I am writing the book so that people can understand me. More importantly, I am writing the book so that people can understand themselves. Be aware of themselves. Understand their affect on other people.
To write the book I must lean into my fear. I must pour salt into my wounds. Not to sting further, but to cauterize the wound. I hope it ends up being a really cool scar. I understand that the wound may get wider and deeper. But, it doesn’t have to. Only the judgement of others can do so. Even then, if I do not accept their attack, as an attack against me and realize they are reacting to their own wounds, only then do I minimize my own pain.
This is the secret. Any pain I feel is my doing. Those that wish to inflect pain, is their own undoing. This is the way.
