As adults we are somehow expected to know how to deal with everything that life throws at us… no matter what life throws at us… and most of the time we end up winging it.
Most of the time we’re copying what we saw our parents do… even when it doesn’t bring us satisfying results or seem terribly healthy.
We do it this way… because it’s all we’ve ever known.
It’s hard to admit that what we’ve been doing isn’t working… or that what we were taught isn’t healthy.
That’s what makes admitting that we don’t know, such a brave and life-changing act.
Because when you admit that you’re in a rut and that you don’t know how to get out… you can stop.
You can stop doing what isn’t working and start looking for new and better.
You can stop following the old rules and begin to look for help in new places, from new people.
You can learn new ways of living.
