Resonating Through Shared Humanity: The Weight That Strengthens

Inner Sanctum

19 Mar

This is where the magic happens. Or at least the awkward self-reflection.

For those weary yet enduring.

Steadfast child, you have won the day. You may not see it as a victory, yet your survival of it means another day you remain unbroken. Your resilience knows no bounds, you sweet and persistent child.

I know you are being told that if it hurts, you should stop, and yet it is a demonstration of your power and an acceleration of your position. It is certainly true that in other places you would flourish faster, but here you learn patience, resilience under fire, and a sharp intellect to cut through bullshit with compassion.

Sweet child, the harshness of the world is not to be avoided, and it is important to be where you are tested, as it allows your empathy and intelligence to be forged under duress. Imagine how free you will be once the weights are lifted — the nimbleness, agility, and strength you will exhibit. Even if you cannot imagine it, I can, and it is glorious.

Should the passage of time flavour your mind with the delusion that you cannot be free should you choose, let me remind you that the world is yours to experience through your own eyes. It isn’t to be taken, nor hoarded. Therefore, this weight is a choice, a resistance training you choose to be stronger. You choose this path such that you are challenged by strife, such that you can overcome it.

This narrative is yours, sweet child. If it is not where you wish to be, we may change it to begin a new era.

“Imagine how free you will be once the weights are lifted, the nimbleness, agility, and strength you will exhibit.”
