Crazy 🤪? Personal Growth’s reality

The journey of wisdom and personal growth often sets individuals apart, making them appear unconventional or even “crazy” to those who are not on a similar path. This divergence occurs because wisdom and growth involve deep introspection, questioning societal norms, and embracing a broader perspective of life. Those who embark on this journey learn to see beyond the surface, understanding the complexities and subtleties that govern human existence. They develop a heightened awareness of the interconnectedness of all things, recognize the value of mindfulness, and prioritize emotional and spiritual well-being over material success. As they shed old beliefs and adopt new paradigms, their behaviors and thoughts may start to seem outlandish to those who remain entrenched in conventional thinking. The growth journey often includes embracing vulnerability, practicing radical acceptance, and fostering a profound sense of empathy and compassion, which can be perplexing to those who operate on autopilot, adhering to societal expectations without question. Moreover, the pursuit of wisdom often leads to a rejection of fear-based living, and an embrace of authenticity and self-expression. This bold divergence from the norm can be unsettling to others, as it challenges their comfort zones and highlights their own stagnation. The individual’s newfound clarity and purposeful living can inadvertently shine a light on the complacency and unexamined lives of those around them, causing discomfort and defensive reactions. As a result, those who are not growing may dismiss the wisdom seeker as eccentric or unrealistic, clinging to their familiar worldview. This disparity can lead to a sense of isolation for the one who is growing, as they find fewer people who resonate with their expanded perspective. However, it is important to understand that this perceived “craziness” is a natural byproduct of transformation. It signifies breaking free from societal conditioning and embracing a more enlightened state of being. The wisdom attained is not a detachment from reality, but rather a deeper immersion into the true essence of life. This path requires courage, resilience, and a willingness to stand apart, knowing that true growth often means walking alone for a time. Ultimately, those who persist in their growth journey often find a new community of like-minded individuals who understand and appreciate their unique perspective. In this space, their wisdom is not only validated but celebrated, reinforcing the importance of their transformative journey.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
