"Man is truly not one, but two."
Robert Louis Stevenson
There are two parts to me, the warrior and the sensitive. The warrior is filled with energy and goes on a hunt for engagement, learning, and bonding. The sensitive side is lofty, withdrawing and creative. When I can balance these two parts, life becomes quite remarkable. I have the strength to be vulnerable.
The days of needing to project a certain image are far gone and no longer am I willing to hide. Processing what was at my core, understanding triggers, and accepting my own true nature, has led me to a comfort in being me. Being assertive when needed, I feel that I can be protective and safe. Being laid back leaves me open to experience.
Processing that life happens and that I have choice as to how to react, adjusts the quality of my life. There is a sense of control as to how I will navigate in accordance with my needs. My deep sense of compassion accepts the lesser parts of me, and I end up feeling a love so incredibly deep that I know I can withstand the winds of time.
