What is self?
Is it how I see myself, or how I am seen?
Could it be the sum total of my thoughts, feelings, desires and fears?
It is an illusion?
I believe that intrinsic self is the truth you and I have inside of us.
It was placed there before we had words by a higher power.
You might call it Spirit or the Universe or God.
This intrinsic self is unconditional, natural, and pure.
In our surface-level society we don't spend much time with the intrinsic self.
Our truth is often buried beneath stories, identities, masks, and behavior.
I can be very honest and vulnerable without coming close to my intrinsic self.
These days I am learning to be more honest and more vulnerable than ever by seeking the truth beneath the truth of who I really am.
Letting go of story and mythology, I am finding my faith and my conviction.
I am finding out who I really am.
I am seeking my intrinsic self.
