If keeping the peace with others is keeping your authentic voice on the back burner, then it is time for you to be at peace with starting a riot by advocating for you. Discipline is a strong force that inspires within us a visceral rejection of what pushes us closer to being disingenuous, and there will be times where in order to have an accurate understanding of truth, we will need to discipline ourselves with the intentional action of gaining perspective outside of what we are familiar with.
To keep the peace too often means denying your experience and abandoning your core values, the integrity of truth and your authentic voice is harmed by a fabricated illusion of peace. Peace that is maintained with you sacrificing your authenticity is remaining a perpetual victim to self-sabotage with a mentality of blame-shifting to justify it. The longer you are immersed in it, the more difficult it is to get out. It is not impossible, but it is difficult, and the longer it goes on the less recognizable you are to yourself.
You do not need to put your energy towards those who run from the accountability of themselves while screaming at you for the ways you choose to live. You do not need anyone other than you to understand how precious your finite time is. You are not responsible for the ways in which a person is triggered by your intentional decisions that are a testament to your personal values and greater purpose. If truth strikes a chord, it is our own responsibility to go within ourselves and ask why, it is not our responsibility to change the truth to avoid a tantrum.
The land is going to split, assuredly, so if the truth fractures a relationship as you know it, then it is time for you to create the fault line and make the choice of where you will stand. What is meant for you will be there after all is said and done.
We will be defensive towards what and who we truly love until we are willing to take the risk of stirring up some "chaos" which is really just the coming together of what is right in truth, a vanquishing of the illusion. It starts with our accountability of self. No one else's input is needed when remaining loyal to our integrity in every choice we make on the individual level.
We must peel back the layers of time, experience, our past, and our conditioned beliefs which may be an inaccurate representation of reality as we know it in order to get to the crux of us, to get us out of the cycle of "keeping the peace" in a martyrdom fashion.
There is no divination in remaining connected to those who do not value you. It is one thing to be underestimated, and it is a devastating thing when you underestimate yourself. Let those who make a mockery out of your presence feel your absence. In the end you will be the one who faces the consequences of the impact your existence made, you are in charge of the polarity of them.
By our intentional shift in perspective and utilization of our authentic voice, we have a better understanding on who to invest our currency into and whether or not it will be honored as wealth by the receiver and the giver, respectively.
