triggers

"Anything that you resent and strongly react to in another is also in you."
— Eckhart Tolle

This is a hard one to swallow especially when you really don’t like something about someone. It’s hard to even fathom that what you’re experiencing is something that you don’t like about yourself. All of our relationships give us an opportunity to grow either in strength or vulnerability. The question is- can you be open to the possibility that when you walk away from tough situations that you are walking away from digging deeper in your own life? Walking away from dysfunction takes courage but to really look at why you created the situation takes guts. Yes you created it. You create everything in your world and when you can own that and get the part that you play you will have more personal power.

What someone brings up in you is an opportunity for growth; the question is what do you do with it? I know what your ego wants to do, but what do you choose to do?

Today I am grateful for this peaceful moment.
