There’s a quote that stopped me in my tracks this week. It’s simple, direct, and rings so true, it echoes in the chambers of my soul.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once said,
“Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves.”
I read it.
I breathed it in.
And yes… I cried.
Because if I’m honest—truly honest—I’ve caught myself lately playing small. Smiling when something actually stings. Saying, “It’s fine” when it’s not. Showing up strong on the outside while quietly avoiding something tender on the inside.
Not to deceive.
But to cope.
Yet here’s the truth:
We can’t keep playing games with ourselves and expect to feel peace.
We can’t abandon our own truth and expect to feel whole.
So, let me ask you this, beloved soul:
What games are you playing with yourself?
Is it the game of pretending you’re not tired?
Or the game of pretending you don’t care?
Or maybe it’s the game of telling yourself you’re fine being unseen, unheard, or unfulfilled?
Your soul knows.
It’s not judging you.
It’s gently calling you back.
Back to your truth.
Back to your center.
Back to peace.

Place your hand on your heart and softly affirm:
“I release the need to play a game of keeping it all together. I welcome truth with grace. I am safe to be real. I am mE.”
You don’t have to hold it all together.
You just have to hold your truth gently—and return to your heart.
God’s grace is indeed sufficient for you.
You are safe.
You are loved.
You are whole.
🌟 It’s your turn to return to peace.
Surrender to LOVE,
Vica
