I often run into these weird situations where I wonder if it is just my life or if it normal for everyone else's life too. I blame myself for things that really have nothing to do with me at all. Or more to be real - things that feel more like they are a plot out of a movie than anything that may happen in real life.
I have this awful propensity to blame myself for anything that happens that is weird. I think that somehow I have brought it on - or that I am the reason that something has been said or done. But after talking to a great friend (who is also a licensed counselor) - she reminded me that I am not the person to blame for weird things that happen. That many times it is all about the other person - their personal action/reaction/desires...
But then it made me question. How much am I blaming myself just for being me? For having a certain thought or reaction to something that really doesn't have anything to do with me? Indeed life is weird - how we learn what we are supposed to think, believe or feel.
I know that I feel the way I feel. I don't need to apologize for it. I think what I think. As long as I have real reasons for thinking that - and am willing to at least HEAR the other side - I do not need to apologize for it. If I believe good will happen it will. Mostly because I believe that the things that happen are indeed good. believe, think, feel. I am who I am.
