Carl Jung wrote that “the greatest burden a child must bear is the unlived life of the parents,” by which he meant that where and how our caretakers were stuck in their development becomes an internal paradigm for us also to be stuck.~Robert A. Johnson

Carl Jung with a timely reminder that it comes down to you. So get to it.

[anita is in nyc @neats29]

it’s been helpful for me lately to reengage with the idea that if there’s a pattern in life that I say I don’t want but it keeps happening over and over again, then it must mean that a) there’s an unfelt emotion I’m avoiding and b) that something in me is benefiting from it…

Nobody else is responsible for your life but you.

Many people may be at fault for your pain and unhappiness. But no one else is responsible for digging you out of that pain or unhappiness.

It only takes one bad experience to potentially cause a person to develop an avoidant behavior pertaining to that bad experience. It’s simple. You tried something → you got hurt in the process → you never want to feel those things again → you avoid that thing. Until the safety that came from avoiding that thing, morphs into stunted growth in that area of your life.

Whatever we fight about in the outside world is also a battle in our inner selves. Anyone who can admit this will first seek the solution in himself, and this in fact is the way all the great solutions begin.~CG Jung, The Symbolic Life

Making myself smaller has never made anyone else bigger.

Asking someone to be smaller has never made me bigger.

Yes, it's long but if you're in need of an inspiring shot in the arm or some fire in your belly to make a long-needed change, this may be the motivation you're looking for.

I've never met someone massively successful who hasn't gone through something that nearly destroyed them.

[Lucid Dreams @sanjabh]

Blessed are those who do not fear solitude, who are not afraid of their own company, who are not always desperately looking for something to do, something to amuse themselves with, something to judge. If you are never alone, you can't know yourself.

[James Clear @JamesClear]

You can either be judged because you created something or ignored because you left your greatness inside of you. Your call.

Archetypally, to untangle something requires a descent, the following of a labyrinth down into the underworld or to the place where matters are revealed in entirely new ways.~Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women who Run with the Wolves
