It is not always easy for the warrior to fight the enemies of deception and false pride. Many times we depend on these modes of being for survival, as a way to get through each day in one piece. However, this is not the path of the sincere warrior who is always searching for the truth that is within.
To be true to yourself means to live every single day without fear. It is this emotion of fear that causes many people to hide behind a false persona. They are afraid of what others will think of them if they show who they really are. They are terrified of losing the friends and things that they have acquired due to living as someone they are not.
Sooner or later this mentality backfires and a person's true self is pushed out into the open for all to see. Some might try to find a way to ignore or cover up what has been exposed and avoid speaking the truth. They might try to do damage control so that people would ignore what they saw, but this is not the path of a warrior who is honest.
He decided to speak the truth moving forward from that experience. It was rough at first, but when he decided to become the warrior he knew he was, things began to change in a positive way for him. Through this period of struggle, he was able to look at himself in the mirror again and have peace within.
He noticed that people were quite forgiving despite all that he did to deceive them. This motivated him to be a better person and to live a life of sincerity and positivity. Justin realized that he did not have to be afraid of who he is or of what he truly desired. He now had to fight to be true to himself, but he had to learn not to let passion turn to anger.
When they see your efforts, they will try to discourage you in various ways. Many times this might not be intentional, but is simply a reflection of what they are struggling with inside. They are so used to insincere people and negative situations that they do not know how to live any other way. If a person is motivated to do good, they can easily lose this desire if they continue to be with these types of people.
He noticed that every time he was around his old friends, he would feel tired and drained. In their minds, Justin was weak and did not fit in with their way of doing things. Justin also realized that as a warrior, he had to be careful of the people he associated with and so he made the difficult decision to move on with his life without them.
The path of truth involves every single aspect of your life. It is not just about what others see or hear from you. It is more so about what you see and hear in yourself and the steps that you take to grow and be better each and every day.
