Often times we expect people we love to heal our broken hearts. When we realize our loved ones can’t heal our brokenness (for they are broken too) ... we often feel deeply disappointed and/or have feelings of being betrayed even. We can also spend a lot of time punishing people and having deep resentment  towards our loved ones for not behaving in a certain manner that makes our wounded hearts feel good ... all day, everyday. When I realized I’m the only one responsible for my pain, even if it’s someone else’s fault, I was really angry with the Higher Power because “I” felt entitled to everyone’s best behavior and love. When I finally found some humility and got over myself and surrendered to that Power that is far higher then “I” and do the work to be for myself what I was demanding everyone else to be FOR me ... I was able to find the Kingdom within and every bit of love and healing I had been looking for all along. Here’s to the journey✨ . Book: Love Without Conditions by Paul Ferrini .
