The older I get in my human form, the more I realize that becoming an “evolved” wo/man doesn’t mean that you don’t get angry at times. It doesn’t mean you don’t experience fear. It doesn’t exempt anyone from feeling sad sometimes.

Becoming evolved is not an escape from being human.

It’s being honest and open with yourself, learning your boundaries, and embracing your vulnerabilities, for that is where your true strength resides. It’s a knowing that these things can and do happen and that you have the tools to see things through different perspectives, allowing you to gather the higher lessons by responding differently to situations that in the past, might have taken you out of your full power in that moment.

Your power isn’t to rise above being human. It’s not to not experience “negative” emotions, thoughts, and self-talk. It’s not like the stories of masters who can magically withhold their anger.

Your power is to experience everything even more fully.

Because then you see that everything is a gift.
