Expression is closely connected with creation. It's our inner truth being externalized by our natural creative force.
There are a lot of forms in which we express ourselves. Writing poetry, having conversations, explaining concepts, talking about feelings, journaling, suggesting new ideas, dancing, humming melodies, painting, making videos, composing, etc.
Everyone has their preferred ways and maybe some that are more difficult because of blocks or fears. I notice that often speaking about ideas is more challenging for me than writing about them. Writing can even help with realizations, developing concepts, and understanding emotions.
So we could say, that which comes easy to us is where our strength is. That's what feels safer. It's within our comfort zone.
What if we're ready to grow and expand beyond what feels secure? Yes, there will be fear, but also excitement and happy determination. That's how we're able to recognize that it's coming from inspiration and that we're prepared for a challenge.
For a writer, it can be speaking. For someone always only keeping a privite journal, it can be sharing ideas publicly. For some it can simply start by recording your voice or making videos to yourself.
For me it's been evolving. I started with drawing for myself, later sharing with everyone, then writing poetry, recently it's been these blogs and I'm going to be making videos soon.
Expression is vital to our inner balance and wellbeing and it's how we connect to others. Unity is what we naturally are, therefore separating out of fear and keeping to ourselves is not a sustainable and healthy state of being for humans. Let's be brave and move forward towards connection! 💓
