Filter

As we age our filter seems to get less and less. Why is that? Well it could be because we've lived long enough to realize we do not need to tolerate BS anymore. We do not have time for excuses or fluff or anything in between. We are looking for real and authentic friendships, relationships, experiences and connections. We've learned this lesson through loss and the realization that all of the other "stuff" doesn't really matter. What matters is someone's character, honesty, and real connections. The lesson in this though, is that sometimes the "fluff" experiences and relationships were only at that level because that's where we kept them. We didn't try to go deeper. We weren't vulnerable enough and someone else's BS meter went off and we were filtered out. Take this new found feeling of wanting life to be authentic and infuse it in every aspect of your life from relationships, to friendships, to work. See how things become more clear, more real, and more meaningful once you realize your filter is more than just that - it's also your door to vulnerability.
