What? A Blog??

Hey there! Welcome to the blog, Divine Direction with Diana. This is where I'll be sharing insights and stories of my journey in discovering my truest self with you all, in turn guiding you all along your journeys as well.

Some of you might be thinking, say whaaaaat?! And for a long time, I was too.

I can see my old introverted self turn into a deer in headlights as the doubt creeps in and I’m caught in a weak moment thinking to myself “What could I possibly have to share??” But the truth is, it doesn’t matter. Someone somewhere will connect to the words I write and that’s really what it’s all about. And if the thought is in my head, chances are someone else is thinking about it too.

In the book, Daring Greatly, Brene Brown talks about the strength you acquire and the joy you find in being vulnerable. In embracing your flaws and accepting yourself as you are, whole-heartedly. In a society where perception and image tend to be in the forefront, can you be the one to crack open and allow yourself to be seen?

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been good with vulnerability (at least, that is an old story I told myself). It *used* to freak me out to the point where I would want to run in the opposite direction. I have lived most of my life hiding behind my own shadow, in fear of being judged. But, you will always be judged, whether true or not. Someone will always have an opinion and their perception of you is theirs. It is not your responsibility. People will accept you or they won’t. In the end it all boils down to what you think and how you feel about you. It’s certainly a process, and it is definitely not sunshine and rainbows – things can get messy and uncomfortable, but it is sooo worth it in the end.

After all, if you're not living for you, then what's the point?
