Being open is to have your emotions on the outside, your thoughts in your actions.
Not thinking about what to say, but talking. Talking from a place of truth inside yourself. Knowing that what you are about to say will be coming from truth, and not from a place of hidden agendas. Not hidden from anyone else, and not from ourselves.
Do we know why we say the things we do or act the way we do? And if we don’t know, do we at least trust that the words will find their right place when we open our mouths? That they will give a correct image of who we are, of who we want to be and does that match who we perceive ourselves to be? If so, then we can be open. We can be open and we can be free.
But freedom comes at a price. Not knowing what it is that the open person has, others try to possess it. The first way to possess it is by possessing us. If they cannot possess us, they want what we have, and when this too fails they try to take the joy out of our experiences of life by not acknowledging us and what we do.
They catch every opportunity to mention that what we are doing is wrong and that we implicitly are worthless. They do this so that our glow will not make the darkness within them visible to anyone else nor themselves. They do such so that the clear tone that we emit won’t make them realise that they are singing out of tune. But they do it to protect themselves from further harm, and we become the victims of their protection, because it is easier to stain their view of us with the darkness that surrounds them than it is to dispel that very darkness from within themselves.
But it doesn’t work. When we are strong and open it simply does not work because of one reason. And that reason is that we are free. We are free and we are open. In freedom there is Love and in freedom there is Light. And in the light there is no judgement. We know and trust that what we are, and what we do comes from a place of truth. The place of truth that says that I know what I AM. I AM.
