This week I have had several old stories appear in my life. Both from family relatives bringing up 2 giant drama stories in to my life. As both of them faced me I was aware that I am not even the same person that was there during these events.
How have I changed? Mainly by not being in a place to allow these stories to draw me in so much. Not allowing them to place me up on stage to protect and play in the drama.
I handles each of these with wisdom. I spoke direct said what I could do and why I could help or not help. It was just pure facts. One of the family members I told to take the story and put it aside and work with the main issue at hand. Where we found little resolution but I was able to speak direct and true of what was there and what I could help with. Which was not much.
Do we need to fix, make better and help? Or do we use these events to really hone in on who we are , how we have grown.
I have leaned a lot from these encounters. Mainly who I am now and how I have changed
