Choices

You’re not going to always know if you’re making a conscious choice or you’re repeating an old pattern to protect yourself from feeling hurt – an irrational fear placed in a hypothetical future. It’s probably easier to hold your guards up. It’s probably easier to break your own heart until you learn that you are your main source of pain, not anyone else. Highly sensitive people hurt the most, but they also dream the most and and care the most and experience life more intensely. I think it’s important to not apologize for your choices, but to recognize their reason. The world is an immensely kind place, and the answers you’re looking for never lie in the past. As long as you focus your attention on gaining awareness, there’s a lesson to be learned.
