growth adaptations and metaplasia of the soul
"An organ is in homeostasis with the physiologic stress placed on it. An increase, decrease or change in stress on an organ can result in growth adaptations." - Dr. Sattar, Pathoma- Chapter 1.
It is difficult to let go of the mistakes that I have made. It has become habitual almost, to rehash and re-imagine situations--hoping and praying for the opportunity to go back in time and do things a little differently. But honestly, honestly...like seriously, with every fiber of my moral being--I wouldn't do anything differently.
When we look back in time, we always come away with regret, frustration and anxiety about what the future has to hold. History does not always repeat itself, if we adapt to whatever it is that the universe demands of us.
There isn't much I can say to defend myself--I don't think I need to defend myself. We all have our weaknesses and being vulnerable isn't one of mine. I won't list out my weakness, and I won't list out my strengths (I think that's honestly kinda useless). But sheesh, being vulnerable is NOT a weakness.
I am not ashamed of my vulnerability. It takes a degree of vulnerability to remind yourself that you are, after all, human.
All too often we sacrifice our emotional and mental health for another person, or for society at large. All too often we live a fake life, pretending that all is good and that things will get better even if we sit around and change nothing about ourselves or the way we perceive the world around us. All too often we cope with our own insecurities by judging others, or worse, by indulging in momentary distractions.
Distractions will only get you so far---the band aid will fall off eventually, unless it's ripped off unexpectedly...and while that hurts a lot more, it's better than delaying the inevitable, don't you think?
It takes a huge huge catastrophe to re-calibrate and re-establish the homeostatic set-point for your own mental health and well being. Unless we are pushed off of our sad and sorry pedestals we won't truly grow and mature into better, and more open minded people.
