Hi all,
I found a quote today that brought up some strong emotions in me. Wondering if anyone can relate and or has other quotes they would like to share with us! "Hurt people hurt people. That's how pain patterns get passed on, generation after generation after generation. Break the chain today. Meet anger with sympathy, contempt with compassion. cruelty with kindness. Greet grimaces with smiles. Forgive and forget about finding fault. Love is the weapon of the future. " - Yehuda Berg Thanks, HD7970ghz __________________ "stand for those who are forgotten - sacrifice for those who forget" "roller coasters not only go up and down - they also go in circles" "the point of therapy - is to get out of therapy" "don't put all your eggs - in one basket" "promote pleasure - prevent pain" "with change - comes loss" |

(ignore the lord part if you want) Lord make me an instrument of your peace Where there is hatred let me sow love Where there is injury, pardon Where there is doubt, faith Where there is despair, hope Where there is darkness, light And where there is sadness, joy O divine master grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console to be understood as to understand To be loved as to love For it is in giving that we receive it is in pardoning that we are pardoned And it's in dying that we are born to eternal life __________________ "I carried a watermelon?"

The quote is alluding to generational trauma. It is horrible to think - but people who have been treated poorly often do treat others poorly in their lives. Doesn't mean they will of course. When someone is traumatized, they can go one of two ways: they can become an empath, or a psychopath. It makes sense really.
