Emotional Healing Quotes

~ Anthon St. Maarten

When I'm triggered, I think, This will last forever or What if this lasts forever? I get thoughts about how I should give up, run away, hide, protect myself. These thoughts, I cannot change. What I can change is how I respond to them. Will I unconditionally believe these ideas, or will I accept them as side effects of the temporary experience of pain? Will I act on each thought that arises in the burning fire, or will I hold myself gently and say, It'll be okay. I know it hurts. I love you? My power lies in these choices.
