befriending

Befriending your triggers

What if we would change our perspective on triggers? What if they are actually there to teach us something we need to know? What if it's a really good thing they don't go away until we've learned what we need to learn? 

That colleague that always trigger you to get so annoyed. The family member that always knows how to push your buttons. Those kinds of people that just pisses you off. Everyone is your teacher. 

That situation that you always find yourself in, that just gets you so upset. Those circumstances that seems to be yours for life, that you just want to get out of. That place that just makes you feel uncomfortable. Every situation offers something new to learn. 

Embrace your triggers. Look at them with curiosity. Thank them for catching your attention. Then ask yourself; what do I need to learn here that I haven't yet figured out? 

With all my love,
