We all suffer early Hurt.

We shouldn’t, but we do! Humanity, at the moment, lacks the wisdom to allow our young to self-drive their own lives.

The result, is, of course, hurt!

Without self-drive, we live without self-esteem, feelings, or awareness of our own needs, and that loss hurts. Life or death hurt!

Other life is all self-driven. People are designed to live that way as well! It’s the only way we can remain unhurt.

What we do with that hurt is going to determine our acceptance by others, and thus our happiness.

We have suffered a terrible loss! We all do in this era.

None of this hurt though, is ever intentional!

Mankind, while brilliant, is capable of completely missing the most obvious realities, and then causing incredible damage without ever recognizing we are the cause!

Mankind, if undamaged, is the kindest, and most compassionate life on the planet!

If we are to have loving, meaningful lives, we desperately need to hang on to our most important needs, even in the face of hurt and despair!

We will all suffer damage! It’s the consequence of our world’s beliefs in these times.

We can retreat into defiance and hate if we choose. That further isolates us. We can never experience the quality of love that’s possible while in this condition. We will usually live in defiance for life.

Another option is to survive and accept the hurt. This allows acceptance, and loving contact with others, which satisfies our most critical need!

This option works best for everyone. Of course, it’s hard to swallow all that hurt without striking back.

Critical questions

Is it fair to hate those who caused us so much hurt?

Here is something to consider. If it’s not intentional, then no, perhaps it’s not fair to hate!

It’s fair of course to consider them followers, without the courage to stand alone and face life straight on. It is certainly fair to consider them weak!

Add to this another consideration! Who is our hate going to hurt?

It won’t hurt them much. They’ve already isolated themselves by ignoring real life and following the crowd. They already hurt. Our feelings are not going to add much more despair to their lives.

On the other hand, our hate is guaranteed to cripple us for life. Few ever recover from this path!

It’s a lonely, bitter existence.

The one person that our hate hurts most of all, is ourselves!

It poisons our lives!

If we are ever to recover, we face a formidable task!

We must accept every hurt we ever suffered as part of ourselves now!

It did happen, and it really is a part of our lives!

As it turns out, the act of hate is also an act of refusal to accept pain!

Unfortunately, we live with it anyway, while at the same time, we reject its very existence!

Could that cause anxiety?

Of course it does! How could it not?

Can it be fixed? Mostly! We aren’t real good at this just yet!

That’s a lot of therapy though! That’s a lot of hurt to accept!

For a good life though, this is the only path!

It’s the only way to return to the trust and acceptance that we all crave!
