I so enjoy reading your posts. They always make me think deeply about where I am in this world. I remember perseverating about why some people didn’t like me. My friend, Susan straightened me out. Her confronting me about it helped me understand that not everyone would like me and that was okay. It was at that point that I realized that I had a choice about what I thought. I started to become more comfortable with myself and my choices.
Once I started meditating, I discovered that I had many more choices about how I perceived myself, the world, and how and why I fit in. Mostly I realized that the way I fit in is that I have my own standards and often don’t fit in. I am becoming more comfortable with myself and my choices and the choices change as I learn more. I feel blessed to be myself.
If you hadn’t written this reflection, I would not have figured this out. Thank you so much for your art! And sharing it! ❣️🌹❤️
I’ve been wrestling with how our minds can be loud but not always right. And I read your piece and was reminded that our “knowing” or “gut” or “spidey tingle” can be quiet and is almost always right. Thanks for the reminder.

Yes, that discernment is key, although it's sometimes hard to ignore that louder voice.
Joan, thanks for sharing your experience. I'm grateful that this post resonated with you. ❤️
