What is the most important thing to you?
Freedom? Love? Autonomy?

What do you want?
To be free?
What does it mean to be free?
What will it take to set yourself free?
How can you achieve true freedom?

To me..
Freedom is forgiveness.
Freedom is love.
Freedom is autonomy.
Above all, freedom is acceptance..

Accept your reality for what it is
And make choices
Accept your past and move forward
But learn from it
Accept yourself
Fall in love with you
Accept that you'll never have control
And flow with it

Acceptance, what is that?
To me..
Acceptance means to understand
To see
To know
To believe..

What stops you? Fear? Ignorance? Denial?
It is scary to further your awareness and come to terms with your truth.

How can we develop within such boundaries?
Courage, bravery.. Above all it's desire.

Desire. Do you really want this or do you just know you want this?
Wanting something and knowing something are two different things..

What drives you? Is it others? Yourself? Success? Status? Authority? Money?
No really! Please!
Be honest.. Actually ask yourself.. What honestly fuels you?
9 times out of 10 you will find the fuel to be empty. A false sense of motivation that runs out quickly and leads you to a dead end.

What you want vs. the method you're applying do not add up. There is a wholesome path waiting for you and it starts with reflection, awareness and support. You have the ability to become a better and more pure version of yourself... Are you gonna take it?
