About This Quote
Disclosure is not about revealing secrets or anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, it’s about stripping the illusion of your body and shining a light on your soul. As you can see, rejection can be a powerful tool to use when it comes to fighting the urge to hide your true self. When you are faced with rejection, take a moment to reflect on what you are willing to do to make someone else feel good. Are you willing to give up your comfort comfort zones? Are you ready to deal with rejection?
