I was a judgmental betch. ⠀
⠀
I used to criticize from my golden throne of judgement, blasting my expectations on to others on what I THOUGHT they should do, even in despair and pain. ⠀
⠀
Pretty gross. And mean. And unevolved.⠀
⠀
The thing is though, I didn’t have any perspective. I wasn’t living my life taking risks, being real and living with vulnerably. So, I never had to fall from my high horse. ⠀
⠀
It was not until life showed up and catapulted me off my high horse into the fucking pit of despair without my permission, is when things got real. ⠀
⠀
I learned grace and empathy and compassion because I finally NEEDED grace and empathy and compassion. I WAS LIVING HONESTLY AND OPENLY for the first time ever. ⠀
⠀
How dare I ever judge or criticize anyone ever again because I’ve been in my own pit struggling to get out and it wasn’t pretty. ⠀
⠀
When thinking about casting from your own golden throne, dig down deep and unpack why their situation bothers you so much and why you want them to act a certain way: does it fit a narrative that is fragile and you’re trying to protect? Does controlling someone without grace and compassion keep you from meeting your own discomfort? ⠀
⠀
Offer understanding, listening, compassion and non judgement, releasing outcomes and expectations.⠀
⠀
That’s where real vulnerability lives. ⠀
⠀
And so does the real connection. ⠀
