I reparent myself by choosing gentleness no matter the consequence at hand. It’s not easy because my brain's trained to judge, blame, punish

We live our lives doing the best we can, seeking love and acceptance, finding guidance and direction. Fear divides us.

I've felt lost most of my life. And now I reparent myself. I imagine myself as an elder, sitting in the upholstered chair in the living room

My old self would feel lost amid the rocky goings-on with fingers pointing at me if something went wrong.
