Weakness vs. Feelings: A Story Pt. 1

“I’m not showing you weakness. I’m showing you my feelings. There’s a difference.”

It’s clear he’s positioning himself.

“I’m not showing you weakness. I’m showing my feelings. Take care with them.”

I am in an argument. Now.

We didn’t start off that way. In an argument. But here we are now. Arguing. For what?

I’m sharing my feelings and he’s in pity mode.

No, motherfucker, is what I want to say. But I’m not going to. No, motherfucker, these are feelings. I’m a human being. Do you know them?

He doesn’t. I know this. But it still makes me wonder, what is he made of? Tar, pepper and glue? Like some strange papier mache?

He is human too, no? But feelings are strange to him. He doesn’t prize feeling.

But I don’t dare stoke that fire. I can feel myself tensing up; wanting to get harsh with him to protect myself. No, I’m not interested in going there – diminishment. He doesn’t deserve punishment. Damage beyond recognition. He’s far more than that. He’s worthy of his life. Worthy of mine.

What do I do to get out of punishing mode? Sit for a minute.

So I do.

(To be cont’d)

I consider myself fierce bliss, because I support everyone's revolution and evolution to theirs. It's not about happiness in a false front. It is about a connection to who you are that feels most authentic to you. The word, Authenticity, can be found in so many formulas these days, but authenticity is not a concept or something to be found only in someone else's tutelage. It cannot be given to someone. It must be sought out in the way only each of us can within ourselves. Each day, in my own life, I seek grace... and I find it. Bliss is a fount for us all. I'm here to share my story. If anyone finds themselves reflected in my journey, they are welcome to whatever benefit it brings. We all need a little embrace, and I'm here, embracing bliss so that you may embrace your own.
