The belief that life has to be hard and difficult is the belief that makes a martyr.
We can change our negative beliefs about life. We aren't helpless. We can solve our problems. We do have power - not to change or control others, but to solve the problems that are ours to solve.
Using each problem that comes our way to "prove" that life is hard and we are helpless - this is codependency. It's the victim trap.
Life does not have to be difficult. In fact, it can be smooth. Life is good. We don't have to "awfulize" it, or ourselves. We don't have to live on the underside.
We have more power than we know.
Life is challenging. Sometimes, there's more pain than we asked for; sometimes, there's more joy than we imagined. It's all part of the package, and the package is good.
Melody Beattie

We are fragments of something whose size and shape we do not know, but as fragments of it, we are essential to its wholeness. This means that you and I have an assignment, an opportunity, a call to the light. There are dark places where love is not yet felt and known and expressed in our world, and it is our opportunity to bring the light into those places.
