Inner child. What does this phrase mean to you? What comes to mind? I am sure by now you have heard this phrasing and I have no doubt many of you are diving into working on this aspect of you. I believe, simply put, we are all children of Earth. Yes, we can say children of the universe, and Infinity and beyond, but for the purpose of this blog I am keeping it contained to Earth.

We all come into this life an innocent child. Dependent upon the world, resources, and other human beings around us.  We absorb so much information. We are given a name. Told we are a race, and sex, and in many cases a religion, a long with so much more. We learn letters, numbers, words, definitions, labels, safety, and everything else from those around us. We learn how to communicate our needs but also how to survive when those needs are not met or even acknowledged.

Inside of all of us lives this child. A child that gets curious, asks questions, gets excited, and even scared at times. A child learning more and more about this divine experience called life all around us on planet Earth. One of my favorite quotes is “All I know is that I know nothing”. This is such a deep statement to me because at the end of the day, we all really only know a sliver of what really is happening here on Earth and everywhere else in existence.

Everyday more knowledge is uncovered and our view on life continues to adjust.  Change is the one thing that remains constant in life. Our bodies grow. Our experiences shift with age and we continue to move through human existence as best we can. Give yourself grace. None of this is easy.

 A problem arises when we stop being curious and asking questions. When we stop feeling, and hearing our inner child. This typically happens, because let’s face it most times all of us were told to grow up. To be mature, to make a plan for life, and all of us have experienced some type of trauma as a child of Earth. All these things we were taught were passed down out of survival. We have survived time and time again. I personally say no more. The moment has come for us to live. To turn to that inner child and say you’re safe and free to experience this playground of Earth.

Our inner child is magic. Our inner child is free. Our inner child is safe. I have had the privilege of being apart of different children’s lives after I became an adult and at times it took me awhile to see how much of a gift it was. We have children and want to keep them safe. To help them survive but I ask, what about thrive? To live? To be love and be the magic that they are meant to be?

Rebuilding a relationship with my inner child has been the most delicate, divine, powerful thing I have ever done for myself. I ask you reader. Do you speak to the child in you? Do you let her or him out to play? When you’re triggered do you see how it stems to this child who was scared or uncertain?

My inner child sings like the magical Mermaid every time I look to the stars and watch the moon move through its phases. My inner child is in awe of Earth and nature and how it changes. My inner child giggles when I spill or break something now. If you have children around you I urge you to let them be your teachers as much as you are theirs.

 I challenge you to sit in silence and breathe life back into your inner child. It will be so worth it. Thank you for stopping by.

Holding Space. What do you think of when you read this? This post will be about this topic and hopefully introduce or remind you of this important topic in life.

Our physical body takes up actual space, but did you know you have an energetic body, and that also takes up space? We are a make up of frequency and we all have auras and energies/vibrations that we house in these physical bodies.

Out in the world the last couple years there was a big emphasis put on physical space with social distancing. This distance, we were told to put between ourself and others, was made out to be a good thing for us. To keep us healthy and safe. Yes to some extent physical space is clearly a given, we all like our personal space, but it can also be the opposite for us if we completely deprive ourselves of interacting with each other, physically and socially.

Our energy bodies and auras all interact with one another’s and ultimately we all need one another to thrive. We need physical contact such as kisses, hugs, cuddles, hand holding etc. Think of how skin to skin is used for infants. There is so much that goes with that and I could do a whole post on it but right now I will stick to this post. We also need social interactions. We all need each other. We are all here walking each other home.

The very unique physical and vibrational aspect of our human existence helps us to understand and feel whomever we are engaging on a much deeper level then just words and visual interpretation. Not everything is as it seems, these are very wise words. It is very important to learn what these words mean and also to tune into your own energy field. Pay attention to when it is drained and needs a recharge or reboot. It’s very important in being able to hold a safe space for someone to be vulnerable to be themselves.

Have you ever needed to talk to someone bad? You get ahold of a family member or friend or spouse and you dump it all on them? We have all done this. It always feels nice to get things out but this can be very invasive to a person’s energy, even though most times it is not malicious.

Something very important to understand is the space we can hold for ourselves and for others. When you show up for a friend, family member, co worker, or even stranger you are holding an energetic space for them to feel seen and heard, and to feel safe doing it. This is such a beautiful gift to give someone and unfortunately something that many are unable to do fully because of social wiring. Social wiring has mixed in feelings of guilt and shame making us feel obligated to be there for people at times even when you really don’t have the band width to do so.

In order to hold space for someone you have to first make sure the space your energy is comprised of and holds is charged and open for this interaction. If not you can end up feeling drained or resentful after speaking to some people, or doing certain activities.

One technique I feel is very beneficial is asking whomever it may be if they have the space to engage your energy and what you are about to share with them. Whether it be conversation or even an activity or outing you would like them to come along on.

  As much as we want to always be there for the people we care about it is not always healthy to do so if you are not maintaining a healthy balance of your energy. Maintaining it can look many different ways. There are breathing exercises, meditation, hobbies, self care, like baths, hikes, alone time, etc. anything that feeds your soul/spirit and helps your energy feel alive and expand.

I find the breath is the easiest way to align with yourself. We don’t pay attention to our breathing. It’s automatic just like our blood pumping through our body and all our internal systems working.  Take the time to connect with your breath. Feel it as it exits and enters the lungs, this can ground you. It is very helpful when the mind begins to runaway with the trains of thought.
Finding ways to recharge can help you be better for yourself and for others when they need you.

It is easy to get lost in auto pilot in our society.  Learning how to recognize and see your energy is crucial. It will help you to understand that people may or may not have the space to “be there for you” at times, and this does not make it personal. Holding space for someone can help them heal and also can be healing to you.

Once you’re able to hold space, working on listening is next, and not listening to respond, just listening. So many people don’t listen. They are listening to respond with what they want to say next. Or there is distracted listening, where a person finds their selves reviewing their day or certain moments in their head while they are supposed to present. This is very crucial to understand and to work at when really holding space for someone. It is not about you in those moments.  Try to take the time to just listen.

I personally work really hard at just listening. While out in the work force I worked with much older people then myself and I noticed many people would quickly write them off because they took longer to talk. People were so ready to say what they wanted to say or end the convo and they weren’t hearing what these people had to say. I made it one of my goals to listen and it helped me to not respond immediately or try and guess what they were trying to get out. The pauses were uncomfortable at first but then became more and more natural. Most people are not looking for you to solve their problems they just want them to be heard. Wire yourself to ask if an opinion or solution is wanted from you. Otherwise just hold the space for them to feel safe to release and speak their truth.

It’s so easy to see all the bad things around us. It really takes time to see the beauty everywhere and to hold the space for someone else to be able to see it with you.

I hope this post opened you up to tuning into your own energy and also to understanding what it means to hold space. I hope that you will reflect more on it in your every day life. I challenge you to become more present in life and to recognize when you can and cannot hold space for another and to honor that.  Thank you yet again for taking the time to read my thoughts. I love and appreciate you all.

Hello friends,

It has been quite some time since I last posted here and decided today would be a good day to do so again.

I’ve been deep in evolving my human and spiritual aspects and opening up my perspective. What I mean by this is that we are all human but we are also spiritual beings. Our spiritual side is the divine flame within all of us. Always connected to the source of all there is, was, and ever will be, connecting us all. Our human side is the unique make up of our specific energy that is bombarded with the ways of the world and society. It is the side of us that creates a personality or identity, and is constantly searching and striving to be better in our dualistic environment. Both sides are always learning and evolving.

In gaining a better understanding of both our human and spiritual side I have found that love is at the heart of it all for me. Love looks different for all of us, and yet at the core of all these different expressions of love the same powerful energy pulsates. There is a famous scripture listed below that describes love. It definitely is a beautiful message but I’ve been learning that there is much more to love than just this light side.

Corinthians 13:4–8a (ESV) Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.

We are creation. We literally were grown inside of a body and infused with different electrical currents and vibrations/frequencies/dna coding and divine love. The same creator energy was used for nature, animals, plants, earth, the sky, the stars, the sun, the moon etc. It is all so fascinating and we as humans are not separate from nature.

During my adventures of reconnecting with nature I had a deep rememberance that we are all love. I invite you to get outside and into nature. It is the best medicine of all. As I stood outside and watched the birds fly around and the flowers bloom from the ground I could feel the love that it all is, that we all are. We are all the embodiment of love but have been wired to look outside of ourselves for that love. Wired to think we are not good enough, that we are small, that we have to work hard and follow the social precedents set. Television is called programming for a reason and we have been programmed to think we are superior to nature not apart of it. Programmed to believe life is about competing and achieving milestones such as a house, car, marriage, kids, etc. The constant race for these things pull us further from nature, from our remembrance of the idea that we are here NOW, living and breathing and that has ALWAYS been enough. Don’t get me wrong these worldly things are great accomplishments but it’s important to remember there is more.

The Sun and the Moon in the sky don’t sit around wondering if we love them, if we need them, they just exist. The same can be said for animals and nature. It all exists. It is fully functioning. Cycling, changing. Coming and going. We as humans developed a sense of awareness and it changed everything. This awareness I believe is a gift and a curse simultaneously.

A gift because we can feel fully and process all that is happening around us, and use our mind tool to better shape the experience. A curse because ultimately we are just apart of an infinite process. Cycling in and out of nature and existence, in our universe and beyond, and ultimately we have no control. Just the perception of control through this gift of awareness.

The biggest battle of my life has been self love. Silly right, but I guarantee you this is the case for so many. If we can truly come to love and appreciate ourselves for what we are. All unique combinations of creation, expressing our divine energy. We can really open up our hearts to the world and everyone and everything around us good and bad and truly live.

We can begin to realize control runs rampant in the illusion of love outside ourselves and that if you surrender to what is and what is directly in front of you in life it is all beautiful. Even the not so fun stuff. That’s the stuff that makes us see ourselves more. To value ourselves more. As I opened the door and slowly removed the barriers I had put up to my heart I realized I had subjected myself to situations and treatment that would never have occured had I had eyes to see, ears to hear, and remained open to the magic that we are.

Love is messy, it’s also consistent, it doesn’t just disappear. It’s always there if you opened your heart to yourself in the first place. To stop loving means you never loved yourself enough, you just played the game with the ego who is our ruler at times, when it should really be our servant.

Love is deep. It’s the baseline of all that is, was, and ever will be so it doesn’t just fade. It is everlasting. Love is accepting. Love recognizes at the core we are all the same. We are all energy. We are all creation. Love strives to understand perspective. Love is forgiveness and inclusion. Love is accepting of differences and flaws and unites the opposites. Love is pain and grief. Love is surrender. Love is the grumpy, sad, and angry moments. Love is everything. Love is you, love is me, love is all. 

These are clearly my thoughts and ramblings on things and really just here to get you to thinking about your own expressions of love and experiences with life. I know one would argue that the darker things in life are not love but I would argue they are here just like the lighter things in life and have a purpose just like everything else does. If we can open our hearts to the idea that we are a mixture of light and dark you can truly begin to love ALL of you and the that’s when the illusion truly begins to change.

Love yourself, love each other, love all of creation. Give yourself grace and practice forgiveness in your life. Forgiveness of yourself and of others. This helps tear down the barriers to the heart and opens you up.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my thoughts and for taking the time to explore and support the Magical Mermaid and the Moon. I love you all.

Transformation

What does this mean to you? Simply put transformation is to make a thorough/drastic change in something such as form, appearance, or character. From the moment we are born we are transforming we are changing into whatever we are being shaped into by our surrounding environment. We develop habits and traits and morals amongst many other aspects of our human experience and these things become your identity. What happens though, when you come to a point that you do not identify anymore with what you’ve been shaped into? Either you’re just fed up with how you feel, identity is removed from you (example women who identify with being a mother and or wife then the children/spouse leave and she feels useless) or you just personally can’t take where you’re at in life anymore.

Are you stuck? A victim mindset would say yes I’m stuck. I will never be good enough. I can’t do this. This is hard. I’m scared. I’ll fail. A victim mindset will always keep you in the victim realm. It’s saying no to this mindset and stepping into the creator/ powerful mindset that helps transform your life. It’s tuning into the idea that since the moment you were born you and only you have made it up to this point. Don’t get me wrong of course there have been those who helped you along the way to get to this moment but in reality the only person who has been there 100percent of the choices in your life is YOU. Realizing your strength/power exists is the start of transformation from vicitm to creator.

There are a couple mental health issues such as depression and anxiety that could be solved in my opinion by introducing a chosen drastic change, to a person’s life structure. I have literally dealt with depression coping in so many different ways. Meds, numbing, running from it, but it never goes away doing these things. I was depressed because I was living a lie. Someone elses dream someone elses opinion, reaction, belief etc. Not my own and my spirit cried out (the depression). It was not until I dove into aspects of myself that made me uncomfortable and did things I had never done before that I started to feel good again. I started saying no to people, places and things that didn’t feel good even if it was something or someone I loved. It was listening to my body and my health and not what everyone else thinks. It was not caring if “they” liked me anymore. I didn’t even like me, why would they?!

Transformation in the human realm is vulnerability. It is trusting in your spirit to know what it needs to live it’s best life and not doubting it. Transformation is crucial in the evolution of the human spirit. We have to strive to constantly transform into better parts of ourselves to thrive as a species. So I ask you this. Are you ready to transform into your best self? Listen to your spirit when it speaks to you. The more you ignore it the heavier things feel. I challenge you to face yourself like the mermaid princess and the moon do in this magical tale. You will not regret it!!

Vulnerability. What does this mean to you? It is typically defined as the susceptibility to physical or emotional injury or attack. It is also known to mean to have one’s guard down, open to censure or criticism; assailable.

Do you allow yourself to be vulnerable? I only very recently in life have allowed myself to be vulnerable, to be exposed, through the journey of self and the journey of reconnecting to the love of self and others. When we enter the world we are vulnerable. We are at the mercy of our caregivers. Then we begin to learn the world and the survival responses to all the new stimuli around us. This changes our vulnerability. We discover that we can control this aspect of life and we think it keeps us safe. But does it?

Vulnerability is openess. Surrender. I have had a massive amount of pain in my life, both physical and emotional. Although they are two types of pain they mirror one another in response/effect and impact. I’ve practiced techniques and have developed tools to help me understand my pain. I soon came to realize through surrendering in deep self reflection that alot of it was self inflicted. I was choosing different cycles and I was repeating them over and over with different people, scenarios/situations and yet it was always the same outcome, emotional pain.

I did the same with my body. I played a sport i loved and I didn’t care if it tore my body apart. I was tough right? Tough for who? I could have chose to be tough for myself and listen to my body and possibly wouldn’t have had six surgeries. I also had to listen in regards to diet. I had alot of pancreatic pain. Stomach issues. Had the medical world all over it but no one could tell me what was wrong for years! Finally I chose to take my life out of their hands and back into my hands. This was scary. Would I fail? I surrendered to the fact that I was sick and only I could figure out what my body needed and didn’t need. I did my own scientific research completely shifting my diet to a vegetarian diet at first and eventually onto a full plant based diet. I’m healthier than I’ve ever been and have no more doctor or hospital visits. All it took was me being vulnerable and trying a new path.

I can say openly that I had placed vulnerability and the idea of being transparent in a special double locked safe in my mind as a young child growing in a turbulent home. I had to survive inside and outside my home the first six years of my life. I became unable to listen to me in that time. I decided vulnerability was weak and that I would focus on listening to others and avoiding trouble. It was all perfect, no matter how it looked or felt, it led me to here. I’m happy I can share these words and outlooks on a platform and that if even just one person reads it and feels like they are not alone then I’ve succeeded.

If I had slowed down and surrendered at a much younger age would I be much further along in my evolution to reach my highest self/best self? I do not know this but what I do know is that every choice we make is perfect. Even when it’s the choice that takes us a little longer to get us where we are meant to go. That is the beauty of this experience called life on Earth.

Step into your power. Step into vulnerability, and surrender to life. Surrender to your everyday feelings or lack there of. You can truly create a life you absolutely love but not without vulnerability. Creation is vulnerability. There is vulnerability in everything and we’ve lost sight of how brave we all are. The Magical Mermaid and the Moon came from my being, from my conscious mind. I surrender to vulnerability and hope you all enjoy every bit of the magic it is! ❤

Anger. This is something we all have within our scope of emotion. Anger is tricky because too much of it can bleed poison into our life and too little of it can scream passive and unpassionate to the world. What does anger do for you? Does it motivate you? Does it hold you back ? Do you think we need anger ?

Anger is something that I had wired into me young watching my very angry biological father react to life. After college I worked many years of social work and have many years of knowledge on human behavior especially beginning in childhood, but it has taken me being a parent myself to really connect all of that knowledge and understand that children are mirroring us.

I watched anger as a child so I mirrored anger in my life. It wasn’t directed at any particular person per say but my natural response to any kind of surprising stimuli like someone cutting me off in traffic, or stubbing my toe, or even just spilling something etc., became an auto angry response. Only after I started to do self work and dig within myself and throw out all the things I had learned and absorbed from infanthood to adulthood that did not serve the spirit that is housed inside of me did this anger auto response fade.

I practice self work/love everyday. The more self work I do the lighter I feel in life and I also do not auto respond in anger like before. It’s still there, we have this emotion for a reason. It just does not sit at the forefront of my reactions to life anymore. At times anger fuels my motivations but only controlled anger. An example of controlled anger is someone saying you can’t do something and you taking the anger from that to focus in on proving them wrong. All the while not letting the anger pour over into your morals or how you treat these critics because remember how you treat people says everything about you and nothing about them and vice versa.

I challenge you to face your anger. Where is it stemming from? I challenge you to transform your anger into something beautiful for your life just like The Magical Mermaid and the Moon do in this unique fairytale.

Soulmate. What does this mean to you? There are different ideas of a true soul connection that are floating around our society. I’ve come across many of these ideas in my pursuit of knowledge such as the idea that a soul mate is your other half, a person who just gets you, who has the tools to feed your spirit through a lifetime and in society it’s advertised as a romantic connection. Then there is the life partner. I believe this is the area most people find themselves in within our society for a multitude of reasons including but not limited to loneliness, societal and family pressure to have a family, ego, low self esteem/worth and much more. The life partner can be wonderful and support you through life but they do not have the tools to fully feed your spirit so there is always a disconnect and when you experience your lows together its extremely low. Since you both don’t truly connect at the spirit each conflict piles onto another until there is the moment where you’re done. You give up and cheat, split, or say it’s too late and live a miserable life together regretting many things. With a soulmate you don’t feel the disconnect there is an innate understanding of one another, a deep rooted oneness. With a life partner they cannot reach this mystical oneness together because they do not feed each other’s spirit in that way.

Now just as everything else in this blog is, all of these thoughts are my opinions and my views. I need no one to agree or disagree. My job is to get your mind moving. To make you reflect. I believe we have a multitude of soulmates. Not just one. I believe a mom and daughter can be soulmates, or a dad and his son, or dad and daughter, or daughter and grandpa, or best friends, or a teacher and a student, along with many other pairs. It is not just romantic. The romantic aspect in my opinion was pushed into our media and television to have us distracted and looking in all the wrong places for the tools we need for our spirit to grow and us fully be the beautiful, magical, powerful beings we were meant to be.

We are meant to cross paths with the people we cross paths with but we have become too distracted to slow down and feel and reflect on what life’s energy is presenting us. So many of us are in or have been in something that feels not good at all. Why do we do this to ourselves. Is the feeling familiar and we stick to what’s familiar? I challenge you to stop, breathe, and reflect on the relationships you have created in life and also dismissed in life. Which one or ones fed your spirit? Have you even felt fed yet? Take the time to connect and not based on the way societies main stream tells you to connect. Once you start doing this your real soulmates will present themselves ready to feed your spirit. You just have to be open. Good luck. No matter what you choose. Choose with authority and precision. It’s your life. Live it.

Wisdom is something we are all familiar with in one way or another. Or is it knowledge we are all familiar with and wisdom only something certain individuals attain? To better answer this question it is good to have some idea of what both things mean. Generally wisdom is defined as the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgement. These are not specific definitions of knowledge or wisdom just a generalization of the common agreed upon definitions of both words. Knowledge is generally defined as a mere knowing, learning, or understanding of facts in a certain situation. Wisdom would be the actual action/ability to apply knowledge to any given situations.

Life is a melting pot of knowledge from the moment we are born and this is not just us it is also the same for any living, breathing, conscious species. For us as human beings as soon as we take our first breath everything after that is knowledge. When we are born it is assumed we know nothing. The quote from Socrates “True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing” is a favorite quote. What did he mean by this? The moment we are born we must take in all types of passed down knowledge the first years of our life to better understand the world and system that we are living in. Knowledge pours in through many avenues and it continues as we grow in age and emotional maturity. Individual traumas of all kinds are experienced at different times in life for everyone and knowledge of the world becomes viewed through a veil if traumas remain stuck in our memory. These traumas do not have to be dramatic like society has sensitized us to be like, with all of the desensitizing they do in the media and television/movies. Traumas can be simple things that jolted the nervous system when we were developing that were left unexplained and buried. This could be a parent yelling at us constantly, a teacher embarrassing us in front of the class, not knowing where a next meal is coming from, loud noises and violence, and so much more.

It is argued by many that pain is needed in order for us to truly open our mind, heart, and soul to the self knowledge the pain brought to the surface. The wisdom would be in not repeating the same thing over and over again. We have all been there. Stuck in a loop somehow with different aspects of our life. Feeling the same feelings we have felt in the past before. It just looks a little different each time around. So we distract ourselves. We move onto the next relationship, or job, or car, or friendship, or animal or gym, or hobby, or habit, or whatever it may be to keep us from taking a painful moment to sit with our wounds. Some of them open still, others almost scarring over but still running deep.

Sitting with the pain and darkness and embracing it as terrifying as it may seem, is the only way to move into the realm of wisdom in dense circumstances. In doing so and finally looking at the root cause, (a choice), the actualized knowledge of this choice to choose your life and that you are in control of your destiny can set in. It will look different every time but it will always feel the same if responsibility is not taken for our lives. Wisdom comes when we take responsibility for our choices. Wisdom comes when we understand that where we are at this exact moment is a result of tons and tons of choices we’ve made to get here, along with many things that are also out of our control. There is a balance to be had in life and it is up to us to find this balance that is individually different for each of us and yet symbolically the same for all of us.

Words left unsaid. This is such a norm in our society. Numerous times in my life I’ve heard if only i had said something, maybe things would be different. Or if only I had said something, now it’s too late. These are only a couple examples. I am sure you have heard these as well. Why do we wait until it’s too late to speak the words in our heart, to translate our perception and our feelings about someone or about something? Does this stem from a lack of love for self? A lack of bravery? Does fear hold us back?

So much is shifting in the world and life is constantly moving. Really what is there to lose by being transparent and expressing yourself? At least this way you are true to yourself and can live without regret. We live in such a delicate ecosystem and life is truly a gift. Life is not promised tomorrow. Any one of us can go at any moment with no warning and we lose sight of this getting caught up in the survival cycle of life which is family, job, bills, repeat. Or friends, school, bills, repeat. There are numerous cycles we end up in and life becomes underappreciated and lived on auto pilot.

When you decide to be brave and speak those words so many leave unsaid you take back power over your life. You cannot control how the other person responds to your transparency. It may not be how you want, or it could be very surprising. Either way you took a risk in life and isn’t that what it’s about! Living! Being free spirited and feeling your heart race a million miles a minute because you are stepping outside your comfort zone. All this takes is practice. Practice being straight forward. Practice being forth coming about your feelings. Practice being true to your self. The more you practice the easier it becomes. When you speak up you honor your feelings and are taking a risk in life.

Know that those who are meant to be in our life will find a way there and that’s it’s okay if they are not there yet. Know that ultimately the MOST important person in your world is YOU. Just YOU. The world is a canvas and you are the artist. Turn off the television and don’t compare your life to the illusions presented around us about how your life should look. Only you know how it should look and feel. Trust yourself. Be brave.

I challenge you to speak up before you don’t have a chance anymore, because life is not promised for any of us tomorrow!

Have you ever received a request or command you did not agree with? Have you ever witnessed an injustice? Would you try and help if you could? There are many things going on in our world today that are making us take a look a humanity. Are we lost?

It’s important that we as a species get back to the fact that despite all the dividing factors which include but are not limited to race, class, and religion, that we are all created the same. We are shaped and formed through an egg and a sperm coming together to create life. There is no other way to look at it. This is the truth. We all need oxygen to breathe. We all bleed and we all have organs functioning in our bodies to keep us alive.

The external system we are in(society) created an illusion surrounding us, and thus division was birthed. Why is it so easy for some people to forget everyone is just out here trying to make it on a planet that we still have not fully explored and do not know everything about.

Life is about living your authentic truth. Which means at times you are not going to agree with people, places, and things that do not feel right. We have gotten so far away from listening to our feelings and we just try and survive and we need to stop this. We need to stop and listen to ourselves. Does it feel good to talk about people you know nothing about ? Does it feel good to tear people down? What does judging and condeming others really do for you? I personally have witnessed injustice. I personally have spoke up and intervened when I could. I would hope someone would do the same for me. Would you?
