Self presence
and
Self
expression aren't matters of strategy. Neither are they
matters of positive thinking or of knowing how to
debate well.
Self presence
and
Self
expression aren't matters of reasoning or of figuring it
out. Neither are they matters of turning over new
leaves, and they aren't matters of making (or keeping) new
years' resolutions either.
Self presence
and
Self
expression are matters of being free to choose. Yet when you're
mired in reactivation, the freedom to choose is often
only found in
the last place you
look.
When you get to choice in the matter of being
Self presenced,
when you get to choice in the matter of being
Self
expressed, when you get it's no more than your choice to be
Self presenced
and to be
Self
expressed (and no less than your choice either), when
you've not only chosen but you've also
committed
to
making that choice over and over and
over and over and over again
day after day after day for the rest of your life regardless of any
and all of the nights and days of reactivation and
inauthenticity
and their resulting sense of powerlessness, then and only then can
you consider yourself this day to truly be a
graduate
of that great open enrollment academy of equestrians worldwide who
ride the horse in the direction he's going.
