Inner Practice: To Junjun

Dear Little Junjun,

At this stage of your life, you are thinking that life is indeed a bed of roses, waking up everyday feeling blissful and happy. Everything is well and good and you are fully protected, just like how you are holding on to the little doll that you slept with for years and protecting her and giving her all your pure innocent love.

I am here to tell you that is how you are, stepping out into the world and embracing everyone with that unconditional love. Yet life has its way to grow and develop you as you go on your journey, many times through sharp turns and treacherous paths that can leave you tattered and torn, making you wonder how horrible life can be and how evil humans actually are.

Don’t be afraid.

For you are stronger than you thought, and every trial and tribulation always bring out the inner strength within you that you did not know is even there. Deaths, heartbreaks, betrayal, disappointments, discriminations, judgements, societal pressure are going to break you, but you always heal and glow much brighter than before after every soul shattering event. One day you are going to help many people on their journeys with your gifts, power and abilities uncovered from deep within you through the wounds and scars you have endured. And life will send you many good souls that feel you and lift you up.

I witnessed this and I am here with you.

Many stages in your life you think you have seen it all and been through it all. Oh Jun, life has its way to test you and your patience so hard that you would think you have been forgotten and abandoned and that happiness and joy are meant for everyone else but you. But I’m here to tell you that good things must wait. Do not be afraid and frustrated of delays because you have your own divine timing to fulfil on this journey of yours. I know it can be really lonely at times. Often the tears you have shed, the pain you have felt, the many internal struggles were just repressed and hidden so well by you as you put up a strong front. I know you are doing it this to protect yourself and your heart.



I witnessed this and I am here with you.



Jun, how people treat you is a reflection of themselves, yes you aren’t perfect either but you don’t need to “prove yourself” so much to an extent that you just lose yourself. You have such kindness to the core that you overextend and give so much of yourself that at the end of the day only left you empty without even you being aware.



I witnessed this and I am here with you.



Jun I love you, and I know you never heard that from anyone else, not even yourself. The parts of you that the uninspired and mediocre put shame upon: the you who gets angry with anything against valuing qualities that make a good human because you don’t hide your emotions to look good to others; the you who is anxious because you are responsible and do your best to make things work; the you who hates lateness because you know your time and energy is priceless and invaluable; the you who is quiet because you would rather connect to your heart than to connect with transactional surface comes-and-goes; the you who overthinks because you show up in this world as a mortal who cares rather than a self-proclaimed enlightened fake who only pays lip service to detachment. I love everything about you, including all these cute little quirks.



I witnessed all these and I am here with you.



You don’t need to do big things to be valued, you are already valuable. You don’t need to force yourself to be just like anyone else to connect with them and conform to artificial standards. You don’t need to deny, suppress, reject, disown the parts of yourself that people frown upon to lower your calibre to such superficiality. It’s ok to be alone than to appear popular and sociable to be recognized as normal. And maybe you can’t “fit in” anywhere because you were meant to stand out. Stop dimming your light to make everyone else more comfortable. Some people were meant to shine and once you let go of that fear of being “too much” or taking up “too much” space, I promise you Jun, life starts to open up for you.



Come what may, I am here with you.
