A powerful healing tool can be
allowing yourself to be witnessed by your friends, sharing your pain to a
listening audience.
When we allow ourselves to be witnessed by another, we cannot help but be
transformed by the experience. Whether we are sharing a personal experience,
standing in front of friends to celebrate a special occasion, or expressing our
unbridled joy or sorrow in front of a loved one, we are allowing ourselves to
be seen and experienced in a very intimate way. Not only are we baring
ourselves to someone else, but we are allowing that person to hold a very
specific kind of space with us so this powerful act can take place. To be
witnessed is to let ourselves be seen as we truly are in that moment.
Our friends and loved ones can easily be witnesses for us, if only we are brave
enough to let them.
WELL, "myBELOVEDbrother", in my case, it is "LETTING my BISEXUAL self be seen" but the words and sentiment transfer quite readily!!! *** THANK YOU, again, for uplifting my SPIRIT, enlightening my ENVIRONMENT, and informing my INTELLECT :-) *** LOVINGyou, MINISTER ken lazarus; "theCUSSIN'preacher"
