When it comes to fixing others, we can have strong instinctual feelings that we need to help and ultimately fix the broken places in others. But we have to realize that we can’t fix others and it is not our place. We can help guide, and help direct if we are invited into that healing process, but it is not our place to step in without being inviting, even if we see reason to do so.
Everyone’s healing is their own journey. The best way to start helping others is to pour positivity into our children. We say that our children are our first priority, and we provide for them, but pouring into our children involves more than just providing for them. Are they heard? Are they being shown attention, and are we giving our time to them. This is the biggest thing we can do in order to prevent them growing up and being broken.
