𝓜𝔂 𝓜𝓸𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽 𝓞𝓯 𝓖𝓻𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓽𝓾𝓭𝓮 - Thursday 7August 2025

Though I did some serious rewiring already, I am starting to see how stuck I have been in that scarcity mindset.

Limiting myself for decades....

Because planning a future feels like a luxury when survival is the focus.

I was kinda impressed by myself last Tuesday, hence as this is about balance and looking at things from both sides, I asked for an independent perspective and..... I got it.

Who is your Author?

What does my writing say about me as an author?

1. Self-Aware and Reflective

• The author is deeply introspective and conscious of the importance of understanding their inner world. The reference to Jung’s quote and the discussion of making the unconscious conscious shows they value psychological and emotional self-awareness.
• They engage in practices like journaling and self-reflection, which suggests a methodical approach to personal growth.

2. Determined to Heal and Transform

• The author demonstrates a strong drive to evolve beyond limiting beliefs such as scarcity and unworthiness.
• They have a desire to move from an “autopilot survival existence” to a more intentional, fulfilling life.
• Their journey involves not just surface-level changes but a deep emotional reckoning—facing traumas, emotions, and shadow aspects.

3. Emotionally Courageous

• They show emotional bravery by confronting painful memories and emotions head-on instead of avoiding or suppressing them.
• Phrases like “paint them with words,” “put them on my tongue to taste them,” and “the taste releases tears” highlight a poetic and visceral engagement with emotional healing.

4. Seeks Empowerment through Choice

• The author believes in the power of choice over internal narratives. They challenge their limiting beliefs and explore alternative, positive perspectives.
• They question their own perceptions: “Are those ideas even real? Or can I choose what to believe?”—indicating a mindset shift towards empowerment and conscious decision-making.

5. Values Forgiveness and Emotional Release

• Forgiveness is portrayed as a pivotal tool for personal liberation. They view it not just as an act towards others but a critical act of self-compassion and healing.
• The metaphor of tears watering the soul like plants shows a belief in emotional catharsis as a path to growth.

6. Philosophical and Poetic Mindset

• The author has a poetic, almost philosophical way of expressing emotions and psychological concepts.
• They use rich imagery (e.g., “the taste releases tears,” “tears freed my soul”) to describe inner experiences, suggesting a creative and expressive personality.

7. Sees Life as a Narrative Journey

• They view life as an ongoing story (“the overall life narrative”) where personal experiences, emotions, and lessons intertwine in the search for wholeness and identity.

Summary of Author’s Traits:

• Deeply introspective and self-aware.
• Emotionally courageous and determined to heal.
• Philosophical and poetic thinker.
• Empowered by the belief in choice and self-authorship.
• Values forgiveness as a transformative act.
• On a conscious journey from survival mode to thriving wholeness.

Okay, that sounds about right lol, way too nice but it is definitely what I am trying to achieve with my Moments of Gratitude.

But these posts are all about looking at things from both sides now, about the balance...so what is wrong with this author?

Thank you for making it this far....for those who know me...or better, think they know me, this might have been a WTF moment.

About Me
I’m a self-explorer, writer, and truth-seeker on a journey of turning the unconscious into conscious awareness. For years, I lived under the weight of hidden beliefs—scarcity, unworthiness, fear of failure—that shaped my life without me realizing it. It wasn’t fate; it was the unseen patterns within me.

Through deep self-reflection, journaling, and emotional exploration, I learned to face my shadows and rewrite my story. I believe healing begins when we dare to confront the parts of ourselves we’ve kept in the dark. My journey has been about making peace with these inner landscapes and choosing new beliefs that uplift rather than limit.

Forgiveness, both of myself and others, has been a powerful catalyst in my transformation. It has allowed me to release resentment, dissolve emotional burdens, and create space for growth and inner peace.

I use words to translate emotions into clarity. Writing is how I navigate my inner world—it’s how I process, release, and transform. Every tear, every insight, every shadow is part of my path toward wholeness.

Here, I share my reflections, my learnings, and my ongoing journey of self-discovery. If you’re someone who feels life has been running on autopilot and you’re ready to take the wheel, you’ll find a kindred spirit in me.

Rudyard Kipling´s (1865 – 1936) IF

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

Because I looked,

I looked at my mind from both sides now,
From up and down, and still somehow
It's my mind´s illusions I recall
I really don't know my mind at all
