Probably not in all parts of the world but it's always a risk worth taking. #QuoteMeSunday #BeAllOfYou #KylieMcBeath https://www.instagram.com/p/B1UCjcUnck9/?igshid=rqtr383n3qd6

How bold one gets when one is sure of being loved. - Sigmund Freud

Security. A secure base. A foundation. An emotional safe haven. 

The freedom to be REAL. Seen. Heard. Supported. Understood. 

When I was growing up, I remember hearing this over and over, “don’t ever depend on anyone.”

Fear. Mistrust. Separation.

This mantra became deeply en-grained in my mental operating system. Self-reliance was KING. I thought, if I don’t need anyone then I will be safe, secure.. what they didn’t say is that you’ll also be lonely, disconnected and exhausted. Not to mention the lack of vulnerability needed to play it safe in this mental groove. 

Having emotional needs - security, emotional support, safety - does NOT make you weak, it makes you human. We are ALL sensitive beings, some just hide/ repress it better. Being able to rely on yourself is crucial yeah, but having a community of people - or just ONE person who backs you is like being aboard the express train towards connections, freedom, intimacy and bliss. 

The feelings of loneliness and separation blanket our planet today - keeping our heads down and hearts closed - this is not what we came here to do. We do need each other. We thrive on connection. We heal because of it. We come alive in it. Be this anchor for someone. 

A thread of life. A lifeline to Love. 

It’s the messy that teaches us what we need most. The vulnerable moments shared that thread us back together. The hug that lifts us back up. The smile that reminds us of the innocence in you - me - we. 

So as we continue to rise and stand together, grounded in the truth of our interconnectedness - I say, be bold.

This is by far the best I have ever came across. Word for word.
