There is a saying...
"You can't fight fire with fire."
But do you know what I learned after 28 years of dealing with a narcissist?
You CAN fight fire with fire... but there's only one way...
...a firebreak; strategically removing the fuel a fire needs to burn.
It stops fire in its tracks. And keeps you protected at the same time.
I know we all have a lot of fire in us from what's going on. And that fire is understandable. It comes from pain, injustice, fear, and love for the people we’re trying to protect.
Just be mindful of how you're using your fire. You can either use it to add to the flames... or use it to remove their fuel and protect yourself and those you love.
I may not be able to march right now but I'll tell you this for sure... I'm creating one hell of a fire break... one book at a time.
Empowering kids and adults to protect their peace.
Reminding parents and families that taking care of YOU first isn't selfish... it's vital.
And teaching people of all ages that boundaries are important... so important... that if you've got to scorch the earth around you to keep those who only carry fire with them from getting in... so be it.
I'm igniting the passion of self love in the hearts and souls of a quiet army.
So if the fire in your belly is burning so fiercely that you feel you must do something... use it wisely.
Use it to destroy their fuel: anger, chaos, division.
You'll soon discover that when doing it this way... your fire becomes love. And that's something no one can destroy.
