I wish I'd read this five years ago when I was holding on to the fact that I got bad grades in school. Men I was so hung up on travelling back in time and actually putting my phone and reading. I knew that my bad grades were my fault, and I carried the guilt with me for many years.
If I had done what you suggest here, which is to just sit with my feelings, and figure why I felt such crippling guilt, at least I would be focusing on the present and who knows, I'd have found a way to move on.
You post is a gem to people feeling stuck. This would help a great deal of people.
My favorite quote is "fear is a mile wide and an inch deep". It might look like the whole world is gonna fall apart, but when we actually face our fears, we realise, it wasn't so bad after all.
Amazing piece!
Thanks, love. I'm glad this resonated. I'm also glad you found your own way getting unstuck. You seem to be doing fine on your own ;)
I was not familiar with that quote, thank you for it!!
