More Lessons to Learn

For every step forward, there are two steps back, as the saying goes.  After I finally stabilized somewhat over the issues involving my father, I am working on my issues involving my mother.  Her issues are hard for me because my mother suffers from mental illness, so it’s easier to forgive her for her past actions.  Nevertheless, she caused great fear in me when she became angry and out of control with throwing things and physically striking me out of rage.  She also was paranoid believing that others were out to get her and hurt her, so she would emotionally strike back at me with mean and cruel statements when she perceived that I was out to hurt her.

These are hard issues as I have tried to suppress much of this fear of physical and emotional abuse storing so much of this pain in my painbody.  With so much repressed pain in my painbody, I have attracted many women with controlling, competitive, irrational, and erratic behaviors into my life.   Some of these mentally ill women exhibited these similar traits.

When i began working on these issues, I recognize that I have tolerated these behaviors from these women as I have become habituated to being treated in a certain negative way.  It’s an addiction the pain resulting from these negative treatments. As I interact with them, I have felt pain, and understand that it is the pain within my own painbody that caused me to react to these women.   This is the pain within me, and as long as this pain remains within me, I will continue to attract the same in the future.  Healing light and love, Brooke (Copyright 2013 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)

  1. Every step taken, no matter which direction, is necessary for all of us. Sometimes we attach to much negativity to the step back. Detaching ourselves from what we have learned allows us to really see how things really are.

      1. Thank you for your post. I can relate to a lot of your past experiences. It’s easy to build up a child but to rebuild ourselves as adults takes great effort.

  2. Thank you for sharing your honest and open interractions with your family. Life is about learning and some of those great lessons as you mentioned come from family members. I have written a similar blog on my Happiness website http://elisebradfield.com/?p=967 about dealing with family and how we must decide if they come with us on our unique journey.
