Being Behind Is Also About Being Ahead
If you are behind, that’s not a bad or wrong thing. It is a perception created by a dysfunctional world that devalues the presence of patience, peace, and protection. You may be feeling the weight of your circumstances and your position in the world; that is not your fault. You have the capacity to revision the illusory race perpetuated by society by simply realizing you never agreed to be part of it in the first place. While others race forward, you may be somewhere behind, enjoying the treasure of what is there — basking in the glory of your life. That does not make your place any less valuable than anywhere else. It makes it yours. It is — and so, it has made your life worthwhile.
And if you’re ready to walk on, you might notice there’s no one around you anymore. Even that is okay. It shows that you have valued your time, your space, and your energy so deeply that you’ve ensured your own path — one without competition or hierarchy, one full of grace.
By being you, you receive transformations that are not man-made, but soul-derived, sacred. They are gifts. Do not let anyone, anything, or any unseen force convince you otherwise. You are undeniably true when you are who you were always meant to be — designed to be, loved to be.
Just because the world measures worth doesn’t mean your value is known. This very nature reveals that society lacks the inner and outer sight to recognize truth and genuine worth. Your intrinsic value on this planet is undeniable. Claim it.
The notion of “being behind” suggests that you are irresponsible, that you lack something that makes others “ahead.” But the truth is that your ability to respond is not like others’. You are abundant in what makes you. Each person in society has their own personas, their own evolutions, and their own declarations in this reality — and some choose to dominate their reality over others. Let that not cast a shadow over your life. Choose the shade of your own stance, your own self-responsibility. You are responsible for your profound healing — for your courage in staying with yourself through this life. It is not easy, but it can be. When you allow love to support your life, you will come to know ease in new ways.
When you feel shame about your place in the world, let that be a mark of how deeply you care about your values — and a signal to hold accountable what has made you feel less than yourself. Who gave you shame, when you know you are the gift of this world? Whose failure to love you held you back from the grace of Sacred Source? Who can you be when you remember none of that matters — as you grow beyond illusions, shining brightly, just as you were always meant to shine?
Please rest. Let your “behind-ness” in life be the affirmation that your worth is not up for debate, but held with love. There is strength in slowing down. Your next chapter is here.
“Even without what I hope to have right now, I am valuable, lovable, and wise. I allow myself to rest, care, nourish, play, and work without guilt. I am growing in ways the world cannot see, and I trust that support will meet me as I honour my truth.”
Let this be a day of soft grace. You are not alone.
