Today I am grateful for the power to protect myself by meeting aggression with an equal and opposite energy. It doesn’t come easy for me. But I do understand that it is a good practice. It leaves me feeling numb. And full of regret that it happened. I want things to be easier and outcomes better. I want someone to protect me I guess so that I can have more positivity. But I’m a grown up. And not protecting myself has been a big part of my struggle. The fact that I have been manipulated irks me still.

I’m growing seeds of dignity and self care. I’m pulling up the weeds that make compassion for others come first.
