In the beginning was the word. Thoughts are words in our head. Those words are what we talk about. What we talk about finds support. These words, given support, is literally how we create our lives. In childhood, our primary lesson was to learn how to care for ourselves in adulthood. Many of the adults around us didn’t know how to care for themselves. Some were absent, some were medicated, some seemed aloof and caught up in their own troubles. And for some of us, the adults were abusive.
Then we grew up into thinking adults with thoughtful words about how to describe ourselves through our life experiences. It can be difficult to sort these things out, to put into words the memories that describe us. And so, we seek support because the life we are creating seems to be missing something. Sometimes it is just an uneasy feeling. I know.
To get to the cause of my own uneasy feeling, I chose to study psychology. Through this work, I found ways to care for myself and with support, you too can find the thoughts and words that will help you care for yourself and begin the healing process needed to create the meaningful life you are meant to live.
