27 January 2020 = Making Life Difficult for Ourselves

The questions which then arise are HOW? and WHY? One way in which we can sometimes make life difficult is by leaving everything to the last minute and thereby creating a situation in which we have to rush to get everything done. Another way is by not keeping our promises to others or, to ourselves, and then we feel guilty. And sometimes. instead of speaking our truth to others and informing them how upset we feel by their actions we keep our feelings to ourselves until this becomes so uncomfortable we implode.

The question WHY we do this is I do not find easy to answer.

INDEED, WHY DO WE CHOOSE TO GIVE OUR POINT OF POWER AWAY?

Is it because we feel happier feeling powerless and thereby evading responsibility for our actions — for our ‘selves’?

Is it because in blaming others we feel in control thereby deflecting any responsibility for the situation from ourselves?
