What did I learn today? Lessons on the Journey to Unconditional Self Love - This word is not in my vocabulary

Shame hates it when we reach out and tell our story. It hates having words wrapped around it--it can't survive being shared. Shame loves secrecy. The most dangerous thing to do after a shaming experience is hide or bury our story. When we bury our story, the shame metastasizes Brene Browne

Confession or maybe the better term is pet peeve - using the word shame
loosely! OMG I just refuse, I cannot! In our culture it is used often,
someone is telling a story " Oh I was so shame, girl" someone laughs at a
joke "Shame" I refuse to use it, just refuse to use the word, its not in my
vocabulary! I want it to remain outside of my consciousness whether in a
joke or not, it may just be my issues but hey I am owning it! "Shame" I have seen stop so many actions- I have heard numerous times " I
am too shame to do that" said just like that! Huh? What are you "shame"
about? I absolutely refuse to use the word! Okay rant over Shame says something is wrong with me, and hey as India Arie says " I know
my creator didn't make no mistakes on me" so I am not or will never
be "shame" End of rant! Peace
