I know how it feels

I know how it feels to be fighting my feelings
Resisting what there is
Being contracted
Hiding.

I know how it feels to be completely naked
Vulnerable to the bone
Fully exposed
Open.

I know how scary it is to open up to another human being
To be fully witnessed in my sorrow, anger and pleasure
To be touched
To be held.

I know how confronting it is to really take a thorough look inside myself
The difficulties that arise when I fully allow myself to feel
To feel all that I have been hiding
To feel my all my fears
To feel my pain
To feel myself.

I know how it feels.

And I bow down in awe
To every single being
Who is showing up
Embracing what is
Doing their work
And letting go

I’m there with you.
Thank you.
