I am like all other humans in this imperfect world we live in. I am flesh and bone. I can feel, I can hurt, I can fall, and at times I am helpless and frail and I can cry tears of pain. " Hiding " in life is one way some deal with their pain and hurt, as well as it's a way to protect their friends from truly knowing the suffering they are going through. Life can deal us such heartaches we often wonder why God even brings it into our lives.
Some stumble through life collecting souls as if they were treasures only to be discarded like useless trash we must throw away. That's how they feel they must protect themselves, they use our hearts and souls for their own pleasure, never truly knowing the soul they are using, and thus never knowing how they have hurt that soul.
Souls are not useless in this life, without a soul you are empty.
Sometimes we can be so deeply hurt that we begin this fall into a dark place in our life, in our world that it's where our "Hiding " begins. As a form of protection, something we see as good, healthy and something we must do to survive.
I have been in this place most of my life. Hiding is truly the only source of peace, happiness and truth I had ever known. My one dream in life is that we all find a place in our lives and in our souls that we see we don't have to hide, for others to see and accept that we all have shortcomings, but we are also on a path much the same. We all want mostly the same thing in life. To be loved, accepted for what we are. Imperfect humans, capable of love, of loving, of giving, of sharing, but mostly we want to be accepted, that we all make mistakes and we all cry.... |
