To be human and to be adult means constantly to be in the grip of opposing emotions, to have daily to reconcile apparently conflicting tensions. I want this, but need that. I cherish this, but I adore its opposite too.
Stephen Fry
This is one of the first things I had fun with as a writer. I’m sitting here finally allowing myself to feel all the internal pushing and pulling. I acknowledge it regularly but it’s usually in and out of my head quickly or I’m just trying my best to refocus on my goals. After reading this, my perspective shifted from needing to control my thoughts, to accepting that all of them are a part of being human. Abraham Hicks always speaks on letting go of resistance and not pinching off the good that’s trying to come. So when I read this quote and reflected on some of my recent thoughts I felt some tension release. I felt more at ease.
What does this quote make you think about? Did it bring you any ease? Let me know in the comments.

The quote makes me think about life as a mother. You want to give the kids everything you never had as a child but you pause and wonder 🤨, am I raising them properly? Or making them overly independent?
Nice blog, thanks for sharing.
