QUESTIONS FOR SELF REFLECTION:

How much do you feel connected to others? Do you smile at people as you walk by?
What relationships in your life require healing?
Have you allowed yourself to be controlled by the wounds of another? Will you let that happen again?
What is your understanding of forgiveness?
What fears do you have about being emotionally healthy?
When was the last time you truly felt that “spark” or a deep connection with someone? Look back at the time and see if you can find the special things about that person or situation that made you feel that way.
- Do you judge others? Or are you compassionate? Do you accept others for who they are?
