Embrace your Catalyst
Picture this.
2 people fall in love. Honeymoon phase full of lust and hope for a bigger, brighter future, fuelled by OXYTOCIN, so no one can see the red flags.
Fast forward, 1 year later, once the rose-tinted glasses come off, you can now see things clearly for what they truly are.
In the beginning, They portrayed the best version of themselves to be considered worthy. You probably looked into their eyes and saw the love that you always wanted to give & receive.
As time passes, your partner pulls out every “trigger” and you are caught in a celestial battle between YOUR SELF & YOUR RELATIONSHIP. The triggers that have been your childhood traumas because our parents didn’t know any better.
Throw children into the mix, you have got an epic saga that draws out for another 18 years or more.
Manipulation, lies, deceit, inconsiderate behaviour & aggression ensues. Not to mention, financial disparity and cost of living stresses.
No wonder, everyone is freaking stressed out … beyond repair. And then, turn to drugs & alcohol as a way to escape reality even for a few moments …. Only to make things 10 times worse because it is NEVER the answer!!
What if everyone just took a PAUSE?
Maybe you had to break up for so many reasons but the biggest reason of them all is because YOU DID NOT KNOW THAT YOU HAD TO LOVE YOURSELF FIRST.. you thought things would get better because of the number of years that you have spent together, that there is “potential”, that change will happen if you just held on for a little while longer.. your relationship just became a gambler’s delight indulgence!
What if you could finally do what’s right for you ?? Not out of malice or revenge.
Because when you choose to do that, you will realise that a new series of “doors” & opportunities open, that seemed impossible before or you never thought of…. The right help comes along, the right job, the right friends, etc.
All because you chose YOUR SELF, your peace of mind, your happiness and most importantly, now you finally have BOUNDARIES.
What if this relationship was only to show you areas of yourself that you desperately needed to heal or change?
