When Both Stories Are True

For most of my life, I wanted my mother to admit to what had happened to me.

I wanted her to say it out loud that my childhood had been riddled with abuse, that her choices (or her silence) shaped so much of the shame I carried, that my pain was real and not exaggerated. I spent years either pleading for acknowledgment or steeling myself against the reality that it might never come. And every time she told her version of the past... sanitized, selective, drenched in denial, it felt like another violation.

Like my experience was being erased.

But then something changed.

It wasn’t that she finally came around.
It was that I did.

There came a moment in my awakening when I realized:
We’re not all living in the same reality.

Every soul on this planet is walking a unique timeline—crafted moment by moment through perception, belief, frequency, and choice.

And while our timelines may intersect, they are not the same. They are sovereign, self-selected, and real to each of us.

We may cross paths, share moments, even share blood, but what looks like denial, avoidance, or distortion from someone else… might actually be the truth of the timeline they lived.

Which means her story, the one I had spent decades resenting, is true… for her.
Just like my story is true for me.

This isn’t what people call spiritual bypassing. This is quantum clarity.

Her denial no longer feels like betrayal.
It just feels like… a different channel.

When this dropped in for me, the grief was immediate.
And then—relief.
A profound, cellular, energetic relief.

Because suddenly I didn’t need to be right.
I didn’t need to fight for a shared memory.
I didn’t need an apology to move on.
I didn’t need to keep explaining myself or defending my truth.
I didn’t need her timeline to match mine in order for mine to be valid.

This is what spiritual mastery through pleasure feels like: liberation from the need for alignment where it simply does not exist.

Freedom = pleasure.

We are not here to drag people into our timelines.
We are not here to make others see what they cannot (or are not ready to) see.
We are here to take full responsibility for our reality—and to let others have theirs.

I no longer need to “make sense” of someone else’s behavior. Instead, I get to turn all my energy toward my own path—my now, and my future.

And in that space, there is no need for a villain.
No need for a victim.
Just two beings, walking different roads.

And all I need to do is choose where mine leads me.

In sovereignty,
Sharon
