Have you ever considered that the very experiences causing you the most pain might someday become your greatest gift to others? This transformative revelation lies at the heart of today's deeply personal exploration of journaling and purpose.
Since 1979, I've documented my life's journey through countless journals—spiral notebooks, leather-bound books, composition notebooks—creating a tangible record spanning over four decades. These aren't just personal artifacts; they've become the foundation of my mission to inspire others through authentic sharing. As Deng Ming-Dao beautifully writes, "Writers write because they must. They hear voices others do not. They listen urgently and they must communicate what they hear." This powerful truth has shown me that our most painful experiences were never meant to be hidden away but shared as beacons of hope for others walking similar paths.
The global evolution of consciousness is forcing all of us to confront our unhealed traumas. Like my cat Sissy who spent twelve years hiding in a bathroom after early trauma, many retreat to emotional safe spaces, afraid to face their wounds. But the rising energetic frequencies on our planet are "pounding on the door of every trigger," making avoidance increasingly impossible. This explains why so many seem agitated or bewildered—they're experiencing internal shifts without understanding what's happening. Your unique combination of life experiences—your personal pattern of traumas, lessons, and victories—equips you to help others in ways no one else can. The very things that irritate you most often point toward your purpose, reflecting either something unhealed within or indicating the problems you came here to help solve. What if you're sitting on your future livelihood, a calling that would light you up every day while serving humanity? I invite you to ponder this question and recognize how your journal entries might transform into the exact medicine another soul desperately needs.
What lessons from your journey might help others if you were brave enough to share them? Subscribe to Free To Just Be and join me on this transformative journey of authentic living and purposeful sharing.
