Healing is not quick nor easy. No matter what the wellness industry packages and sells it as. It’s deep, committed, often painful work. Nothing in nature is instantaneous and we are part of nature too. We spend years and years running away into distractions or our heads or addictions before we bang into the wall where the only option is to stop and turn around. Coming back to the Self takes time, patience, love, rewards, detours and pit stops on the way.

So don’t despair when it feels tiring or pointless. When a detour makes you feel all is lost.

Know that the process has its own dynamics. Bow to the process and be present to your exhaustion and frustration. Remember the rewards you have already received. Take a deep breath. You can’t see what’s around the next turn. Someone/something else does. You know THIS.

Do you love Me? Alice asked.
No, I don't love you! replied the White Rabbit.
Alice frowned and clasped her hands together as she did whenever she felt hurt.
See? replied the White Rabbit.
Now you're going to start asking yourself what makes you so imperfect and what did you do wrong so that I can't love you at least a little.
You know, that's why I can't love you.
You will not always be loved Alice, there will be days when others will be tired and bored with life, will have their heads in the clouds, and will hurt you.
Because people are like that, they somehow always end up hurting each other's feelings, whether through carelessness, misunderstanding, or conflicts with themselves.
If you don't love yourself, at least a little, if you don't create an armor of self-love and happiness around your heart, the feeble annoyances caused by others will become lethal and will destroy you.

The first time I saw you I made a pact with myself: "I will avoid loving you until you learn to love yourself."

“Sometimes instinct is of the nature of the ‘all or nothing’ reaction, and consciousness has to interfere by adapting to a normal (moderated) use of instinct.”
[..]
“Very aggressive people generally knock their own heads against a wall. They get hit over the head by parents and teachers and so learn repression. Then they experience the destructive nature of aggression and so repress it, but later, analysis shows that they should somehow liberate it again. Such people also do not know how to hit back; they confess that if they hit back they go too far, so they prefer to do nothing, and then naturally they become the underdog and build up resentment since they are living below their own level, or they develop persecution ideas.”
