Hello you beautiful soul! 🙏🌏
‘Growth hurts, changes hurt. But that pain leads you to progress. Staying somewhere where you feel unappreciated and unloved hurts, and that pain leads to suffering and misery. Which pain do you choose?’
Changes are painful, as is growth.. But nothing is as painful as when you decide to stay where you feel unloved or where you don’t love someone.
Pain is part of life.
There are different types of pain.. Some pains are necessary and important. There are those pains that lead you to freedom, and then those that lead you to suffering. This other kind of pain is a consequence of your influence.. as if you are participating in your own misery, because suffering is necessary only until you realize that is not necessary. That pain shows a lack of self-love and non-acceptance of things as they are.
So ask yourself if you love yourself? Because everything starts from there.
For example, why would you stay somewhere where you feel unloved, unfulfilled or disrespected? Not everyone will love or respect you, but you always need to respect and love yourself.. hence why, in such situations, you distance yourself from everyone or everything that provides additional stress.
And.. if, right now, you can’t move away for various reasons, that’s ok, it doesn’t mean you won’t. However, you should have things clear in your head.
Don’t be afraid of doing what is right for you.
And of course changes will scare you and of course every change will not feel great at first, but don’t let that stop you.. because you are making these changes for your own good. You deserve love.
Other reasons why people don’t dare to walk away, are because separations hurt and they’re afraid of the unknown. Rather they decide to settle for crumbs, staying where they are. They are familiar with that pain, they know how to handle it. That way they turn their life into misery, settling for constant pain, they convert it into suffering, following their fears.
They already live in pain, but they decide not to change anything because of fears and painful changes? Does that make sense to you? It doesn’t make sense to me either.
There are other fears as well.. What will people say? How will others react? Will anyone change their mind about them? Will they be judged? Etc.
Whatever fear might be, only shows they decide not to face situations and people, in order to avoid possible misunderstandings, arguments, anger, etc. and therefore allow other people’s opinions to dictate how to live their lives.
In this way they accumulate dissatisfaction in themselves, being at war with themselves = they know that they are not listening to themselves.. and what is right for them.
They live according to the expectations of others, maintaining false peace on the outside, and unrest within.
They suppress their emotions. And all this leads to other problems that will reflect on health sooner or later.. and then instead of solving the cause of the problem, they look for ‘quick remedies’ to fix consequences.
I will remind you that you don’t need to suffer but to love yourself.
Depending on when you’re reading this, I wish you either a beautiful day or a good night, you beautiful soul! 💙🙏
Love and namaste,
Irina
