one of the most profound things i read today reminded me to stop taking on the work of healing wounds i didn’t cause. in honor of self preservation and boundaries, it’s been important for me, as of late, to allow myself space from people, places, and events that feel burdensome or pull out the “fixer” in me. it’s not fair to my energy, or to their personal journey.⁣ ⁣ today i’m also reminded to give grace to those who might not possess the same spiritual and mental armor i do to achieve clarity, compassion, and understanding. some people are very much a product of this world in that they respond solely with defensive tactics, malice, or anything that allows them to deny being accountable and prevents them from encountering their own enlightenment.⁣ ⁣ i have to remember that everyone’s battle is not mine to fight. not everyone’s burden is mine to carry. i can, however, lovingly grant them the space and grace in what they choose to arrive at on their own. ⁣ ⁣ with work and living demands at an all-time high, i have to keep this reminder at the forefront of my mind.
