Say it out loud
I recently had a meeting up with some friends who I had not seen in a while. Our meet up fueled my soul.
We sat around explaining the details of our lives. So much had happened. As I listened to the stories I was filled with mixed emotions. It was all information that could have been shared at any point before our meeting. It was also some sensitive information we thought we had to deal with on our own.
As we expressed our inner struggles, I realized that repeatedly someone would say, “oh I had that similar issue and I thought it was just me.” It hurts me to hear that. My follow up question remains, “how long has this been going on without hearing something. “
It is my solemn hope that as the minds of this time continue to evolve, we will see an opening of the conversation. It is the conversation of understanding and relatability. It is a conversation of openness. Openness to be the supportive team player.
I will continue to encourage the open conversation. I will continue to reveal the healing opportunity in open discussion. I will continue to show how much a simple conversation can optimize living life.
Continue living happy and well.
