“Live Into” Rather Than “Live Up To” (A Witch’s Perspective)

Yeah, I flunked kindergarten. This made me into “compliant girl.” I had to live up to my parents’ standards about my grades and more. By the way, eventually, I was diagnosed as a person who has dyslexia.

So, there’s that phrase “live up to.”

As a girl, if I said anything original and an expression of my true self, I was chastised.

Yes, these were the parents who dragged me to THEIR church.

Recently, I had a conversation with a spiritual elder. The topic of “live into” versus “live up to” arose.

We, Witches, are called to LIVE INTO the divinity the Goddess and God placed within us.

We do not need to gain someone’s approval.

Each one of us is a unique expression of that divinity.

I remember one of my early boyfriends. I did not feel comfortable expressing my Wiccan spiritual path. So, I said nothing.

Are you finding that you tend to “live up” to someone else’s expectations?

What if you were free to “live into” your true spiritual path and destiny?

Here is a prayer you can use.

My Gracious Lady,
Help me let go of others’ limiting expectations,
Lord of the Greenwood,
Help me live into my true destiny!
So Mote It Be

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
