Crazy People Make Us Crazy – Day 4

May 25, 2017


Anger, fear, sadness, betrayal—a lot of emotions can run through us when we stop trying to change the other person and start focusing on taking care of ourselves. The good news is that we’re finally feeling our own feelings instead of trying to figure out what the other person feels.

Maybe all those feelings we’ve been avoiding aren’t the opposite of love. Those feelings could be an important step on the path to love.

Inventory Focus: Is there a relationship in your life right now that’s bugging you? Are you willing to explore detachment as a means to improving the relationship and regaining your peace?

From the book: 52 Weeks of Conscious Contact
