Relationships Activate Past WoundsOur most intimate relationships have a way of activating our past wounds and bringing to light the areas we need to work on. Know that while relationships can be messy they can still be worth the price of admission. Our internal and relational work never ends but is well worth the investment to live life more fully. Our most intimate relationships stir up past wounds, insecurities and fears of loss for us all. Relationships are where we are injured but also where we heal and grow. We have competing desires for security and stability versus adventure and passion. We have disparate needs for togetherness and closeness versus autonomy and independence. Our first relationships in life leave a strong imprint on all future relationships that's challenging to unpack and do differently. Despite our best efforts and amount of love, relationships end. All relationships take consistent work to flourish. Our investment in relationship is also an investment in ourselves. It's okay to struggle in relationships and still benefit from them.
Know you're not alone.
