“This way of life requires living in integrity: ensuring that my inner self and my outer self are integrated. Integrity means having only one self. Dividing into two selves – the shown self and the hidden self – that is brokenness, so I do whatever it takes to stay whole. I do not adjust myself to please the world. I am myself wherever I am, and let the world adjust.”
Glennon Doyle, Untamed

I’ll be watching for this. Could be challenging. My inner self is much more of an introvert. But I’ve been more integrated since retirement. For me, it’s a process.

I agree. Mine has been a back and forth of forgetting then remembering what I need to do to get back in line with myself.

So true. Sometimes I need a little reminder to fight dividing into two selves.
