awaken to love
we all have a pre-set role in the world, and when I talk about this, I am not referring to our Soul's Purpose, which is something we have to consciously commit to, for us to see its full potential unfold. What I'm talking about is the role we receive from our childhood upbringing, the way experiences shape us, and how our reactions to these events shape our character. On top of that individual experience, we have to consider the environment we grew up with, the challenges we went through and the people we learned from. How did the adults act around us? Were they intentional, were they coping most of the time? What example did we follow? what ideals did we focus on? were we able to distinguish our truth from what we were presented and act on it or did we give it up in order to conform to the reality we were fed? Were we trading our own inner values with external expectations that were sown on us, also unbeknown to us? All of this may dawn on the person like a slap once they fully see it... once they fully see themselves. But that slap is just the beginning of something beautiful. In fact, it takes very little to awaken from that role and take over with our true selves and that is what I call: awaken to love.
Sure, this also means working through discomfort and trauma hidden in our body-mind system but the reward is priceless.

if before we acted through the identity patterns, the personality's perception and ego mind limited view, now we act through our spirit's vision, soul's voice and move with heart's pure intentions.
in a world where the separated and fragmented self seems to apparantly have taken over, it only takes each individual to awaken to their true selves to reset, shift and harmonize their own world. and if this sounds too weird, think about how each of us carries an entire universe within ourselves. i believe that the more people are able to harmonize their universe, the more its harmonizing effect will ripple out and affect others positively, reminding them what is possible. All it takes is to know yourself, to know your truth and move forward with it. It isn't a case that of the most clichè advice is: "follow your heart", for your heart holds the key to Love's door, but wait, it's already opened, you only gotta walk through it!
and remember: go beyond your identity, who you thought you were and return, remember & embody who you truly are.
