OUR POWER:

~

Some of us have a person or persons in our life who challenges our
ability to trust and care for ourselves.

Do we give up our power to that person? The child in us can get
hooked with a mixture of feelings – love, fear, or anger. We may
feel trapped, helpless, or so attracted that we can't think straight.
There may be a powerful tug-of-war going between feelings of
anger and our need to be loved and accepted.

We can start getting our power back by becoming aware of the
people who hook us, and then accepting that.

We can force ourselves through the motions of reacting
differently to that person, even if that new reaction is awkward
and uncomfortable.

Search out our motivations. Are we somehow trying to control or
influence the other person?

We can learn to own our power to take care of ourselves, to be
who we are free from their influence. We can learn to own our
power with difficult people. It may not happen overnight, but we
can begin, today, to change our self-defeating reactions to the
people who have hooked us.
