Speaking your truth can scare most people.
They do not want raw , jagged, uncomfortable truth.
Hiding from their own truths, sitting in their safe zones, your truth reminds them of theirs.
The truth that they have tried so hard, to suppress , transmute , dull down or ignore. Desperately , they want you to conform…just be what you used to be, is their silent plea.
Like talking to a wild animal from the other side of the bars of the cage, petrified that it shall break free…wanting it to remain in captivity …so they can be safe.
I know how they feel.
I was them once.
