If your pain had a lesson it’s been trying to teach you, what do you think it would say?

My pain has been a lesson in endurance and perseverance...It taught me to find joy in the small things and to have empathy for others in pain.
Have boundaries and what you tolerate will continue...it won't win you a lot of friends but at least you won't be a doormat
@pituitarypendulum
Yea, setting boundaries is hard, but it’s an act of self love. It hurts when people don’t understand but protecting yourself is worth it. You’re teaching others how to treat you, and that matters.
@pituitarypendulum
It's the very lesson I'm still struggling at tbh. I still can't let go even if the people already let go of me.
@mindstruggle It will take time . Once you know your worth you won't tolerate less .
Let that shit go.

Vengence, saddness, anger, remorse, regret, sorrow, loss, fear, anxiety, disgust, shame, gloomyness, guilt, resentment, jealousy, nostalgia, ....all that stuff needs to be let go.

I know they are all part of some primeval defence mechanism.....but now, i don't think we need them as much as we did.

Now i think they hold us back.


Mind you, easier said than done🤷‍♀

Totally!! letting go sounds simple until you realize some of these emotions are basically stubborn houseguests. My anxiety keeps RSVP’ing to every party I try to leave.

Right? Even after all the inner work, these emotions can still grab us unexpectedly. But hey, you notice it and keep showing up for yourself already means you’re making real progress. 😌♥

That i was never meant to be loved and i need to accept that
@Lilliesandlight I can't agree. I don't even know you that well, and I can't agree. Of course you were meant to be loved.
@Lilliesandlight
This hit home. 😔

Lying on your back to move furniture with your legs will not protect your back 😬
@MellyMel22
Ah, going full back power mode. Risky, but admirable, Mel. Your back is basically the hero we didn’t know we needed. 😏

@mindstruggle Tell that to my slipped discs 😌
@MellyMel22
Okay, let me carry that damn furniture! 💪

Not every lesson is spiritual. Some are gastrointestinal.

You should eat before 8PM
And sleep more than 3 hours a night
And have some amount of water
@JRVanguard
Wow, your pain is very organized. Respek! 😎

It'd say Wtf is wrong with you
@PiecingBabyFaceTogether
It makes sense. Pain talks loud sometimes, but I hope it’s guiding you, not judging you.

Stop sinning. Apologize to God and start acting right.
