If I have one wish, it is to be authentic. I started thinking about this when I was watching a U Tube interview. The interviewer was very fake but the person being interviewed was very authentic. She said she tried to be so. She was a chaplain and she was very sensitive to listening to people and really hearing them.
It is very hard to be authentic in a society that shames us for being different in anything.What do you all think?

Commenting as someone whom LL Forum Moderators have now "authentically" labelled as a troll and sociopath-with-a-Messiah-complex, I suspect that "things are said best when we say nothing at all".

If you do something wrong, you should say you are sorry. That is being a really special person!

So ... fingers crossed that AQUAGUY and the Mods apologise to me.

Yes. ... I get that you can only see it in the following way :-

"It will take me some time to process my guilt, and what I have learned from the related event(s). ... But, I can now see/understand how I entered the Safe Place In The Realm of the LL Kingdom and non-mindfully "followed the orders of my conditioning/habitual-behaviour" (to bayonet the wounded, and those whom have befriended them).

I am truly sorry for doing so, and apologise here to all those that have been hurt by my related actions/comments." (Graham)

I think the first thing it takes to be an authentic person is the courage to be vulnerable.

Admitting when you are wrong, is a really good start. It’s entirely possible to disagree with someone, without hating them, and diagnosing them with conditions they don’t have.

People here are diagnosing others? Who are the doctors, psychologist and psychiatrists amongst us and when did the assessments take place and how long for?

It's a deep question, Ami.

It is something I have been working on lately.

It takes dedicated effort. The tendency to be inauthentic is very strong.

Most people really struggle to show who they are down deep. I think it is harder to show our hearts when our Moon is in a struggling position, which could be a square to the ASC, 12th house, a hard aspect with Saturn and other things too.

People value acceptance over authenticity and fear criticism and rejection.

So true, Randall! How did you manage to come to this wisdom, Randall? I am interested in the small steps. My goal now is to be an authentic person. I have done the thinks I have wanted, so to speak, and now it is inner.

For me and my journey toward authenticity, it involves getting more clarity about my core ethics and standards, my hopes and dreams. Those are not always set in stone, and sometimes they evolve.

Ultimately, for me, being an authentic person means becoming the change I want to see.

It hasn't always been easy. I used to be very shy, and I still can be. But I was still myself, most of the time, and I had my limits - like when I refused to give a bully my lunch, or stood up to my brother-in-law.

I almost wrote a lot more - this actually had a lot of stuff running through my head, so I might come back.
