There have been times where I have over identified with the labels of life. It is tempting to try to find security, belonging, peace and safety in a label or person.
If I belong to a group or person then I will be ok. I will be happy. I will be at rest.
However, this rest, joy is already mine. It has been a challenge to embrace both my sexuality and spirituality. Some of this is due to the teachings that I was taught from an early age, some of this struggle comes from the inner voice from inside that does not want to be...(enter label here....).
But the Truth is that I am not a label, I am not my body, I am not an ego. I am spirit born and breathed from God. I am connected to God who is Love, source, peace.....
I have found that when I rest in this truth and purposely connect with it, my life transcends rises above these struggles and I find my true identity.
I also find that I am then able to express my sexuality as the gift that it is. My friendships and relationships are then free to be what they should be, without the pressure of my need for them to provide for me what they never could.
