"Comfort and Joy."
" The closer we get to the core of our heartache, may feel more intense, more sad, but different is true. When we face our heartache with a certain kind of truth, not masking it, it's almost unbearable. But what can come with that is as my teacher told me, where the river merges with the ocean and we merge into something bigger, into our more sublime being.
I'm not so sure about "letting go" - yes we need to let go, but I've been contemplating this idea. It's not so simple. Our ego doesn't just let us do this without a fight. So more unwanted emotions arise. You just need reminders of what a glorious young woman you are. You have such a big heart - it's been messed up a bit and you agreed in some way to agree to other's misunderstanding of your heart. You haven't believed in yourself enough to throw off the misconceptions - people haven't seen your goodness. So time to find people who will.
I love your goodness. Your sweetness. Your openness. I love you and your pain. You are more "normal" than most people, in my opinion! How about a little chuckle over that!!!
Sending you gobs of comfort and joy.
