Shadow Work

Wherever you go I am there

wherever you go I am there I was there — the shadow — even before you were born the intelligence that created me also created you to bear me — the shadow — and go through me and heal not to hide me —the shadow — with little petty tricks you got from the world I know you are rewarded here for hiding me I know you would be shamed to expose me but I got no place to go I got no option than to inflict pain upon you and the world I got no chance to disappear unless you start acknowledging me and do the real inner work — the shadow work make no bones with reality: either I am killing you or you are killing me

not starting the work of uncovering the shadows and to go through it and be useful to humanity in a genuine way we are taught to put up a facade and pat on our own back for covering up the shadow with our cleverness

The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few
