When you see me or hear my name

you may feel uncomfortable and tense.

I may scare you.

I may be your shadow.

In reality I am a potential friend for you.

I am here to help you to blossom with

all the unacknowledged beauty within you.

Your ego does not like me

because of the lessons I bring to you.

Perhaps you need to learn from me that I grow my entire life.

Perhaps you need to learn from me that

I shed my skin every year due to my growth.

Maybe, like me,

 you need to work on your growth all your life.

Maybe, like me,

 you need to shed (let go of) things that no longer serve you.

Your ego does not like me

because of the lessons I bring to you

Perhaps you need to learn from me that

I do not trust what I “see”.

Maybe you, like me,

need to trust and use your other senses.

Your ego does not like me

because of the lessons I bring to you.

Perhaps you need to learn from me that

I pick up the energy of the environment that I am in.

Perhaps when you are around people with negative energy

you can tune into their energy but

be aware not to take on their energy.

I am your potential friend.

I am your shadow.

I am a face of your soul.
