“It’s change. People are afraid of change.”
As quoted in "Caroline Myss' Journey" by Terry Loncaric, at Conscious Choice (September 2003)
Context: Healing requires conscious choices… Very few alcoholics want to give up liquor. Obese people don’t want to give up food. Diabetics don’t want to give up sugar. People in toxic relationships don’t want to leave because that’s what they know. It’s change. People are afraid of change.
