Mosley helped me with my first theory. It blew my mind, but stays with me.
She's gone through much more than me, and yet I was having so much trouble with pain when I was at Antioch. She told me: You cannot compare pain. Pain is pain.What grew from that is feelings are feelings. You must pay attention to them and honor yourself. If you have a certain feeling. You must be aware of it, convey it if it involves someone else and deal with it.
The second theory is that everyone is in constant crises. Including myself. Including yourself. It is how we handle it and treat each other. That is what life is ALL about. If I let someone walk all over me because they are going through crises I will forever be letting them walk all over me. I addition to or ignoring my own crises. Way way unhealthy.
Growing up as a Female I had anxiety and grew up in a narrow minded Christianity sect where shame was rampant.
So. As soon as I got out of there, I've been working on taking back what is mine: my space.
I have a right to be treated in a certain way. I have a right to my feelings. I have a right to my space.
And I vow I will learn to take up my space.
All of it.
And be a wonderful glowing person. Whole. Complete and giving.
The Golden Rule: Be a Good person.
Whatever good is to you. If you are good, you will love yourself.Then you can love the people around you.
Simple concepts to put everything in perspective.
