When Things Fall Apart, Giving Up Is Not An Option...

There are times in our life when we feel like we can no longer hang on, when we feel like all hope is lost, when we have to face our demons and experiences head on, when we want nothing more than to be saved from being who we are and the circumstances we are experiencing, we want to escape this life and we look for any way possible to do this. 

“Most of us do not take these situations as teachings. We automatically hate them. We run like crazy. We use all kinds of ways to escape -- all addictions stem from this moment when we meet our edge and we just can't stand it. We feel we have to soften it, pad it with something.” Pema Chödrön

Tonight we will be discussing Pema Chodron's book When Things Fall Apart, as well as learning about ourselves and how we react to adversity, vulnerablitly, we will learn how to accept who we are and not have always look for something outside of ourselves. 

I look forward to hearing your thoughts...
