Be Who You Are

Be who you are.  It’s been a refrain moving through my head all damn day. Like an earworm you can’t unplug, the sound keeps getting louder and louder.  Nice thought. Unless one has no fucking clue just exactly who that is.

I have a basic idea of who I am. Every time. I connect with healing aspects, and walk with a foot on either side of the divide. Maybe because of being born associated with so close to cusp(if one was to go by signs) or maybe I just choose to select that which is familiar to me. Why would I do that? We often associate with the familiar because even if its painful, its something we know. Does that make it healthy or productive?  Not always.

I’ve accumulated names each time..some fit me..others do not .  Some feel like a too large mantle draped on my shoulders.  They are uncomfortable to me even though they could easily fit.  I have friends who teasingly call me names that I back away from and yet looking at what I tend to do..then it is accurate..to a point.  We are all students and as such even professors cannot be limited in their quest for knowledge.

While I recognize my limitations, I see many who tend to puff themselves up into the “knower of of ALL things/paths”.  One kind of has to look suspect at that if you are looking for a teacher to help you along. If they are going to pull in all aspects of new age into a Diaspora that relies heavily on entities not found in a new age path, you should probably look elsewhere. If you are seeking a mentor for a specific path, then be careful who and what you come in contact with.  There are many out there willing to take advantage, for a price,who will sell you anything you want..or think you do.

My suggestion? Look inside and see who you are..really.Be who you are. It takes time to realize this little gem of a lesson.  Sometimes we don’t pay enough attention to the guides who whisper, often scream in our ear …But eventually most of us wake up, take a step back, grab a glass of rum and get down to the business at hand.
