> Bingo: "There’s a big difference between fault and responsibility. We are each responsible for our lives and the choices we make. We’re responsible for our responses to the world around us. However, we are not to blame for the broken selves many of us carry. "
Well said and so important! Thanks for sharing your heart with your words and power!
I think a lot of people do...it's at the core of being able to be humble with self-love. This is what allows compassion for others because one need not defend the self from one's own self-loathing. If more people understood this, we could let down our defenses and respond with love for all of us who've been through so much, rather than hate, blame and fear of our own "stuff" that isn't ultimately ours but only ours to let go of and transform.

Thanks Lily! This is something I've had to remind myself around a lot. It's easy to mix these two up. Glad to hear it resonates with you!

Very true. It's much easier to point our hurt outward than it is to pick up the pieces of ourselves :)
Very true.
