Writing on the Wall Part Two
Something to know about changing your life, your Self, is that is not comfortable. It isn’t easy, it isn’t a key to automatic happiness (though it can bring you happiness), and there will probably be more than one time that you just want to quit exploring and go back to what you know.
Because, after all, isn’t the evil you know better than the evil you don’t?
This path isn’t always going to be ‘aha!’ and ‘wonderful!’ because it’s likely that you’ll be facing past events and beliefs that are upsetting. You may realize that people you once held close to you are not actually good for you. You may have to leave behind what you used to love.
If you’re not willing to do that, I am not going to judge you. Change is hard. Even if what you have is hell, it’s still hard to pick up and head for the unknown heaven.
Going back to the graffiti on your wall, if you’ve ever tried to clean anything like that, you’ll know it takes a lot of time and a lot of scrubbing. Just remember, though, that all that scrubbing, as hard as it is, can reveal some truly beautiful things underneath.
Why am I warning you yet again? I suppose it’s simply from personal experience. When you start working with these sorts of things, you can often open issues and things that don’t particularly like being ignored once they have opened.
You may experience memory triggers, needing to change your environment, and even needing to change the people you associate with. Not easy, by any means.
But if you’re ready, then best wishes for your journey.
