Todays Word: Bare
START
I think the barest we ever are is that moment when we were
born. We entered this world with
nothing. Nothing on, nothing holding us back. Bare.
There are no pretenses, expectations, or disguises. At that moment we were exactly who we
are. We were exposed in every way
imaginable. We let our feelings be known
(usually rather loudly), we hold nothing back.
And from that moment on we spend our lives trying to cover up. We wear clothes (thank goodness), and we
begin to build walls of perception around us.
Rarely, if ever, do we ever let our voices cry out with exactly what is in
our heart. We try to cover our hearts,
our feelings, our imperfections. Yet at that moment of birth, that moment of
true “bare”ness, we were never loved more.
We did nothing to earn it, nothing to deserve it. Naked in body and heart, we were loved.
