Contradictions vs. Complexity



I am humble and confident.
I am sensitive and aggressive.
I am educated and wild.

I am peaceful and chaotic.
I am an introvert and love to be seen.
I am ocd level organized and spontaneous.

I am rational and deeply intuitive.
I am controlling and freely creative.
I am shy and loud.

I am meticulous and silly.
I am strict and forgiving.
I am, as any Leo, always right and do things that are wrong.

I am a creature of habit and get easily bored.
I am extremely impulsive and overthink.
I am bold and anxious.

I am rigid and free.
I am very motherly and distant.
I am silent and opinionated.

I am independent and clingy.
I am an empath and brutally honest.
I am funny and sarcastic.

I am loving and firm with my boundaries.
I am sad and euphoric.
I am soft and fierce.

There was a time when I felt my body get tight with the burden of having to choose a certain identity and lifestyle.
Each time this still happens I tell my inner critic: thanks, I got this.
The inner child that holds shame got confused. He thinks he should be nice and cute.
But we don't do that anymore.

I have a tattoo that says:
El baile de la vida.
(The dance of life.)
In this dance, each move can become one of embodying a certain aspect of ourselves.
Many of which will contradict the last pose.
In such a perfect way.
A contrast that shows you are fully alive.
That life flows through you.

As Walt Withman famously said:

"Do I contradict myself?
Very well then, I contradict myself.

I am large, I contain multitudes."
