2022: Year Of Self Discovery

2022 is the year of self discovery, clairvoyance and revelation. Do you feel the shift? What if you decide to be you?

2022 is the year of awakening! A year of divulgence, unobstructed vision & understanding – many things that flourished in the darkness are now being flung into the light for everyone to see.

This shift in conscienceless and global awareness doesn’t just apply to society’s current distain & distrust for government, politicians and celebrities.

This collective shift into the light includes exposing certain untruths about life, our society, our reality and ourselves.

We are truly experiencing an awakening and it’s up to you if you want to join the woke & enlightened or be left in the past mentally, spiritually and emotionally.

It’s time to break free of the old way of thinking – stop the people pleasing, stop following trends and stop trying to blend into society! Work on being the best version of You – PERIOD!

You’ll never be satisfied or fulfilled chasing status, clout or the approval of strangers – e.g. on Tiktok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, etc.

You’re always better off being your beautiful authentic self! Those who are comfortable simply being themselves radiate a certain peace, confidence and mental-freedom that is truly desired, yet rarely praised.

Year Of Understanding

2022 is also the year of divulgence, unobstructed vision & understanding. So, as we enter into spring – the season new beginnings, rebirth and awakening – take time to engage in some internal cleansing of the soul, spirit and mind.

Free yourself from the illusion of perfection, society standards and imposed trends. Deprogram yourself and exit the Matrix.

Here’s a little known secret…none of these imposed social standards actually matter. It’s all just social programming to keep the public confused, divided and insecure.

Most importantly to keep society mentally & emotionally controlled. Those of us who are self-confident, strong-minded and enlightened no longer fall victim to societies mental programing and social pressures.

Revelation

Being your proud authentic self is always the right choice. Choose to be the person you actually like being, instead of the person society wants you to be.

Once you have achieved this “peace”, confidence and mental-freedom will follow.

What if I decided to be me?
 What if I decided to be free?

What if I decided to be comfortable in my own skin, my own hair,
 my own heritage, 
my traditions,
 my pride?

What if I decided to let the whole world subside?

And walk away from the “code-switching”, “Black Tax”, & self-love oppression?

What if I decided to be the person I actually liked being? 
The person loved by God and my family.

What if I decided to be that person 365 days a year – 100 percent of the time?

Wouldn’t that be sublime?
 Instead of this subpar reality of mine?

What if I decided to stop suppressing my God given personality, while burying my bestowed gifts?

What if I decided to be my authentic self? Instead of the imposter who seeks acceptance and believes in the illusion of inclusion.

What if I decided to stop believing in their myths?
