Taking a deeper look into who we are is akin to a treasure hunt.
We fear it because we're venturing into unknown territory and discovering undesirable qualities and defenses along the way.
Narcissism,
Envy,
Blame,
Projection.
But we also come face to face with our true purpose.
We see strengths that were previously perceived as weaknesses.
We connect with our inner child,
Our sensuality,
The fire in our belly.
We're able to hear our higher voice and negotiate with our shadow,
Our lower,
Darker self.
But we have to mean it first.
We have to acknowledge our shadow's existence and integrate it into our conscious awareness and learn who we are as a whole.
