Attaching new meaning
“When they attack you and you notice that you love them with all your heart, your Work is done.”
- Byron Katie
When someone you love to the ends of the world and back is mentally bashing you in the face without a good reason, you just have to know they’re hurting sooooooo badly. And each time you hear “fuck you,” it’s really “I’m in pain.”
It may be very faint but if you listen real hard, I know you’ll hear it.
Had a dream last night that my cat Georgina had jumped out my window and hurt herself on the pavement outside. (Yes, it’s true! When I was little, I actually had CATS! Look, I have visual evidence!) Back inside at my feet, she felt all soft and fluffy and snugglishious and I wanted to curl up into a big hug with her but her toenails were clawing me, ouch!
People are like that sometimes. Warm and snuggly and accidentally hurting you. They don’t mean to.
