Keep Talking

Hello Everyone, 
Where there are two opposing sides, there will also be a middle. It can be hard to believe that there is a middle when we feel so passionate about our side, or so opposed to the other side. When we do not give up on a conversation and we keep pushing to communicate with each other, we can reach middle. When we do become afraid of difference and are intimidated by another not wanting what we want or not seeing what we see, we can stop communication and when we do, we will not find middle. We have to refuse to stop talking and focus on communicating so that we can find middle. Finding middle in a relationship frees us to keep going, growing and moving forward instead of moving backwards or not moving and not growing at all.  
Keep talking everyone and find middle as a team.
Have a great week and thanks for reading!

Contempt as a rule

Hello Everyone, 
According to Alice Miller, when we stop denying the reality of our past, we can then begin to mourn. When we begin to mourn, our contempt will start to cease. Miller speaks to the past and states that some things cannot be changed as they are irreversible. When we deny the reality of our experiences or the emotions surrounding them, we may begin to experience contempt. Contempt doesn't feel good and we can use it in an effort to deny our reality and to attempt not feel our emotions. Miller goes on to write that we are liberated when we consciously experience our emotions. 
I hope that you give yourself permission to accept, express and own the reality of your past. I also hope that you learn to express your emotions consciously instead of denying them, regardless of what others in your life may tell you. We all have our own experience and our own truths, and we all deserve the right and freedom to our reality.  
Take care everyone and thanks for reading.
