this helped me

It’s weird what I get up to mentally in times when I am alone that are a response to my being alone and worrying about my own insecure sense of worth and safety. I realize everyone is insecure to a certain extent and sometimes that can manifest with fighting ourselves or others. I’m realizing we all have something. Again I so appreciate you being there.

knowing everybody has something to fight with themselves over offers me the consolation of knowing i am not alone, but it only distracts me from the bewildering mission of finding my own inner peace. that inner peace is strictly personal.

think global
act local
keep it personal

You do not feel a sense of compassion and understanding knowing that we’re all fighting something and that alongside of your own stuff others have their stuff? For me it helps me deal with incoming stuff and then also my response to my own stuff.

great translation, grasshopper.

keeping it personal helps both locally and globally. i can be more compassionate of both others and myself when i let each of us be unique.
