Now be with me here. I’m about to offer information that might seem a bit out there. Yes, you can
    delete the whole notion however I encourage you to ponder it.

    Bring to mind something that pushes your buttons. These emotions (feelings) are evidence that  
    you have healing to do. Interesting thing about this, many of us will continue to have our buttons
    pushed and blame the other party. While busy blaming, we might be defensive and maybe argue
    our point. Arguing and being defensive are mechanisms to keep the wound within protected.

    While the ego is doing a great job protecting our wounds – having us believe that no one would
    understand, we aren’t enough, coupled with  all of the other things we believe to be wrong with us  
    – the ego  snowballs our thoughts.

    Your wounds own you. As you look through the lens of life with your wounds owning you, this  
    energy attracts more of the same life experiences to you. The energy of your wound(s) robs you    
    of enjoying your life. Might you say, it’s not a big deal – I reply: it all adds up.

    What we resist persists. These button pushing experiences are like puss oozing from an inflamed
    wound – we can ignore the puss, put a band-aid over it and it gets worse or we can take the
    appropriate measures to clean it thoroughly and allow it to heal.

    Take a moment and list 5 things that push your buttons. Notice how ‘hot’ they are. Select the hottest
    and start writing everything you know about  it, don’t give any time to thinking about it, just write!
    Forget about penmanship and punctuation, just write and write. Through this writing you’ll find the
    source of what activates your button.
