In the fluidity of time, we meet people exchanging energy until we connect, through our need to be surrounded by significant others, with whom we will travel for a large part or until the end of the journey.
But there are also those who, at some point in their lives, our paths will temporarily cross, to continue on their separate paths.

I wonder on these occasional occasions, especially those that come with the gift of the hard lesson, what is it that brought us together in the first place?
What does it mean for us to meet people who project onto us, suspicion and distrust of connection, reflecting their difficulty in relating?
In what ways does this affect us?

There may be many different interpretations, but the dominant one will always be deeply hidden in our own narrative.
It is enough to remember that in all situations, difficult or not, there is a hidden benefit.
Anchors in relationships with others, revive the experience associated with our first caregivers.
We unconsciously create mismatched, dysfunctional relationships in order to repair this early, often traumatic experience.
Our emotion freezes, searching for the safety we have so missed. But as long as we choose to distance ourselves, we expand insecurity precisely because the solution is not to revive disconnection but to connect with ourselves.
Every day is a good day to get in touch with our own narrative and reflect on who we really need to talk to.
Every day is a good day to let our emotions out, even if we get sassy. Maybe that’s all we need to avoid re-injuring ourselves.
