This too will pass...

Sometimes the feelings that come up to the surface are burning like hell, and sometimes cold like drowning in a swamp at night. (Even though drawing in a swamp in broad daylight is probably not much of a treat)


This too will pass...


If karma is a reality, maybe all that was well deserved after all?


Shame is far worse than fear. Without shame, fear would be just a difficulty to deal with. With shame, fear becomes unmanageable.


This too will pass....


Shame is worse than guilt, With guilt we can somehow find ways to pay our debt, but shame doesn't work like an overdraft on a bank account. Shame is a hot iron mark.


This too will pass....


Life is fragile. Live is vulnerable. Life too will pass.


Human beings have invented all kinds of tortures for themselves, since the world is world. Shame and guilt are like though weeds - terrible invaders with long long roots and flowers of pride.


Life is not a spontaneous hero.


Who taught us fear for the first time? The wholly mammoth? That's quite understandable...


This too will pass...


During World War 1 people had not given the name of "Shell shock" to a certain state. Those who were affected were considered cowards - and they thought of themselves as "cowards" because there was not other way to understand being overwhelmed by fear...


During World War 2 they invented the expression "Shell Shock"


Nowadays, we even acknowledge the existence of "Post Traumatic Stress Disorder" and that's a good antidote to shame to see it like that.... if you can.


Everything will pass.


Life if fragile and the effects of all unhealed traumas are passed down through generations...


This too will pass...
