A Healing Journey 📜
Life is a rollercoaster. You never know when the next dip is happening or the next turn is turning. It just happens, unexpectedly. That is life. But how do you handle it?
An unhealed person would’ve asked; Why does this keep happening to me, why always me. I don’t want this to happen so I’m going to dig myself down a hole and I’m not coming up until it all has passed.
As an unhealed human being you haven’t gathered your tools yet to handle even the simplest things that life has thrown at you.
You are usually your hardest critic and it’s not not really your fault. How many adults in your life have been hard on you? How many times didn’t you get yelled at for not being to careful, got blamed for things you couldn’t change and pushed down from people who were supposed to help you handle life. So is it strange that you don’t have the tools for how to handle life yet?
A healed version with tools; wouldn’t be a critic. Not to others and not to self.
The other day I had my brother over and I accidentally bumped into my two axes on the floor so they fell and chipped my wall. I looked at them and the wall and said “Well that happened, not much I can do about that. Glad it wasn’t worse”.
He looked at me surprised and asked “Why didn’t you get more mad or anxious about what just happened?” I said “Could I have done anything to stop it? No. Is my emotions right now going to affect the damage on the wall? No, yet again. I can’t do anything about it, so why worry?”.
If I would’ve criticize myself in that moment I would’ve been like all the unhealed versions I had around me growing up.
I know better now, I have my tools and I am my best friend. I am healing in an safe environment.
Things will always happen to you, whether it’s good or bad doesn’t matter. It’s how you handle the reaction after it happens. 🧠🔥
