Life is a pathway.
Everyone walks their own pathway and you can stop and sniff around the path or you can run down the path. It’s all about choice. Some people want to just run the path. They don’t want to look at the flowers or the trees along the journey. They just want to run. They can’t live in the moment and that’s their right to do so, but I like to stop and investigate everything because there is so much more to learn that way than running down the path.
If you’re walking down the path sniffing the flowers and the trees and if something or someone is chasing you and you become fearful, you’re now moving down that pathway in a way that’s not your own choice. You’re missing what you want or need to see. In order to walk your own pathway and experience what you need, make sure you aren’t living in fear. You miss out on life living in fear.
If you want someone to join you on your path, then you choose that person to be there with you and it should be honoring for both of you. Sharing the path means both people should be respectful and honoring of each other because it’s a gift.
And finally, sometimes you have to stop and relieve yourself…

Isa I might be gay. Can you help me?
Sexual preference is one of choice of the individual. What you feel in this moment in time may not reflect what you will feel all of your life. Experimentation is sometimes good because that’s how we figure out what we like and what we don’t like. Not just in sexuality but in everything in our lives. How do we discover ourselves? We experiment, we try, we evaluate, we plan, we enjoy and we compare.
So my advice to you would be to not feel bad about your choice. Don’t be concerned about your sexuality, choices or interests. Don’t judge yourself so greatly that you prevent yourself from experiencing and don’t judge yourself so greatly that you bring yourself to fear. Allow yourself to be open and loving to yourself and embrace whatever comes in the moment of what you feel at the time that you need. That doesn’t make you a bad person when you’re not hurting anyone else. There’s no reason for you not to embrace it, not to try it, not to explore it. We are often all unsure of ourselves in things at different stages of our lives and this won’t be the first time that you experience this. It takes a courageous person to face the fear of judgment of another and walk the path they want to walk. But we only have a limited time in this life so we can’t be walking the path that is in conflict to what we desire just to please others. Then we’re not honoring our authentic self. My advice to you would be to honor what you believe to be is your authentic self.
Thank you for trusting in me and asking something so personal. I want to send you love and let you know that the beauty of your heart is what you should look at and not what your preferences are in life. Embrace you and love yourself. That’s the most important thing.
