Great essay and so relatable. It's hard to step back and remember that the people who confront me now, are not the ones I confronted before even when the patterns remain so close. I like Thich Nhat Hanh's approach of having tea with my emotions. It helps me just be still and listen.
Asha, this is gorgeous. I am passing it on to my daughters who are experiencing similar emotions around their more “challenging” brother and their own role in our family. I so appreciate this.
“Slowly, I had to figure out how to add the where to the what. “
thank you Asha, I’m going to hold this notion close to my heart ~
