The hardest thing for any of us to do is to have compassion for ourselves. As children we felt responsible for the things that happened to us. We blamed ourselves for the things that were done to us and for the deprivations we suffered. There is nothing more powerful in this transformational process than being able to go back to that child who still exists within us and say, "It wasn't your fault. You didn't do anything wrong, you were just a little kid.""
"As long as we are judging and shaming ourselves we are giving power to the disease. We are feeding the monster that is devouring us
.
We need to take responsibility without taking the blame. We need to own and honor the feelings without being a victim of them.
