Openness: not hiding who you are

[Ankh]

is there any need to hide who you are? your limitations, your looks, your foibles? these were all pre-incarnational choices, chosen by the self (higher self) in full awareness of what those limitations of body, mind, and abilities would entail. It chose the body, it chose the looks, it chose the personality shell. This is 'you' in this lifetime. What is there to be ashamed of, to hide from others?

indeed; let us lay our cards on the table and say; yes, this is who I am, and you may dislike or reject it, but I hide nothing from you. Is there any reason to dissociate from the self any longer?

Great thoughts, plenum!

I also thought of this quote:

The best way of service to others is the constant attempt to seek to share the love of the Creator as it is known to the inner self. This involves self knowledge and the ability to open the self to the other-self without hesitation. This involves, shall we say, radiating that which is the essence or the heart of the mind/body/spirit complex.

The ability to open the self to the other-self without hesitation... Just think about it!

Indeed it requires a great self knowledge.
