I sit, with my pen and paper. I usually do it when I’m conflicted, grumpy or there’s something bothering me.
The key?
To be transparent with your emotion, without letting your emotion take over.
State your emotion, calmly. Don’t try to hide it: Source doesn’t need you to be joyful all the time! It understands that sometimes, you’re not! (And besides, all emotions are part of the human experience).
And then, just stay “cool”!!!
It’s like having your best friend over, and you’re explaining what’s troubling you. You’re not whining, sobbing, demanding, raging, etc. (even though you can get a little intense haha!).
Neither are you in a bonding mood in which you’re in awe of your friend’s beauty.
You’re rational. Like a detective collecting clues to help you find your answer.
When it’s your friend’s turn to speak, you completely open up and listen. You stay still, letting him/her share his/her depth with you… You take it in, you evaluate, you ask more questions if you need to.
Here’s my story… I chose one situation where my “ego” got a little bumped, because I want you to see how the truth, sometimes, can make you feel a little bad…

(In case you don’t know, The Universe has a lot of humor! It’s playful and you’ll feel the vibe more than you’ll hear the words….! You’ll see ;) !)
- Ok. I know we’ve talked about this already… but I feel like I’m not doing it “right”. I mean, I’m writing things I find really interesting, giving deep thoughts, being as authentic as I can, but it doesn’t seem to work. 88 people following my page, after so many months, we can’t say it’s glorious! Where am I mistaken?
[You’re not mistaken.
You are going against the trend, and it’s wonderful.
Most people want to offer a quick fix, a “Wow” moment, or to experience only beautifully intense emotions.
That’s why you’re going against the trend.
Being authentic is to show up as you are. If you smile, it’s because you truly smile, not because you are trying to smile for the picture.
You’re not talking about excitement, but inner peace, silence, a soft well-being that can become really intense and wonderful, filling the whole world with joy… but it’s not the Joy you’re after.
Now… there’s your attitude.]
- Me? I don’t have an attitude! (*humor*)
(Here, there’s a funny silence, the kind of “Yeah, sure!”!).
[When you write, you are not light, you don’t let go, you don’t just put the words out there without caring about what people will think about you.
You don’t just share: you are attached to the way you’re sharing them, the numbers and, eventually, you worry about how you’ll make a living out of what you are offering. It’s not wrong, contrarily to what some people might say, but it’s not your main goal… even though money is a spiritual motor: to find a way to have it that suits your values, who you are, is crucial. It’s simply that it has to come second… ;) ]
- It's true… I’m “trying” to write what I think is the most important, what could help others, but I’m not really letting it go… And yes, there’s also that desire to make a living out of it. But I understand… I should simply trust, and let go… Is there something I can write differently, then?
[Share what’s the most intimate: our relationship. Those writings, like this one, are the most important.
Show them what it’s like to have a relationship with Me.
Give them all the examples of what’s happening in your life when you’re attuned, the discussions we have, the interactions I’m leading you to have with others…]
- But… wouldn’t it be like bragging? Showing off? I don’t want that… I know what I know, it’s true, but I don’t want to be “more” than anyone. Make them feel like I’m superior, or… I don’t know…
[So, if I understand you correctly, Jesus shouldn’t have done miracles because it means he was “showing off”? (chuckles)].
**End of discussion: point made, and received!!!**
But then, it opened a lot of deep thoughts about how I’ve tried to hide all the knowledge I have about different topics, how I tried to make myself smaller so others would not feel belittle, as I was scared of being perceived as feeling superior to them (a critic I’ve had a few times)… but we should know this: we’re not doing anyone a favor by putting ourselves down, or by not stepping into our beauty. Humility is only to know that we’re not everyone and everything, that we all have our strengths and weaknesses (and to recognize both in ourselves), while being grateful and happy to be who we are.
