You wish to go back to your bed and crawl into your shell. At times this life gets a bit much. The challenges come after you one after another. Never forget that this is why you are here. You chose these lessons to help your soul to grow. If you want to run and hide, this is an indicator that you are being stretched. Stretching leads to growth.
Go ahead and retreat into your shell—this shell you call a body. There in the darkness where no others can assail you, ask to feel the love which you are. No greater strength will you find. Wear it like a suit of armor—not to keep others away, but so as to reflect upon all who see you the light you carry inside.
This armor gets a bit heavy at times. You may feel it as a burden, until you realize that like the body, this suit of armor merely gives form to the formless. Your true Self has no form and cannot be contained within a body. When you retreat inside you will understand this. So, escape for a while as you find the need. Before long you will stretch so much that no suit can contain you.
