The world and us

"A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you're not living in alignment; you're not be being true to yourself.” — Steve Maraboli (Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience)

​I have always strived to be myself unapologetically, so it is tough to connect with others when people are out of alignment and when the world is out of alignment. We live in a world of anger and uncertainty, so I understand why this is happening. 

I have to remind myself to be patient, but when my patient is runneth over, I cannot pretend anymore. I am not good at pretending. I know I have triggers to work on, and I don't expect others to be like me. So I also have some work to do, and until then, I will choose the company I feel most drawn to and grow from there.
