Get Naked! That's what they wanna see
anyway, so show 'em!
Now read a bit more before you go do
something we'll both regret.
You know what we love most in folks?
Their humanness. Their REAL side. Their down-home barefoot
lovable selves. We're doing this love thing backwards I'm
telling ya! My efforts to show only my
"polished" side while hiding the side that's
real, always brings me the opposite of what I'm trying to
get. What is it that we all want? LOVE! Intimacy! Respect!
Admit it. It's OK. A ton of you are so convinced you'll
never have love, that you've sworn off even wanting it!
Holy cow! Love and life are calling you my friend, waiting
for you to come play! But you gotta show up...all of you. |
INTO ME SEE. That's what
brings about Intimacy. Letting you see into me. The real
me. Not the other me that I put in front of you when I
want you to like me. EMOTIONAL NUDITY.
"But I could never show
him that side of me! He might leave!"
Umm. And your concern
is...what?
I once felt that I couldn’t “be myself” with her.
The naked truth is, that had nothing to do
with her. That had everything to do with my choice to not be
honest (to not show up as me).
"But I simply can't be completely myself.
There are times to not tell the truth!"
My friend, let's think rationally for a brief moment (then
we can go right back to insanity I promise). The truth
Always, always rises like cream to the top of the kettle. They
will know who you are. Holding back who you are now not only
perpetuates the lie but also sets your tomorrow up for a rude
awakening. And in the meantime bitterness and crust form because
you just can't ever be yourself!
The Truth ALWAYS sets you free. And the
ultimate expression of the truth is when you LIVE OUT WHO YOU
ARE. Conversely, the ultimate lie is your hiding out and holding
back the real you.
We are naturally drawn to real, genuine, openness. We are
however repelled by superficial, disingenuous and closed.
Yet we spend enormous time and energy trying to hide that
real side of ourselves from others in hopes that they'll like
us!
Fall in love with yourself
friend! Recognize every cotton pickin' corner and crevice of who
you are as a God-made beauty. Stand up! Show it! Be OK with who you
are. And in doing so you'll notice others attracted to you like
white on rice as you experience love and intimacy on a whole new
level.
