🗝The Key To Unlock Your Desired Change

My laptop is not okay so I’m texting to you 
from my phone today. 

Thank you for bearing with me the limited text size (there’s no function for me to upload any photos!).

Okay, here’s this week’s Wisdom Note
I’ve prepared for you:

You can only change
what you are
willing
to face.

⁣⁣One of my client said this to me at her 5th session with me:

“Looking back, facing my issues isn’t that scary after all. Because I know I’m not alone.” ⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣I remember this moment ⁣ because looking at her, ⁣ I see what Courage looks like.⁣

⁣Courage is ⁣being willing to face⁣ all of ourselves⁣

⁣Even if⁣ we could stay the same,⁣ stay low,⁣ with status quo. ⁣

⁣Especially when it’d be more convenient ⁣⁣ to pretend ⁣⁣everything’s okay. ⁣⁣

Especially when it’d be easier to numb ourselves
with busyness and forget our pain. ⁣⁣⁣

When we stop running, ⁣⁣turn around and face of ourselves,⁣⁣ the sweet and bitter,

the pretty and messy, 

past and present. ⁣⁣

That’s Courage.⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣Like she said, ⁣ it’s not so scary ⁣after all.⁣

⁣It is safe,⁣

when we face what we want to change 
not alone,⁣

but with someone you feel safe with 
and this person *can* help you. 

What are the ‘emotional baggages’ we’ve been talking about past Sundays that you need Courage to face, my dear? 

Is it Fear? Resentment? Guilt? Shame? 
Or even Apathy (numbness and meaninglessness)? 

Next week, I will show you how you can transform these heavy baggages in your journey into the Peace, Freedom, Love and Joy you seek. 

For now, I encourage you to
reflect on the above Wisdom Note. 

Reflect and list:

1) What have you been pretending it’s okay but you know it’s *not okay*? 

2) What do you want to change? 

3) What do you know you need to face in order for (1) to be possible? 

Encouraging you, 

💛Val
