Accepting my contradictions

Send us Fan MailContradicting myself and my emotions simultaneously feels uncomfortable. Somewhere along the line I convinced myself I could only feel one way about a situation or even my identity, and if any other emotions arises that contradicted my first emotion, somehow I was being inauthentic. I'm learning that's not so true and this episode was an emotional one for me because I'm trying to leave space for all my feelings but that doesn't come without some guilt tied to it. I'm becoming accepting of the fact that a healed wound can still be painful and it doesn't mean the healing process starts over.
