Tell Your Story When It’s Hard to Bear
Tell your story today to someone new. It is amazing how when you tell your story, it can heal. Have you ever wondered how to tell your story? Many groups engage in some storytelling. This makes telling your story a desire. Stories will help celebrate history. They can memorialize a significant event for centuries. When a memory doesn’t yield much merriment, but what happens? When it is a difficult one, how can a person tell her or his story?
Here are a few suggestions on how best to tell your story when it is tough to bear.
Tell your story, but first decide what it Means to Tell.
You have to decide what it means to tell your story. This response won’t be the same for everyone. For many, telling their story might involve disclosing to a loved one. For others, it might mean publishing a book. And for others, sharing their story could be more personal. It may involve journal entries tucked away.
Stay away from sharing your story. Do not rush yourself to communicate more than you are ready to say.
Tell with Self-Compassion
Whether you decide to lock away your stories or spread them to the world, do this with self-compassion. The Latin root for fire is suffering. They suffer from someone else when a man or woman is compassionate. When you are self-compassionate, you suffer with yourself. You show yourself empathy. Try to put yourself in your shoes. How were you feeling then and how can you respond to yourself now?
Exercise Patience
Challenging that is telling stories to involve reliving past hurts. Take breaks. Do not force yourself speak or to write when it is taking a toll on you. This is not you tell your story. Forcing yourself to push through the process can affect your mood, health, and even your relationships. Pace yourself.
If you see that your shoulders tense up as you write, you can restrict yourself and then complete a routine that is stretching. Or you can create another system for yourself. The idea is to make necessary accommodations so that the process doesn’t frustrate you.
Practice Self-Love
Regardless of what happened, you are alive to tell. Try not to wallow in regret or despair – even if you might have been the cause of your story that is tough. It’s unlikely that you will make the same choices so love the person and empathize with the person you were then you are now. You will have more stories to tell as you grow wiser and older.
Tell your story through a time capsule.
Tell your story by saving nostalgic and sentimental items in a time capsule. Make a personalized time capsule with your own decorations. Use artwork, scrapbook type background, and photos to decorate the outside of a time capsule tin. Learn more abut how to make a time capsule here.
Conclusion
You’re in control of how to tell your story. Work at your own pace. With whom you would like share as much or as little as you would like. Allow your “new self” to suffer from your “old self.” Record your memories with breaks that are necessary, or while switching with stress-relieving activities. And you decide to tell your story, make sure to celebrate its completion.
So, what would you save in a time capsule? Comment below.
