So, I thought a lot about writing this page.
In fact, I have wanted to do it for a long time
But I always got caught up in, what will I write? who is my audience? will they like what I say? Is it arrogant to write a blog about myself?
So recently I had the good thought to stop thinking so much. hehe
In my traveling and learning I heard the phrase said a few times that "words from the heart go into the heart"
beautiful
So I have decided that I am breaking my over-analytic habits and I just going to write, from the heart! (hopefully)
So, this big idea that has come up over and over in my life is that you just have to be yourself...
look inside for how to act, not at others. decide what I want! What's my style! etc.
And of course I have always agreed with this... who wouldn't?! But... have I actually actualized this??
do I just try and fit in, keep the peace, not-rock the boat... and even when I rebelled, was it making me be more me?... or was I just acting out? Am I just conforming to non-conformists?
and the second thing that keeps happening to me is... Whenever I break through the barriers, the defense mechanisms, the want to conform, the timidness, the self-consciousness etc. and I decide to speak my mind! usually that's when the most connection happens! When let out my inner voice, the truth in my heart etc. that's when I fit in even more! In a real way! Not some fecade in order to be socially accepted!!! Even though I thought speaking my truth would get me ridiculed, other people respected me more!
so, hopefully I'll do that on this blog
and hopefully we will have some spark in common
and hopefully my theory is right, that we are connected on a deep level, and experience many similar things
and hopefully I dont get to caught up in my head, even though this is a lot of left brain thinking type stuff
and hopefully you get something out of this and enjoy
and hopefully it empowers you to share from your inevitably unique life experiences
WARNING: BEAUTIFUL TORAH.!
The Jews break up the Torah in to sections called "parshaot."
The third "parsha" is the story of Abraham/Avram leaving his his fam, his crib and his homeland
in Hebrew that parsha is called "Lech-Le'cha"
In the most literal translation it means "Go" (Lech) "To you" (Le'cha)
many people would say... Well it loosely means "you go"... As in "you" [Avram] "go" somewhere else.
Buuut, it actually makes a cool message if we take it literally... "go to you"
the reason for this journey is for you to go to yourself! look inside! discover you potential!
WOOOOO les do it
