Who am I, really?
I recently went on astrology.com and had a Mayan astrology reading done on myself. The findings were quite interesting and disturbingly accurate. It accentuated my free spirit, my perfectionism, my self-competitiveness, my stubbornness, my essential need for freedom in all my relationships, my desire for excitement and my need to create it when it is not there. It was a bit eerie. As it described exactly what I am going through right now. These are not attributes of self to me, but I suppose if I am to overcome them, I have to admit them. That is the difficult part, but a necessary one.

Hey Yahni. I'm not sure why you or I, we both, feel this unnecessary need to apologize for our free spirits or need for freedom. Independence.
I've been berating myself lately for being happy in the life I've worked hard to create for my son and I and my dire need for personal space and continued independence.
Why am I apologizing for that?
Why are you?
Shame on us both.
I love and admire and respect your free spirit. You, stubborn? Love that too. So long as you don't cut off your nose to spite your face. I'm guilty of that because I'm, uhh, stubborn. :-)
Spirit and tenacity and independence is what you NEED right now. I hope no one is making you feel guilty for needing or cultivating those self empowering traits. ???
Sometimes, hon, a person will tell you he or she loves your independent and free spirit but then don't have the inner strength or sense of security to feel confident within the realm of your spirit.
I don't know if that makes sense.
Love,
A
Perfect sense! Your'e right, shame on us. But I still need to cultivate these characteristics in a healthy manner,in a way that doesn't desicrate another person, but still keeps me intact. God, I love you. And you are so needed in my life right now. Thank you for being you.
I know exactly what you mean! Cultivate these traits in a healthy manner. Yeah. Exactly. Just don't allow anyone make you feel guilty for having such a strong spirit. It's why you're here, because you're strong, and you're spirited, and I think independence is an awesome trait. Especially for women. Look. I love you too! Hang in there! I'm totally thinking about you all the time.
:-)
I agree, don't apologize for your need for independence and freedom. You can't make everyone happy, if you try to, you are only lying to yourself or other people. You need to except yourself for who you are and know you are good.
