“If you bring forth what is within you,
what you bring forth will save you.
If you do not bring forth what is within you,
what you do not bring forth will destroy you."
(The Gospel of Thomas)

Contrarians are not born.
We are slowly baked
in thick, complex, lasagna-like layers
of being misled about everything.
And then being gaslit
about being misled about everything.
Then, your righteous anger is demonized, until
you start to think you are the problem.
And you are!
As well as the solution.
So why stay mad at a world
that merely reflects your deepest need?
When you heal yourself, you heal the world.
When you heal the world, you heal yourself.
💜
To our wholeness.
