If Your Compassion Is Missing This, You're Doing It Wrong

By Evan Sanders


You will find peace in touching and soothing your deepest wounds. You will find your true self. You will find who you were meant to be.

It's really okay to not be okay.

Because really, as much as we pretend, sometimes it isn't okay.

Sometimes you're not okay, and you don't have to put on a smile trying to convince everyone you're alright.

Sometimes, things really do hurt you...badly...and you don't have to pretend that you're unwoundable.

We all are. That's what makes us human.

While we all have different lives, we all suffer in very similar ways and all have cuts and bruises on our hearts.

But this is beautiful because it's all something that we share. If we were all perfect and had no scars, our lives would all be incredibly dull and boring.

But you never get anywhere by being fake. You have to be real. You have to be so real that the world sees you for who you truly are.

Every time you try to pretend, your soul knows your lying. You're cheating on your true nature and are completely out of alignment with what you know is right.

The greatest healing is done with honesty, compassion, and love towards yourself. If we can turn our compassion towards ourselves and heal old wounds, we allow ourselves to take on the pains of others with compassion as well.

But when we avoid our own suffering, we will continue to suffer endlessly.

Every single day you have to be willing to confront your deepest fears and be willing to heal the wounds that are asking for your attention.

Because in the end, if you take this journey, you will find out that the fears you had weren't so big at all. There were just shadows dancing in the night trying to make you believe they were something else.

Never worry about heading into the dark...

You are the light.

And as the light, you will illuminate even your greatest of worries.
