there’s almost
nothing to discover

“Other people’s opinion of you does not have to become your reality.”

accept that their opinion
is driven by their perception
which is colored by all
their past experiences
processed or not
and isn’t necessarily
about you at all
“Despite how open, peaceful, and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you as deeply as they’ve met themselves.”
— Matt Kahn
accept where
people are on their own path
without judgment or expectation
“I don’t trust words, I trust actions.”

you are not
who you think you are
who you tell yourself you are
who you want to believe you are
who you want others to think you are
you are
what you actually do
and changing that
begins with
brutal honesty with yourself
facing the truth your actions and choices reveal
about who you are
avoiding no ugly truth
no hard feelings
accepting who you are revealed to be
working diligently to understand yourself
and then out of acceptance and understanding
making new, better choices
over and over
