Mature and Courageous Lover of Truth

Have you been feeling more and more called to speak up, speak your needs, speak your truth?

Courage and Maturity are two essential qualities to cultivate on our spiritual journey when we begin to express our Truth.

I have never been short on courage, but I am witnessing how finally my maturity is helping me refine how I express my truth. 

Over the years, I would throw a tantrum, leave/abandon, or sulk and rebel when my truth was not heard. This was the way the inner Protector in me, fended for my truth.

We all have these protector parts in us. 

Sometimes, that protector part acts out by getting defensive and argumentative because she/he is hell bent on ensuring our Truth is not tampered with. 

Sometimes that protector part creates a protective barrier around our truth so no one can see it, touch it, hurt it but we grow silent and invisible as a result.

What strategy does your Protector adopt?

These days with a bit more maturity under my belt, I pause and witness with love, the Protector part in me trying ferociously and furiously to protect my truth. And then I lovingly assure her how much I love her and how she can trust me – that I’ve got this whole new courageous way to honour my truth.

As the Lover of my Truth, I assure my Protector part that:

I am a stand for my truth

I am a protector of my values

No one can deny me my full acceptance of my truth

I can trust in myself, to be a stand and advocate for my truth

If someone reacts, challenges or dismisses my truth sharing, I can see how they too are reacting from their Protector parts. I do not judge them nor blame them for their protector strategies. I give them space and bear witness to their own need to feel safe.

I know, that they too have a protector part that is trying to protect them and my LOVE extends to that part within them too.

Yet, in that space holding for other to feel safe, the fire of my truth is tended to, by the knowing that I will never walk away from what is important to me. I will never abandon this part of me. Yet I don’t need to go into a full-scale war to protect my truth nor do I need to deny my truth to make others feel comfortable.

So, the spiritual journey offers us the opportunity to mature – we grow up from being the Protector of our truth, to a Courageous Mature Lover. Loving all parts within and honoring our truth as a result.

Become the Lover and let your truth set you free.
