“Sometimes the truth is right in front of you, but people want so badly to believe it’s a lie, they don’t look any closer.”

I would politely ask him to tell his god to fix the world it created instead, because young people might not have enough time nor money to fight corporations. Then there's the problem of getting arrested and face jail for protesting against injustice! #fuckreligion

He can do no wrong
What he says then, MUST be true
Truth telling, be damned

Validation is a lie. It puts your power outside of you and makes how you feel about yourself somebody else's responsibility.

When you need to be seen by other people it means you're not seeing yourself.

When you need to be heard by other people it means you're not hearing yourself.

When you need to be loved by other people it means you're not loving yourself.

The simple truth is that for as long as you don't do these things for yourself first they will not show up in the people around you. The minute you give them to yourself you will find them out there in the world too.

Yes, humans want connection with other people. That is built in. It is the idea that you need it and that something is wrong with you if you don't have it that gets you into trouble.

The idea of validation is a wounded ego construct that gives you a reason to feel crappy about yourself. It's a perpetual loop because no matter how much visibility you have, you can still feel like crap. You can get 5 million shares of your viral Facebook post and still feel un-validated within yourself.

Social media validation is not going to make you feel better about yourself. If it does it's artificial and temporary. If you ever lost the external validation without fixing your internal world first, it would be a really hard landing back into the old wounds that were never healed.

The external world will not fix the internal struggle for you because it can't. You have to fix the internal struggle for yourself and it does not rely on what's happening around you.

When you have a conversation with somebody and you don't feel seen or heard, it makes you feel like crap.

What do you do with that in your head?

Can you recognize the other person can't give you that, probably because they can't do it for themselves yet?

Or do you blame them for not hearing you?

Do you take it out on your self-worth?

You went looking for something outside of yourself and you didn't find it. So now what?

Give it to yourself and stop blaming the world for what you don't have within yourself yet.

Stop the never ending loop of blame, shame, guilt, and victimization based on what other people can and cannot do for you.

Your power is within you.

Go find it.

Love to all.
