The Ringtone

Sometimes we are damaged by people we know, trust, and love. This damage shocks us and sends us into a state of emotional numbness for a while. We trap ourselves in a constant inner fight to believe the reality of the damage. We blame ourselves. We get shocked and unwantedly disappointed. We question our self-worth. We review what has happened in our mind and look for an excuse to change the whole perception. We enrage, hold grudges, and we plot our revenge. This bitter fight will never end unless we change the purpose of the fight to find our true selves. We can either give in and play the victim or get on the journey to become strong and unfold our real value. The journey is there; grab your tools and go for the breakthrough.
