Transmuting rocks into Gold (by Keren Obara)
In life, people will throw stones and rocks at you. Selena Gomez’s interview for My mind and Me is a gem. She is what I describe as a true alchemist. She took everything going on in her life and turned it into gold.
I love when she describes that fear can be diluted when you understand what you are afraid about and realize that it cannot destroy you.
One thing my dad always tells me is that fear is unreal. The people in the world that make themselves look big and scary cannot really do anything to you. Real strength comes from within, and that inner strength comes from spending time with yourself and truly understanding who you are.
I can truly relate to Miss Selena when she says, “it doesn’t matter what happens, I am still Selena.”
Nobody can take away who you really are. No matter what people do, if you embrace yourself, you will always be you, and you will always shine.
You can channel your inner alchemist and transmute fear into growth. If Selena could overcome everything she went through and still be authentic for herself, then you too can overcome seemingly dreadful and scary entities that show up in your life.
Selena has taught me that no matter what happens, stay true to who you are, protect who you are, grow yourself and follow your calling in life. In this way, evil people will never win.
