This was the question I asked myself when I began to write from my first book, when I decided it was time to be honest with myself in the most compassionate way. Several books later and a whole lotta growth, healing and maturity, this is what I can honestly say.
When the faces keep changing but the same arguments, resentments and disappointments keep arriving, it may be time to wonder what we are bringing into the room. That can be a humbling little discovery, especially when we had such a well-prepared speech about everyone else.
We can have been hurt and still have behaviours that hurt others, we can have a valid feeling and express it in a way that damages a relationship. Someone else remains responsible for the harm they caused, and there is room for us to become honest about the choices that belong to us.
Maybe we say yes and then resent someone for asking, expect people to understand needs we have never spoken, or become so busy defending our intentions that we stop listening to the impact of our actions. Sometimes we are waiting for everyone else to change while continuing to show up in exactly the same way.
There may be a deeper why underneath it all, a fear of rejection, a belief that being wrong makes us unworthy, or an old hurt that has us preparing for a fight before we know whether one is coming. Understanding that part of ourselves deserves tenderness, along with an honest look at what it may be costing us and the people we love.
We can hold ourselves accountable with enough compassion to stay present for what we discover, allowing ourselves to say, “I can see where I contributed to this, and I would like to understand why I keep doing it.”
I wonder what might change if we became as curious about our own behaviour as we are certain about everyone else’s.
