The Untold Truth

"I walk through the darkness so that others may see the light."

"But..." I asked, "How can you be in darkness when you are my light?"

With glistening eyes she laughed gently;

Then after lifetimes that lasted a moment she drove away, tail lights shining in my eyes...

And I was left with naught but a whisper:

"For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been'."

Never be so stuck in your ways...

Open yourself to the cleansing fire, and loosen the reins on your journey...

Even in challenging times, never give in, and persevere...

As it says in the good book..."for everything there is a season".

"Be careful when you cast out your demons that you don't throw away the best of yourself." - Friedrich Nietzsche ⚖️🔥

I always loved mythology 🏺✨; something that always stuck out at me was the name of the Devil, our quintessential "modern" bad guy: Satan 😈.

One interpretation is he is the bad guy, the evil in the world, etc. 🌍⚔️ But the essence of the devil (and subsequently demons) I think comes from the meaning of the name "Satan": Adversary.

He's there to challenge and tempt, to poke at the "lower self" innate within all of us... 🔥👁️

He's also there to challenge the righteous fury of God, the "higher self" also innate within all of us... ☁️⚡

So what if, instead of trying to cast out our demons, we acknowledge them, and more importantly, we acknowledge the lessons that they seek to teach us? 🧠💡

Instead of casting out, or of giving in...what if the lesson is to keep balanced ⚖️, and more importantly, to keep true to our Selves 💖, rather than the temptations of 'God' or 'Satan', in whatever form? 🔄🌀

The year of the snake, which officially began yesterday 1/29. Like any snake year, it's a year of transformation.

Everywhere I've been hearing about how something about this year feels different, that it's time to make a change, take some action.

And we all know that change doesn't just happen, it comes from within, a personal motivation. These past couple years this has been my focus, to find my meaning and my Why, and that has influenced already some powerful growth.

Regardless of where you're at, change is always possible. We grow and learn sometimes without even consciously realizing it. Keys to this include consistency and reliability.

Comment below; how will you enact your transformation to reach your next stage this year?
