He Said, She Said
We hear it in politics, at work, home, on "reality" shows, and in the news. He said, she said dramas that set off firestorms.
Be careful you are not in the middle.
Holding on to some offensive remark said to you, or ruminating over what someone said about you, is living in the past. It's over and done.
Some of us are holding onto what was said to us ten years ago or longer. Maybe it was what a parent said when you were little that hurt you. That parent may not even be alive today, but you are still holding onto the hurt.
If you want inner peace, let it go.
Refuse to keep going over in your mind what he said, or she said. And, repeating what they said to others, only spreads toxins.
If someone's words hurt you, you may need to handle it right away. Allowing yourself to stew only gets you cooked. Meet with that person as soon as possible and express your feelings to resolve the problem.
If you hold onto what he said, or she said in your mind, you are only allowing that person to have power over you.
Remember, the mind doesn't know the difference between real and imagined.
When some tragedy happens to us, scientific research has proven that the chemicals in our bodies respond the same way when we simply remember the incident.
So try to live in the present and let he said, or what she said go.
Love, Light and Blessings,
Janet and Walter
