Even in the face of attack, love doesn’t feel threatened … ♥️
When we trigger somebody’s I’m-not-good-enough wound, they may attack us. We don’t have to attack back. Love doesn’t feel threatened; and we don’t have to feel threatened, either. We can be an example of love, and coming to peace and community even in the face of the inevitable chaos created by somebody else’s fear-based defensiveness. That said, sometimes being an example of love means detaching yourself from abuse, while learning what you can from the experience.
Let’s say your partner learned to be stoic (rather than express his emotions) in order to win his father’s acceptance. It was a matter of survival!

You can be part of that process, without sticking around for it to play out.

Try again … regardless of the results!
It doesn’t matter if we’ve “failed” one time or one thousand times, it’s never, ever, ever too late to start again! And it’s not about the result; it’s about learning that it’s not! It’s about being true to yourself, regardless of the results! Life is “rigged” for us to “win.” And winning is simply aligning with our true self, with our essence of love, the law written on our hearts. When we do that, nothing else matters; but everything else is there! … More
