Taking Your Power Requires This

Premasudha tells a humorous story, laden with pathos, about how her mom avoided taking her own power. (Premasudha was very fond of her mom, but also learned a lot about - what not to do - from her mom's example.)

Basically, self-pity or resentment-fuelled storylines stop us from taking our power. It can take patience and willingness to face our fear, to become free of our emotional prisons, but it is SO WORTH IT!

We also become deeply wise people as a by-product! This is how the world becomes a better place to be.

Oh my goodness yes. Fear does block freedom. In my life the resentment that raises from fear of my own power and authenticity is very stealthy and can ruin relationships. Thanks to you and your mom for this practical lesson!
Love and blessings to you Premasutha

I’m constantly in this cycle of fear, self pity and then depression sets in. My mom suffers from anxiety and dementia and boy oh boy I see the bitterness of that resentment come out more than I would like to see. It’s very hard to see this. Most times I don’t know what to do. But hearing this helps me to hang on to hope. Thank you for the advice.
