Raw honesty

Recently I was thinking of that Jim Carrey movie called “Liar Liar” in which Jim’s character becomes unable to tell a lie.

Raw vulnerable honesty,

Not a space easy to navigate through…

I began to wonder,

What would happen to the world if that became true for everyone on the planet?  Chaos? Fighting? or Deep healing?

Probably all of the above.

What would happen in your life if you practiced raw vulnerable honesty?  Who would speak differently to?  What would you divulge that you hadn’t let cross your lips? What words of love might you speak? What relationships would end? Whose hand would you reach out for?

I say raw vulnerable honesty, not critical thoughts for a reason. These two are very different.

Who might you call up to talk to? To whom might you divulge that you have been hurt by them in the past?

In a world of facades, I can only negotiate my own honesty. I must first be honest with myself. Then, I must be both courageous and vulnerable to share my truth compassionately when it wants to cross my lips.

For me, I only fear the “perceived” chaos. For me, I know it would be a path to deeper self-respect.

Honesty

and

Transparency

and likely eventually deeper love.

Shall we try this for a month? I am going to hold this in my awareness for the month of August waking each day and saying,
”Let me show raw vulnerable honesty to myself and others today.”

I’ll let you know at the end what evolves….
