Coming into truth …

In the weeks ahead, I will be releasing everything in my mind that I’ve been guarding.

I will share very openly with you the thoughts and actions that I’ve been afraid and embarrassed to put out there. What has kept me from being fully transparent and truthful with myself and with you. What has kept me from being my most authentic and genuine self.

This is the stuff of my deepest despair, but also much of it is lighthearted, and I would even say comical. I will be sharing my financial past, my sexual past, becoming “Rob Greenfield” the public persona, my experience of working with TV and the struggles of my youth.

Some of you may decide to “cancel” me, not seeing the full human that I am, and instead putting me into a box. Grouping me together with others that you have stories about. I invite each of you to remember that you, too, have made decisions that are not in alignment with your deepest being. I invite each of you to remember that each of us is unique. We are complex humans that fit into no single narrative or label.

I believe in the power of transparency and honesty. I believe in this for all humans, and I especially believe in the power of these traits for our leaders. A leader for our fellow humanity is what I aim to be, and the sharing of myself is part of this. It is for me, and it is for all who I walk this path with. I have been growing and healing in the last ten years and sharing this depth of me is part of the healing and growing process.

I am no longer attached to being anything except myself. Not what others want me to be, not what others who I respect are, just me, as I am.
I love myself just the way I am. I do. I take full responsibility for who I am. And I want to be here to support others in loving and accepting themselves, and growing together.

Without this inner work together, I don’t see us ever creating harmonious relationships with our next door neighbors, our global neighbors, our Earth or the plants and animals we share this Earth with. I do not see us solving our great societal and environmental struggles.

I am shedding what no longer serves me. I think that having nothing to protect, nothing to guard, will deepen my connection with others. Will deepen my universal love. Will dissolve the illusion of separateness and meld me into an interconnectedness with all. Will bring me into a higher state of alignment and flow, that will aid in being of service

I’m experimenting with making my mind Creative Commons. Breaking down all the barriers of separation. When I no longer hold anything within my mind that is not freely accessible, what will happen? I don’t have many present day examples to learn from, so I can largely just guess at this point.

I will be sharing this truth as a series of videos. I contemplated writing, but I think that in video you will see not just my mind, but my heart and my emotions. The full me.

I am eager for what is to come and am grateful to be on this journey of reconnection with all of you.

Love,
Robin
