1.2 Safety

Yesterday morning with

and

we went over the Safety topic and had some really good discussions on the topic. I see safety at this point in my life so much different than I have before. In going through the questions in the lesson and answering them, I saw many ways where I did not feel safe as a child and an adult. I saw many ways I have shown up in the life's of people that matter to me that I did not provide safety. It is so easy to look at safety as a physical need only when I hear that word, but it is more relatable in my life daily in the form of emotions safety. I know I have invalidated my wife in many ways with her safety due to my lack of emotional understanding. In reading through the material, it helped me better understand all the ways this shows up and changes my perspective on the meaning and my intention to see that differently now and show up with better understanding. One thing that hits me hard is Deficit, one major reason in my intention in joining this tribe is finding a sense of belonging. Much of my life I have saw a strength in a lone wolf mentality as a man, but I am quickly learning that this is a limited mindset and there is so much wholeness found in connection and strength in groups and the support that can come from that.
