The spiritual path can be lonely. But it’s better to be alone than hide who you really are, or dim your light, to it in or be accepted.

That’s a reminder to all who may feel lonely or isolated on the spiritual path.

We may feel lonely or isolated on the spiritual path. And we may BE lonely and isolated. I know I have been many times throughout my path.

I have left relationships behind on my spiritual path, and others have left me. And, of course, it was painful at the time in many cases.

But hiding parts of myself and knowing that the people around me would never accept me if I showed who I really am, was even more painful than being alone.

I was hiding so much of who I am in most of my relationships, because I had changed so much on my path and was still trying to be around the same people or people who were not open to or accepting of people like me (people like me = spiritual people with psychic abilities).

Even if I was very comfortable with myself and who I was becoming on my path, and with my insights and the abilities that were developing or being uncovered, I still felt as if something was wrong with me when I was in some people’s company, and at work.

I felt as if I didn’t fit in. And it was probably because I didn’t.

I could enjoy their company and enjoy being there at times. And I still like meeting people I have nothing in common with because I feel it enriches my life. But I can’t be close with people that I can’t be my whole self around.

Being around the few who love and accept me exactly as I am, even if they don’t always understand everything I do or say, makes my soul sing.

I didn’t always have people like that. Some came because I decided to show myself. And I dared to show more of myself because of them.

We change when we awaken and free ourselves from old conditioning and open up to new dimensions of reality-not just as individuals, but our perception of reality changes.

It’s easy to feel that we don’t belong anywhere anymore, not with our old friends or in society. Maybe not even with other spiritual people because we all experience our paths differently.

So we may be without close friends as we find ourselves and become more of who we are. But when we do, the right people can find us.

And one real friend is worth more than a thousand that don’t accept us.🙏
