"It’s impossible to account for the kind
of wealth that self-knowledge produces. It’s something that never leaves
us. Something that no situation can take from us. Something that we
have to earn through intense effort.
Self-knowledge doesn’t come from the
pretty pictures that we post. It doesn’t come from presenting what is
pleasing. It doesn’t come from the platitudes that crumble in our hands
when we need something real to hold onto.
Cures come from the most curious sources.
Seek out the ones that you need in this
moment. Seek out what keeps you grounded. Seek out the spaces and places
that allow you to take a break. Seek out what helps you to make use of
your struggles and what gives your more painful experiences a meaningful
context.
There is always more to learn about
ourselves. More to uncover. More to empty out. More to make peace with.
Your ability to accompany yourself on this transformational journey is
fundamental to your well-being. Your ability to tend to the less
glamorous aspects of your life can keep you on track. Your ability to
keep up with the metaphorical and literal chores can make a world of
difference. Sometimes self-care is excruciatingly boring but doing those
menial tasks can be undeniably healing."
