Get
Emotionally Naked!
Ever
feel like you can't "be yourself" in your relationships?
The naked truth is, that has nothing to do with
your partner. That has everything to do with your choice to not
be honest (to not show
up as YOU). And it's not serving you as you think it is.
"But
I can't be completely myself. There are times to not tell the
truth!"
My
friend, let's think rationally for a brief moment (then we
can go right back to insanity I promise). The truth Always,
always rises like cream to the top of the kettle. They will know
who you are. Holding back who you are now not only perpetuates
the lie but also sets your tomorrow up for a rude awakening. And
in the meantime bitterness and crust form because you just can't
ever be yourself!
The
Truth ALWAYS sets you free. And the ultimate expression of the
truth is when you LIVE OUT WHO YOU ARE. Conversely, the ultimate
lie is your hiding out and holding back the real you.
I
think about those whom I admire the most and to whom I'm most
attracted. It's never their "maturity" or their strength
that attracts me as much as it is their humility and their willingness
to just be HUMAN. On the other hand we can all see right thru
those who put forth the facade. You know the ones I'm talking
about? Fake. There's nothing more 
repelling
than fake.
We
are naturally drawn to real, genuine, openness. We are are repelled
by superficial, disingenuous and closed.
Yet
we spend enormous time and energy trying to hide that real side
of ourselves from others in hopes that they'll like us!
Fall
in love
with yourself friend! Recognize every cotton pickin' corner
and crevice of who you are as a God-made beauty. Stand up! Show
it! Be
OK with who you are. And in doing so you'll notice others
attracted to you like white on rice as you experience love and
intimacy on a whole new level.
Experience
the Bliss of being
YOU.
