I think I'm always in the process of wiggling free. That's because I know (or perhaps assume) I'm never 100% free and I always want to be more free.
Maybe that's true for most of us. We go through seasons when we try our best to rid our stories of what ails us or prevents us from doing and being what we were born to do and/or be.
I'm likely projecting some here. Because I don't know that most of us are on a "freedom" journey.
I think lots of us are trying our best to squirm our way toward being purer versions of ourselves, but that's not an easy journey. It's not a journey that feels good or one that looks as sexy as the gurus on Instagram often make it seem. It often feels scary, full of fear.
But for some of us, it's not that getting free scares us, it's that we've been running away from freedom for so long that we've lost the ability to know what free looks like.
And for others of us, we exist within circumstances that keep us from being free, there are people or places or situations in our stories that make being free difficult or impossible. And there's a few of us who simply don't know the first thing about how to get free.
I've been in all of those places at times in my life. I've learned a few things on this path. And maybe something I've experienced can help you on your pursuit to wiggle free.
Here are a few things that have helped me find my path and/or stay on my path toward being free.
