“As I forgave myself, I began to trust myself. I found that when we don’t trust life or other people, it’s really because we don’t trust ourselves. We don’t trust our Higher Selves to take care of us in all situations, so we say, “I’ll never fall in love again because I don’t want to get hurt,” or “I’ll never let this happen again.” What we are really saying to ourselves is, “I don’t trust you enough to take good care of me, so I’m going to stay away from everything.”
