A Word from The Park
Five Refusals: Refusal 1 - I refuse to be a stranger to myself
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
๐พ There comes a moment when the soul grows tired of pretending.
Tired of carrying names that were never yours. ๐ชจ
Tired of wearing armor that was only meant for survival. ๐ก๏ธ
Tired of mistaking the mask for the mirror. ๐ช
Then, in the stillness... ๐ค
The God Hagar called El Roi whispers, "I have seen you all along." ๐๏ธโจ
The One who has searched you and known you...
The One who has never confused your wounds with your identity. โค๏ธ
โจ I refuse to be a stranger to myself. โจ
Look again. ๐
Stay in God's gaze until you recognize the person God has always recognized:
Beloved. ๐
