Excellent insights here. Delighted that you upvoted my post, as it made me accidentally find your blog.
We can't heal wounds unless we expose them to the light. Light is communication, respect, vulnerability and willingness to step into your own world so you can make sense of the others'.
This is so true and you go on to talk about ones inner child too, which i definitely agree with. Society forces us away from that inner child feeling of freedom, fun and no consequences. Those of us who enjoy a drink, often embrace our inner child by messing around and letting our hair down a bit.
I feel we shouldn't need that as an excuse, and should embrace our inner child more freely and laugh at the silly things, play with something childish and embrace your inner child.
I completely agree with you, it is the social pressure of acting like a serious adult all the time, this causing people to become dull, bored and lifeless. If our body has grown and aged, that doesn't mean that our spirit has to. I think of us all as being big kids. Some hide it and suppress it, some embrace it. I have noticed that those who embrace it are happier, more energetic and couldn't care less about what others think and believe. In the end, this is the ultimate freedom. To be what you want when society wants you to be otherwise. Thank you for reading and leaving such a well thought reply!
