\nWhat would happen if we could see that the many 'young parts' of ourselves, with their fears and worries, with their plans and advice, are doing their best to take care of us - even if the information they have is partial and, sometimes, applies only to a much earlier time in our lives. Could we come at them with kindness, appreciation and welcome instead of trying to dominate and suppress them? Could we bring them the gifts of the deeper patience and spaciousness that we are so that we can benefit from their presence rather than being gripped by them? And could we extend the same kindness to others?
