Too often, we deny our truth — the truth of our feelings, the truth of our fears, the truth of our wants, the truth of our needs — because we believe that they somehow disprove our Brilliance,
but actually,
our Brilliance is in the welcoming of all that we are to simply be; it’s in the compassionate honouring of our fullness; it’s in the holding of our humanness with the grace of allowance.
And you might think that allowance somehow invites us not to grow or to remain stuck in a pattern that is detrimental for our well-being or that of others,
but actually,
compassionate allowance of our truth is what enables growth on a deep level; it’s what instigates transformation within.
A Brilliant friend recently held space for a confession, if you like, of my humanness, and following expression of my truth, I felt shame. I could feel myself wanting to deny everything I had admitted; I could feel regret for being seen.
I felt deeply disturbed, but I knew this was heralding a “growth spurt”, for experience has taught me that when we feel the inner rumblings of disturbance, the tectonic plates of our duality are attempting to give rise to new awareness of our Brilliance.
So, over the following days and weeks, I held that “shameful” part of me in the loving arms of allowance, and as I observed it within my Being, I witnessed a transformation.
The shame was decomposing, gifting me fertile awareness of this truth:
Shame cannot BE when we hold all we are with Unconditional Love, which is, quite simply, allowance; instead, it gives way for the energy of vulnerability to be truly experienced, and there is something immensely powerful about allowing vulnerability, for it is through our vulnerability, through courageously being vulnerable, that we free ourselves to simply be who we are.
This weekend, while I breathed with some of the most beautiful people I’ve ever met, I shed more shame from my truth, exposing the Deep Knowing that when we’re OK with being imperfect, our perfection has freedom to be real-ised, and here, you can read perfection as nothing other than the authentic expression of who we are.
You can be open and easy with your experience of shame in my presence, friends, for I know it well, and I can support you to transform it into fertile awareness of YOUR Brilliance so that you can radiantly shine and simply BE the most authentic expression of who you are.
