Let that one sink in for a moment.
How does that statement make you feel?
I will be honest., there were a few years in my life when I became a gold medal marathon runner. I ran from
my past. I ran from the truth. (You guys sometimes that shit really hurts.) I ran from uncertainty and anything I couldn’t personally maintain control of. I ran from discomfort. I resisted change like the plague and I continuously pushed people away to keep myself “safe.”
I maintained a pretty, perfectly polished image. Proudly, I measured my worth and my value off of my level of exhaustion and how “together” my life seemed.
I was 21 with an awesome career and a life most people work decades to have when my lack of feeling and notorious running turned into missing..
Missing purpose
Missing passion
Missing vulnerability
Missing connection
Missing love
In trying to protect myself by escaping my feelings, I deprived myself of the essentials that make life, worth living. A mistake I vowed to never let happen again.
There, began my journey of inner healing and what it means to be truly happy.
Are you acknowledging all your feels lately???
