No, you're not wrong.

You're not wrong for wanting a better life for yourself.

You're not wrong for believing that you are deserving of better.

You're not wrong for making those necessary changes in your life.

You're not wrong for changing the way you show up to life.

You're not wrong for distancing yourself from those things that harm you.

You're not wrong.

People who have a creative side and do not live it out are most disagreeable. They make a mountain out of a molehill, fuss about unnecessary things, are too passionately in love with somebody who is not worth so much attention, and so on.

There is a kind of floating charge of energy in them which is not attached to its right object and therefore tends to apply exaggerated dynamism to the wrong situation.

Marie-Louise von Franz, Shadow and Evil in Fairy Tales

There's something about accepting yourself, your body, your mind, your personality. Recognize it. And before that, identify it. And then sit with it. And then allow yourself to love it, to smile at it, to really be it without shame. That's where genuineness starts, then authenticity. That's where you can start to build every single thing that you've ever wanted for yourself. And then pure, real, vibrant confidence walks in without even being asked to.

In trying to express the nature of intellectual knowledge, Muslim scholars commonly cite mathematical understanding as an example, and they consider true mathematical insight as a halfway house on the road to intellectual vision. A real knowledge of mathematics does not derive from rote learning or rational argumentation, but rather from the discovery of the logic and clarity of mathematics in one’s own self-awareness. When one perceives the truth of a mathematical statement, one cannot deny it, because it is self-evident to the intelligence.

William Chittick, “The Recovery of Human Nature”, Transdisciplinarity in Science and Religion No. 4 (2008), pp. 281-93

Bluestreak cleaner wrasses (Labroides dimidiatus) are fundamental in coral ecosystems, as they remove parasites from fishes, keeping them healthy, and according to a recent study, they may be self-aware as these small fishes can recognize theyself in photos and mirror, an ability usually attributed to humans and large mammals. According to researchers, self-awareness may be more widespread among animals than previously thought.

Cleaner fish, likely recognize their own mirror image using a mental image of the self-face comparable to humans. Mirror-naïve fish frequently attacked photographs of both themselves and strangers. In contrast, after passing the mirror test, aggression against their own photograph and composite photographs of own face/stranger body declined, but aggression remained toward unfamiliar and composite photographs of stranger face/own body. These results suggest that cleaner fish with mirror self-recognition ability can recognize their own mirror image based on a mental image of their own face, rather than by comparing body movements in the mirror

Being requires accepting oneself, staying within oneself and not doing to prove oneself. It is a discipline that is accorded no applause from the outside world; it questions production for production’s sake. Politically and economically it has little value, but its simple message has wisdom. If I can accept myself as I am, and if I am in harmony with my surroundings, I have no need to produce, promote, or pollute to be happy. And being is not passive; it takes focused awareness.

Maureen Murdock, The Heroine's Journey: Woman's Quest for Wholeness

Connecting with our higher self commences with a genuine desire to do so. Just like any other relationship in life, our connection to ourselves requires intention-setting. We must define how we want this relationship to evolve and then invest purposeful effort into nurturing it, providing it with the necessary time and space to thrive. Without first nourishing our self-relationship, spiritual enlightenment remains elusive.

Quote

That is normal...To be afraid. Do not let anyone tell you any different. No one can ever say that what you feel is right or wrong, or pointless or unworthy of your time. That is a truth for you to decide. Ignorance is bliss, but there comes a time when you must open your eyes and face the truth—when you must be honest with yourself.

Kelseyleigh Reber, If I Resist
