You needlessly create problems and crises in your life because you’re afraid of actually living it. The pattern of unnecessarily creating crises in your life is actually an avoidance technique. It distracts you from actually having to be

“When a wound doesn’t mend on its own, one of two things will happen: it can either remain raw or, more commonly, be replaced by a thick layer of scar tissue. As an open sore, it is an ongoing source of pain in a place where we can be hurt over and over again by even the slightest stimulus. It compels us to be ever vigilant - always nursing our wounds, as it were - and leaves us limited in our capacity to move flexibly and act confidently lest we be harmed again. The scar is preferable, providing protection, and holding tissues together, but it has its drawbacks: it is tight, hard, inflexible, unable to grow, a zone of numbness. The original healthy, alive flash, is not regenerated.”

“I think I am the kind of person
that people fall in love with
too quickly
And I dont mean to complain
because it is wonderful to be loved
but I am also the kind of person
that people walk way from
when they realize
the beautiful pool of water
that they wandered into
is actually an ocean
with too many questions
I wish my company
didnt make people feel
like theyre drowning
mystery draws them in
then mystery makes them leave”

“I have a bad habbit
of clinging to the people and places
that have been hurting me
today I asked myself to explain why
because sometimes
it doesn't make sense to me either
this is the conclusion I have come to
I stay because although im treated poorly
I find comfort in the surety
of knowing exactly what I'm getting
moving on is a commitment to uncertainty
and things could always be worse
on the other side of a big jump
I have never been good with risk
I don't like to gamble
I like control”

“It is never selfish to take care of your heart, if you need to move, then move.
If you need to stay, then stay.
Don't let anyone else dictate where your peace lands.”
