Trust

I thought my greatest life lesson was learning how to be patient. But when I drilled down deeper on what that means, I learned that I was patient, but what I lacked was trust.

Trust in myself. Trust in others. Trust in God, Creator, Universe, Higher Power, Source of all that is. 

So, I drilled down deeper to find out why trust wasn't a strength for me. I didn't have to go far into my mind to know the answers. My childhood memories conjured up enough reasons for distrust to be present in my now. 

Recognizing that all those emotions were nowhere else except in my brain was the aha moment I needed. They exist only because I allow them to exist. They are not a part of my now. It was okay to let them go.

Trusting myself allowed me to learn to trust others. And it also gave me patience to give space to others for them to learn to trust their selves. Everything always comes back around to self. Be patient. What will be, will be. <3
