Popular psychology has a little saying that goes like this "if you know it, you show it". The reason I am writing about this is because I know what a victim is. If I label someone to be a victim then it is said that I show this trait in my experience with others. Bottom line, I am a victim. I have bad feelings when I have things happen to me that I do not accept. My maturity level comes from my commitment to these feelings. In other words how committed am I to my poor feelings? Do I use them (poor feelings) to make others feel poorly? Do I make others feel so bad that I can make them do things for me? Do I use them to keep others away from me? I must change this way of looking at others as victims. I must see that these people that I have slapped the label of victim on as something else. How about needy? No, that's not going to work for me. How about someone that could use a hug? What if I remove the labels and start seeing everyone with some great potential and in need of a great big hug. That works for me!
I will keep adding pictures of Arielle's development as she becomes older and as we grow together to know each other as indeviduals and spirits to be honored. Check Archives to see all pictures from the beginning.
