COLLATERAL DAMAGE
Sometimes it’s not just the people in the immediate relationship that are affected by the decisions that we make or that get made.
Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about collateral damage and how the choices we make can affect those around us in sometimes not so great ways.
Picture dropping a pebble into a lake, and watching those little water ripples go out further, getting bigger, eventually enveloping all the surrounding water in their wake.
Sometimes our personal choices do something similar, they envelope our partners, our kids, our extended family, shared friends and even our fur babies.
Things can get messy — because the human experience is complicated and sometimes there are unintended negative consequences to our choices.
This is not to say we can never resolve these situations - but we do have to consider the question: will the repair make sense, be kind or compassionate to those affected and are we willing to take it all the way in holding responsibility for our actions and choices?
While holding onto the possibility that fixing it, explaining ourselves or repairing the damage is not always possible and finding a way to be okay with that or coming to a place of acceptance.
Our actions can create positive ripples just as easily as they can unintended waves; it is what we do on the other side of each that makes a difference in the end.
