Self Expression…
I use the words SELF EXPRESSION in so many ways. It is how we express OURSELVES to the world around us. It is how we show up. It is what we give to others because every interaction is an exchange. A give and receive. So it is important we are aware of how we present ourselves. It is something to be mindful of because it is how you are seen and felt by those around you. I strive to use my words the best I can to express myself clearly to others so there is no energy conflict. If I feel something I say it with love, compassion, and openness for feedback. Communication is key. Not all are open and receptive to this way and that is ok. It is just one tool we are all capable of and if not we can learn if we choose. I choose to do my best and always work on my communication skills. Take a moment to ask yourself, if I am feeling uneasy about something someone said to me and you did not say anything. That could build resentments, discomfort in the air, confusion to yourself and those around you, and send off some conflicting vibes. Wouldn’t it be easier to get clarification? Easier said than done but with practice anything is possible. If you feel you said something that could have offended someone in some way it is your responsibility to make the correction if you choose. Do not expect people to have the ability to read your mind. If you didn’t say it they probable don’t know. That is why it is also important that when we feel love it is important we share that with the person. I know for me I do not want to leave this world with things left unsaid especially to my loved ones. We never know if we are going to get that opportunity. I lost one of my best friends end of 2024 and I miss him very much. John rest in peace my brother… But one thing I know in my heart is there was nothing left unsaid good or bad. We didn’t always agree on everything but we managed to say what needed to be said. It was a genuine friendship and I was lucky for the experience. God rest his soul. Know that when we don’t say what we need to say, others can feel your inner conflict. Problem is they don’t know why it is there because you chose not to speak your truth. Then there is uncomfortable space for yourself and those around you. It is important to learn how to speak our truth for others yes but mostly for ourselves. At the end of the day you are hurting yourself by not. It is a waste of time, energy, and space. It creates disconnect, isolation to yourself, and those around you. Then there is awkwardness in the air. No one likes an awkward environment. Energy POLLUTION which is not good for anyone. So next time, stop, think, process, and find a way to communicate if the relationship is important to you. If it’s not then keep it moving because LIFE is too short and we only have one! We can’t control everything and everyone around us but we can choose to control ourselves. Be mindful and respectful to your loved ones and others. It will help bring peace, wholeness, fulfillment, to the energy(Air) quality to YOUR environment(World).
