If the same stuff keeps showing up in our lives, the stuff that makes us suffer, at some point we have to realize that we’re asking for it to show up. How are we doing that? By dipping into the same well of dysfunction that created the suffering in the first place.
Here’s the thing. If we don’t become consciously aware of our family of origin dysfunction, it -- that dysfunction, will continue to make the decisions for us. THE DYSFUNCTION WILL MAKE THE DECISIONS FOR US.
It is the suffering that was paid forward by our parents who received suffering from their parents and so on down our family tree. It is not about laying blame. That doesn’t serve anyone. But it is about us taking responsibility for refusing to accept that suffering in our lives any longer. It’s about stopping that cycle with us. The only way to stop it is to understand what you’re dealing with in the first place. It’s the only way we’ll be able to steer our decisions in a healthy direction.
