We all struggle with something.
You cannot get away with not having shit you have to deal with in your life. Experiences where there are wounds, ouchy bits, missing links, bumps in the road and areas where you just can't seem to get your shit together. The thing is though, the issue is not the struggles themselves. The issue is how we relate and respond to the struggles. Because the reality of life is challenges and flaws will ALWAYS be there. You cannot get rid of them EVER. To grow and evolve is to learn and fuck up, to take one step forward and two steps back and that is the human journey. And when you can humbly accept that the flaws and fuck ups are never going to end then you can stop harshly beating yourself up when they inevitably keep coming. You can stop trying in vain to desperately clear away all your shit to become perfect and start doing the real work which is learning how to be graceful and loving with yourself and others in the messy process that being a human is. Then when you witness your shit show up in yourself or your life, when you see that same pattern, that same trauma reoccurring, another hurdle, another flaw; |
