Storming, Meditation and Acknowledgement

I get annoyed when I face the same issues over and over and over again, maybe in a different form, or a different human being, and I think why is this coming up again? I have done the work. I have done HARD work. I am vigilant about making sure I don't get stuck in one place. That I grow. That I learn. That I let go. That I encourage BETTER within me.  And I was talking to a friend about this a couple of years ago. I was blown away by what she said.

I am always in my head and I was talking to her about some painful memories and how sick I was of dealing with this shit every few years. She was SO wise! She told me her theory, that every time we see the issue again, we are seeing it from another angle, we see more of the lesson we learned, a deeper meaning, a deeper healing. That was an AH-HA moment for me. It made sense and it resonated with me.

I am just seeing these things at another angle...

As for my grief...I saw this and it resonated.

I sure hope I have learned something from every go around with the same problem. So yes I know what you mean about getting tired of it. Me too.

Thanks for sharing this.

I love both the sayings you used here. Your friend had some wise words. We I repeated go through the same shit, I often wonder what did I miss that I didn't learn the first few times. I never considered that I might be seeing it from a different angle.
Food for thought for sure! Thank you for sharing it.

Wise and it makes a lot of sense. I wonder if healing is like learning and kind of a spiral that revisits and grows/moves on a little each time?

I am so glad this is resonating with others, I think it is exactly what we go through. Glad I am not alone.
It was SUCH and AH-HA moment when she told me that...and sharing it, makes me feel even better that others "get it!"
Thank you for leaving comments!!!

I did a million years of 'head' work before the body work began, and whoa. There is still so much in there. I definitely hear you on the 'why this again' thing. I have to remind myself that healing happens in layers. *sigh*
