Wisdom For Your Design

Grow The F#&% UP??

To suggest that somebody might have the desire or need to grow up is a bold statement. After all we are adults with responsibility and commitment, we have brought children into this world, we own homes and cars etc. Despite the truth of all those grown up acts, we can be emotionally child like inside our adult bodies. Grow The F#&% Up is intended to be an urgent call to action; a metaphor for a deep desire for personal growth and change. At the same time there is an interesting

balancing act that is taking place. By building a relationship with our emotions and ourselves we create space for our inner child to re-emerge. We can find balance between our adult selves and the joy, innocence and wonder of our inner child that we may have forgotten. If you go to the homepage of this website you will find a list of "Signs" which can indicate an imbalance. When we are out of balance we are likely disconnected from the energy of our inner child and our purpose.
I am convinced that most people do not grow up...We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies, and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are innocent and shy as magnolias.”  ~ Maya Angelou
There is also likely a discomfort or inner struggle taking place which we feel, but don't necessarily know how to address. We then turn to things that numb this discomfort. Brene Brown said "The problem with numbing our feelings is that we also numb the good feelings like joy etc."

For Men the most intense sign that there is an imbalance or disconnect is when there is anger. Anger can come out sideways when not acknowledged. Anger is fear turned outward and can literally destruct our relationships and our lives. (3 Steps to Embracing Anger)
“We're all just walking each other home.” ~ Ram Dass.
When we are connected to our purpose and our inner child feels seen and nurtured, we can begin to experience the peace and joy that is available and begin to experience life without the stress and drama that is created from imbalance.

So if the phrase "Are you ready to Grow The F#&% Up" stirs something within you, makes you react, look in the mirror and reflect on your life; then I am grateful I found the courage to type those words for you to see.
The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise”
