I learned early that ignoring my inner guide was not an option. Any attempt to override it would prove to be at least miserable if not disastrous. If following the beat of my own peculiar drummer was lonely and uncomfortable, refusing to follow it resulted in suffering for myself and others.

@shrinkthinks Absolutely agree that we should all be tuning into and listening to our inner guidance. However, in those times, when we choose not to, the result is often not only more suffering, but a great lesson learned. It can be seen in a positive light as an opportunity we had to learn what we do NOT want in our lives.
I think I acknowledge that plenty as someone who lives with a singularly unique cancer and I don’t feel any need for every single essay I write to include every thought or idea or experience I or anyone else will ever have. 💁🏻♀️
