The Reflection Behind Anonymous Posts

It’s incredible how many anonymous posts we see nowadays.And if we think about it, that reality also reflects something very sad.Nobody writes anonymously “just because.” There’s always a reason, a wound, or a fear behind it.

Some of the reasons I’ve noticed are:

• fear of being judged

• shame of asking for help or of feeling less

• the well-known “what will people say”

• fear of reprisals for expressing an honest opinion

• not wanting to take responsibility for an opinion, but still wanting to share it

• not daring to show their face because they don’t want people to know they’re going through a hard time, but still needing help

• because, in the end, posting anonymously is better than not posting at all, when the need to speak up and ask for help is too big.

In any case, posting anonymously is better than staying silent.It means that, despite the fear, there’s a real need to express, to release the pain, to not feel alone.And that, too, has value.

But this isn’t an isolated situation.It’s a reflection of the society we live in: a society where we don’t always feel safe, where judgment and comparison rule, and where life is often driven by ego and insecurity.

I lived this myself.For years, I didn’t dare to tell anyone anything. And back then, there were no social networks to post anonymously. I’m sure that if they had existed, I would have done it… because I desperately needed someone to listen, someone who might be going through something similar and could help me, advise me, guide me, or at least tell me that everything was going to be okay.

When I finally dared to speak about my life, about something “socially frowned upon,” many people were surprised and congratulated me for my strength.And yes, I appreciate that… but what I really want to share is not the result, but the journey.

Because it didn’t happen overnight.It was a long process of facing the beliefs that hurt me: that my worth depended on what I had, on my family, or on other people’s approval. Beliefs I had learned without questioning, and that made me feel less.

Little by little, I understood that all of those were just learned thoughts.And that if I had once believed in ideas that hurt me, I could also start choosing new ones that gave me strength and peace.

That’s when I discovered something fundamental: everything we feel comes from what we think.So I began to practice.I trained my mind to think differently.At first, it was hard, because my mind was used to walking down the same old paths. But with time and practice, I started noticing a change: my new thoughts created new emotions. And those emotions made me feel lighter, safer, more connected to myself.

Over time, I remembered that I was a being of light, whole, worthy of love and abundance.And that’s when the fears began to dissolve.

I realized that the decisions or choices my parents made do not define me.That my story doesn’t limit my value.And that if someone wants to say or think negative things about me, it’s better to know who they are so I can walk away from them.

Today I know that if you choose consciously, you can select the thoughts that bring you closer to the life you dream of, instead of the ones that limit you.

When you remember that you are part of a whole, of a divine intelligence, and you align your values with that Source, there’s nothing left to hide.No more masks.

There’s only you.Being yourself openly, with pride, and with love.

For those who post anonymously 💌

If you’ve ever chosen to write without your name, I want you to know something: there’s nothing to be ashamed of.Your words matter, even if they carry no signature. Your need to express yourself is valid and deeply human.

We all have moments when it’s hard to show ourselves openly, and that doesn’t make you less. On the contrary: it speaks of your sensitivity, of your fears, but also of your desire to be heard.

The only thing I want to say is this: you are not alone.And even if you don’t attach your name today, your voice still has strength and deserves to be heard. 🌱

Just remember: what you feel doesn’t come from what happens to you, but from what you think about what happens to you.Your thoughts are powerful, and even if they hurt today, they can also be transformed.Just as we once believed thoughts that hurt us, we can also choose others that hold us, bring us peace, and give us strength.

Love,

Linda
