The Wound of Being Misunderstood: A Personal Reflection

Description

Welcome back to A Little More Inspired! ✨

The other day, I woke up at like 6 AM — before I even had to get ready for work — with this immediate urge to write. The words were spilling out of me like an itch I needed to scratch. I was almost late to work, and I even forgot my phone, but I couldn’t help it… I just needed to get every word out. I love those creative pings.

Sometimes I feel this shadow hovering over me , this fear I can’t quite shake off. I’ve felt misunderstood my entire life, and over time, that starts to erode you from the inside. There’s a bitterness that simmers in the heart, an anger that rises when you think about how unfairly you’ve been treated. You keep hoping you’ll find meaning in it all… that if you can just understand the why, you’ll finally be able to let it go.

But sometimes…
there is no why — only acceptance.

This piece is an overview of my journey of overcoming the wound of rejection and the wound of being misunderstood. I always tell people: healing is a slow process. Sometimes you have to go through things, and you have to be open to the lessons those experiences bring, for it to finally get through your big hard head what truly matters.

God has given me a new confidence. He’s sealed my healing by showing me true love and by healing the unworthiness the world so desperately wanted to keep me in.

This piece is just a personal reflection. Writing is where I release my anger, my feelings, my clarity. So how I feel about this today might feel different tomorrow. I’m not stuck — I’m just allowing truth to move through me.

It is a bit long, so I hope you leave feeling a little more inspired. 💛
