When clarity finally comes, it is so important to not be talked out of it by voices that are not our own. So often, when we are making difficult choices…other people, other forces and other messages are completely opposed to the decision that is best for our own life. Change is uncomfortable…..and we resist change in others…often as much as we resist change in ourselves.
Sometimes we just have to keep sacred things to ourselves until our resolve, decision or goal is not feeling so wobbly and timid and fragile. Sometimes we have to give it time to grow and to become strong and solid and clear before it is safe enough to share it.
Remember the peace you felt when the decision was finally made. Remember the clarity you felt when you knew the answer for sure. Remember that you knew it was right. What made it muddy was the outside opinions, preferences and judgments that really have no business making these kinds of decisions for your one beautiful, precious life.
Stay strong. You know the way to go. You know what to do.
It won’t be easy…but it will be worth it.
