Life coaching

Are we suppressing our emotions?  We do this regularly starting consciously not wanting to hurt another person and later on it becomes an unconscious habit. We keep consoling ourselves "It's ok, they don't mean to hurt me and they are just venting." or "They are just angry and they will realise what they said was wrong." Are we convincing ourselves and giving reasons for why someone can treat us badly? Sometimes we think that we are protecting them. Are we protecting them or enabling them to continue to do what they do to us? If someone else is important, aren't you as important too? The moment someone says something hurting, our minds register it. However, we don't want to believe that they would hurt us. We don't want to believe that they are pushing us away. We don't want to believe they are self-preserving.  Shouldn't we preserve ourselves more? Shouldn't we treat ourselves better? Are we not worth it? Are
