Many people struggle with emotional maturity. Grown women with the emotional maturity of a teenager or a grown man with the emotional maturity of a boy. Some people are just victims of circumstances and so it’ll be unfair to blame them but refusal to own up to it and heal is also a sign of Ignorance.
Pride is one of the things that keeps people in the bubble of emotional immaturity. They often reject reality and best thrive in the emotions and places that help them to avoid looking into the mirror. For example , the ‘naughty corner’ is often used as a behaviour tool help to isolate children to a safe place so they can think about their behaviour. The purpose is to reflect or think so they stay in the naughty corner for a period of time, and if they have not calmed down during the allotted time, they might have to extend their stay. When the time is up, they apologise and carry on with the rest of their day. While this measure is used for children, adults need it too.
We each have a decision to make concerning our emotional, physical and psychological well-being. Unfortunately nobody can do the healing for you. No one will do the work for you. No one can reflect on your behalf. Why do we have so many failed relationships? Because while one invests healthy emotions, they may be too demanding for the one who struggles with regulating theirs. So we find that a man is demanding a woman out of a girl because the physical says this is a grown woman but the inner man says no, I’m still a 7 year old girl,vice versa. You don’t judge emotional maturity by physical appearance.
Yes we don’t judge mental and emotional health by , beard and six pack. The work needs to be done from within. Join us on the 19th as we dive deeper into such issues. Remember , nobody can do the work for you. YOU must surely show up for YOU!
