"Self Discovery 2"

Searching for meaning, searching for worth, I am directed inward…  to excavate through the layers of who I thought I was: resentment, anger, jealousy, guilt, sadness and shame. To find that my identity is none of these emotions but rather a beautiful spirit that waits just beneath.

As I wondered why it took me so long  to find my true self I heard my spirit’s voice say~  “Quietly I have waited for the rage of ego to subside, for my voice is gentle and not easily heard over the rant.
