I Asked My Partner What Emotion He was Unwilling to Feel
The answer spoke volumes.
The irony of it all.
I asked what emotion you’re unwilling to feel.
“Weak,” you said. “Humans aren’t weak.”
I asked if you were open to doing some “coaching” around that answer. You weren’t.
Funny — the emotion you’re unwilling to feel is the EXACT reason you weren’t ready to create new awareness and dialogue.
Humans ARE weak. Humans are vulnerable, emotional, and fragile. It’s part of the gorgeous array of human characteristics. The yin and yang.
To have strength — one most know weakness.
If you want strength, dear child, start by embracing the feeling you’re unwilling to feel.
..put yourself in situations where you feel weak.
…rise up and embrace conversations and coaching.
…be vulnerable.
…ask more of yourself. Ask others around you for feedback.
…try on radical honesty.
…embrace radical self-acceptance.
You will have moments of weakness and vulnerability throughout our life- and that’s what makes you strong.
If you want to grow stronger than ever before at a faster rate then ever before… start leaning into what makes you unconformable. Enter conversations — especially when they are in a safe space with the person you love. Practice your vulnerability if you ever want to find your true strength.
“Humans are not weak.”
But a human afraid to listen is.
“Humans are not weak.”
But someone unwilling to feel all emotions is.
“Humans are human.”
Welcome to the human experience. Where what you resist is what persists and what you embrace becomes your strength.
