Boo hoo, poor me


We've all been there 
I've been there.
I speak from experience 

This post is for my friend as well as my own inner victim .

The hardest thing for you to realise when you ARE there, in curled up cowering in a foetal position ,  is that you CAN choose another reality , another story , You can think differently about the situation .
HOw ?

After feeling the pain and crying a bucket load of tears , dis- identify .
Extract yourself from the situation and the story that you are telling yourself. 
Distance yourself from the situation that is causing your grief.
Put distance between , your ' boo hoo victim ' story and the powerful magnificent being that you essentially ARE .
Let the capable strong creative adult in you take over. 


Look at the facts :


" This has all changed " 
As you say: 
" They won't let me do this and that " 
WHY ? 
Because you have given someone else your power.

O.K. THINGS HAVE CHANGED 
This is the reality of it .
THIS that you have to deal with.

I feel so very sad for you dear friend - but it doesn't help.
I also feel ANGRY on your behalf 
My anger is defending you until you can defend yourself ,
My anger is telling you :

 ' PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER  ! '

 At this point , The JOKER in me steps in and reminds me of a few jokes.

Doctor doctor , I feel like a pair of curtains !
Pull yourself together , Lad  !

Doctor doctor ,, I feel like a pack of cards .
SIt over there , I'll deal with you later.

Doctor doctor, I'm feeling like a sheep.
That's baaaaaaaaad

It is always on THEIR  terms.
SO .....

Question is : What are you going to do about it ?

Question is : What CAN you do about it ?

Thinking cap on ... there must be a solution somewhere.

Be PRO active rather than submissive and passive, which doesn't seem to have worked for you so far, has it ?


I love you my friend xxxx
