Carl Jung distinguished between loneliness and solitude,
viewing them differently.

He saw loneliness as feeling unable to communicate what feels important to you or holding views that don’t feel acceptable,
rather than the absence of people.

This form of loneliness can arise from a sense of being different
or having a unique perspective that isolates.

On the other hand, he viewed solitude as necessary and valuable to personal growth and self-discovery. He believed that being alone "highest and most decisive experience" one can have.

It is in this state of solitude that we can confront the parts of the self we often repress or deny that leave us feeling lonely.

The Philosopher's Stone of Self-Acceptance: Alchemists spent lifetimes searching for the Philosopher's Stone - the legendary substance that could transform anything into gold
Plot twist: The real Philosopher's Stone isn't something external, it's self-acceptance.

What if that part of you that you've been trying to fix, change, or hide is meant to be? Your sensitivity, your intensity, your 'too muchness' - these aren't flaws to erase or transmute away, they may be your greatest strengths. The raw materials of your magic.
When you stop trying to turn yourself into someone else's version of gold, you discover you were precious metal all along. Self-acceptance isn't settling, it's recognizing your inherent worth so you can build from a foundation of gold instead of constantly trying to prove you're valuable.

What would change if you truly believed you were already enough?

Vultures are so cool, glad they have their own international day. I hope to spot a king vulture one day soon.

The very misunderstood birds are a critical part of the ecosystem.

Loving this! Does not sound easy, yet it is simple...

Criticism can feel harmless — just a passing remark. But energetically, it’s part of a deeper drama: an attempt to lift ourselves by putting someone else down. When this happens, it doesn’t just sting the other person — it drains them, while leaving us reliant on others’ energy instead of generating our own.

But what if, instead of giving in to that reflex, we paused? Each time we resist the urge to judge or diminish, we break the cycle of energy theft. We open the possibility of connection, clarity, and uplift rather than control.

That choice may seem small, yet it carries real weight. Each inner victory helps shift the collective field we all share. When we withhold needless criticism, we create space for respect and authentic growth—not only for those around us, but for humanity as a whole. ✨💛

I still struggle sometimes with adjusting myself for others. Sometimes it shows compassion or empathy, but the truth is I need not change myself to make others comfortable or to bend to their perceptions.

Sometimes that path feels strange, even frightening but that's our nervous system protecting us from something that doesn't need protection. Our truth lies there in what may feel foreign, but is actually genuine and familiar. Go there with compassion to find peace.
