The Epiphany That Wants to be Born

I decided that the worst thing that can happen to me
  is NOT that I end up homeless or without food.

The worst thing thing that can happen is
  that I turn this life circumstance against me.

The self-questioning, self-loathing, self-deprecation...
  All of that names the worst that could happen.

I really am not what the external world reflects back to me.
  I really am what shines forth from inside of me.

The life circumstance is bearable.
  I can handle whatever comes at me.

I am resourceful, frugal, insightful, smart, well-balanced.
  I have much experience handling difficulties.

I have come through much in my life.
  I have a strength inside that always carries me.

What's not bearable is the stress load I've been carrying,
  the internalization of society's blame for the circumstances of my life.

Somehow, I must dispel this illusion from my mind,
  for by assimilating it, I turn against my self and the blessing that I am.

There it is, the message Spirit wants me to learn.
  I can almost feel it, want to believe it, am reaching for it.
