If you ever feel misunderstood, this is a helpful reminder that it can be difficult to convey the fullness of ourselves and what we really think/feel to others, and equally it can be challenging for other people to really receive and understand that too. But also… perhaps more powerfully, if you ever feel like you just “don’t get” someone else, please remember this diagram! They are a deep well of thoughts, feelings, energy, goals, dreams, aspirations, challenges and experiences… and they’re just trying to make their way in this world like the rest of us. Maybe they don’t know how to convey themselves. Maybe they aren’t able to show you or share with you what is really going on for them. Maybe they wish they could, or maybe they don’t care! But either way, it helps to remember this about human beings… we are SO much more than we are able to convey to others, and when we hold this awareness we have more compassion and tolerance. Peace!
Lots of love, Bernadette Logue
