Download or read book Twin Flame Runner Fears written by Silvia Moon and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's much more than just feeling unworthy, there are deep-seated fears within the runner Twin Flame that affect the actions and behaviors of a runner Twin Flame. For me, I felt this unexplainable fear within myself that triggered feelings of unworthiness and personal insecurity. The more I thought of the possibilities of being in the presence of my Twin Flame, I felt like it accelerated my fears of not being good at loving him back. Meeting my Twin Flame filled me up with bliss and harmony but it also exposed the broken parts of me that I was ignoring. I instantly dropped the bad habits and adopted new ones. But still, a deeper part of myself needed healing. I kept asking myself; "Why does my Twin Flame make me feel uncomfortable sometimes?" "Why do I love Him so much that I don't feel worthy of the love that I feel?" Sometimes I could find silly reasons to distance myself from my Twin Flame but he couldn't stay away either. As a previous runner Twin Flame, I struggled with accepting unconditional love because I wondered if there was a hidden "motive" as to why my Twin Flame loves me that way. I wondered why he loves me the way he does yet I didn't feel like I was special enough to deserve it. It all goes back to the beginning. The fear that I felt when my Twin Flame came into my life goes back to how I was raised and what kind of love relationships that I had encountered in the past. I was wounded from the core of my soul. I had this emotional pain that I had suppressed over the years. I also learned that if I look back to my childhood and upbringing my "inner child" was in fear of the world. I have always felt like I was surrounded by pain and suffering. I embraced this as a big part of my life that affected how I perceived the world and everything around me. I learned that my inner child only knew pain instead of love. The fact that unconditional love was not part of my early life, I had no idea what it felt like when someone openly showed it to me. As I write this, I had a lot of lessons to learn about life, unconditional love, and self-love but none of these lessons have been easy. Some lessons have been so difficult that I almost doubted being a Twin Flame. Other lessons I learned without realizing that I was going through the process. And the most difficult lessons are those that involved unlearning my previous bad habits and mental conditions. During some of my difficult lessons, I could go to my knees and beg the universe to take the pain away. I wanted all the stress and the frustration of missing my Twin Flame to stop. With the Twin Flame connection, for me, it felt like a "beautiful curse". Meeting my Twin Flame is the best feeling ever, but also the most Soul challenging experience that I ever experienced. I hope that my experience is helpful to you to gives you a fresh perspective on your Journey. If you need some more inspiration, I created simple easy to read self-help reads to inspire you. There are also very helpful tips for those who are new to the Twin Flame experience. I wish you blessings and love on your journey.

Now, in Shadow Valley, the astounding sequel, we follow the Ibandi people’s odyssey through a land where everything has changed—a land from whose ashes will grow the roots of civilization and the enduring truths of love, family, forgiveness, and faith. After the catastrophic eruption of Father Mountain, the Ibandi are divided, desperate, and afraid. Most have followed the only person in whom they still believe: young Sky Woman, who was on the great mountain when it exploded and who, along with Frog Hopping, returned to tell the tale. Nurtured by an elder whose searing visions have left her blind, Sky Woman nonetheless doubts her own visionary powers as she follows a path she can hardly discern—across savannah and parched plains—to find a valley of plenty for a people on the brink of collapse. But in fact, Sky Woman and Frog were not the only survivors of the mountain’s explosion. Another man has emerged from the destruction, vengeance pulsing in his veins, to lead a separate group of Ibandi into a vicious and reckless act of war. Soon these two strands of survivors will meet, through chance, desperation, and sheer willpower. In a world in which every moment is lived on the edge between life and death, where animal and human predators can strike in an instant, where the gods themselves seem lost, and dreams entwine with reality, a people’s destiny rushes toward them. The Ibandi must make a last, violent stand against complete destruction. In this hypnotic, thrilling, and beautiful novel, Steven Barnes explores relationships between friends and lovers, leaders and followers, strangers and allies. At once visceral and soaringly insightful, Shadow Valley is about who we are as human beings today as seen through the wondrous prism of our distant past.
