A sense of vulnerability to other’s unfair opinions on my blog, makes me sensitive today. Judging self, shouldn’t really do so. Being able to understand workings of my silly inner critic made me feel less exposed, help react positively to negative comments.
Genuinely asked self if their words reminded me of something I experienced in the past, not related to present experiences. Emotional triggers are great to re-evaluate things, gives power to control reactions, feel energetically inclined to learn, grow.
Seeing how our past relates to ways in which we interact in the present, is a powerful way to heal self-critical voices. Once we recognise our vulnerability has more to do with history, we understand reacting positively, differently in the now can alter, improve, restore, change things that happened in our past. Nothing isn’t irreversible.
Rather than feel sensitive, transform selves with a greater sense of hope, faith, passion, empowerment. Reflecting on what sparked feelings of judgment enabled me to cultivate healthier, compassionate interactions with others. Cognisant of how to phrase things in a way that shows other’s kindness, consideration. Let go of my ego, pride to stay humble.
