Empathizing With The Enemy
The beginning of my shadow work journey started with a heavy hitter. The first challenge was to write a message to the person who hurt you the most and explain why you said what you said. I actually had a harder time than I expected on that part alone. Until I reached the second challenge, create a visual of how I see myself (which I did on my phone). After some thorough self evaluation around my own self image, as well as concluding who’d honestly hurt me the most and the reason why what they’d done hurt me to the extent that it did, I was able to come to this ultimate conclusion: We should all take the effort to empathize with our enemies before internalizing what made them an enemy, so then us as people can can have an easier time dealing with our own faults and forgiving ourselves for past mistakes. I was personally able to see comparison in areas where I felt I lack and how that affected my interactions, next to the actions of my said “enemies”. I could see where the behavior possibly rooted from. However I’m no psychologist, merely an observer and an analyst

The Art of Security
It starts with you. That may sound very clique, especially when speaking on the topic of security within one's self. Honestly, however, there is no other real sense of security in the world. Now, this is coming from the girl that tried everything. From money to internet clout, I used every avenue to try and fill the void I had. At the time, what I didn’t understand was that there were things from long ago that created that void, and until I addressed those things I would never find the new things that could truly fill the void. I feel a few things played a part in this, but it all boiled down to a lack mentality that I didn’t realize I was feeding. By "lack mentality" I mean the mindset that led me to believe I solely was not enough. Comparing myself to others or listening to what others think of me and taking that as bible were only adding fuel to the fire I felt was burning away all the beautiful parts of me. Giving people the role of God in my life was almost the death of me. Then I realized (slowly but surely) that no one knows me better than I do. I spend every second of every day with myself, and no one else on this earth can say they have that much experience with me. The moment you realize you are all you need for you, you will see the things in your life shift for the better.
