There are so many ways to live a life… so many opinions on how one is “supposed” to think and believe and behave. I see few examples I would wish to follow. I suppose the people I find most admirable are those who are still uncertain, who don’t claim to have found “the way”, who are always searching and have yet managed to find some kind of peace.
I err a lot in my thinking, I know that. I have led myself into some dark labyrinths of doubt and despair in my own mind. But I must follow the call of my soul. I must know the truth for myself and not by the word of another.
I still feel lost in many ways. Broken. Afraid. Afraid to bloom and watch the world around me change. The metamorphosis—I can’t come to the other side of it without You. For one, it can’t be about me, because I have the worst anxiety about things being centered around me. And also, I need your strength. I don’t know much, but I know that I can’t go this life alone.
”Rather than trust our intuition, our talent, our skill, our desire, we fear where our Creator is taking us with this creativity. Rather than paint, write, etc., and see where it takes us, we pick up a block. Blocked, we know who and what we are: unhappy people. For most of us, happy is terrifying, unfamiliar, out of control, too risky!” - The Artist’s Way - Julia Cameron
