You Were Never Meant to Fit In

You were never meant to stay within the lines drawn by others.

You were never meant to silence your knowing for the comfort of conformity.

You were never meant to walk the path already paved.

You were meant to see beyond it.

The ones they call heretic are often the ones who refuse to bow to fear.

The ones who dare to ask the forbidden questions.

Because isn’t it interesting…

That those labeled as dangerous, wild, untamed—

Were often the ones closest to truth?

The mystics.

The healers.

The women who spoke to the earth.

The seekers who questioned the church.

The ones who saw through the illusion and could not be deceived.

The heretic is not the lost one.

The heretic is the one who remembers what was meant to be forgotten.

Some will fear that fire.

Others will be ignited by it.

But you?

You were always meant to burn with knowing.

If this stirs something in you, tell me—what is one truth you have always known, even when the world told you otherwise?
