being misunderstood feels like a gift these days because the time i spend explaining myself just for someone to still not get it has drastically reduced.
being misunderstood used to really hurt my feelings and upset me but then i remember that there are many people who will never understand me because i& #39;m still an individual having these experiences and my perspectives are mostly shaped from my many experiences & learned lessons.
yes, you may relate but that doesn& #39;t mean you understand, and that& #39;s okay. i don& #39;t need to be understood by many people if i give myself the gift of understanding. and the people that are allowed closest to me are such because they also do.
understanding me requires letting go of a lot of biases and judgements that you have regarding freedom and going against the accepted standards. i am my own person through and through and am always okay with resistance when it& #39;s purposeful.
a lot of misunderstanding comes from people trying to mirror my thinking. this is something i dislike on a deep level because i never need you to think like me to understand me. i need you to listen to me and take your time doing so.
people are conditioned to want immediate answers for their every question and that& #39;s never been my process because that is not learning. i would know.
that& #39;s knowing something but that doesn& #39;t mean you learned it and integrated it.
i could explain a lot of things but if you have no intention of actually having an experience and integrating the conceptual language that was shared, then ... well.

i always share my thoughts when they arrive to me because that& #39;s how i learn. i see my thoughts and insights as starting places for me to have an experience and understand *why* that thought came to me and get a more well rounded picture.
