Is Someone Projecting All Over You?

Projecting; is the projection of emotions that exist within an individual onto another individual as a coping mechanism.

 

This is something people do to others, mostly without meaning to. People use it as a way to avoid confronting something within themselves.  Usually feelings, they are uncomfortable with.  Unfortunately, the projector person often doesn’t announce to the rest of the world that they are projecting their own issues and insecurities onto everyone else.  Which means that often times those projector people are critical and end up hurting others.

 

Projecting

Don’t let yourself be falsely labeled by an individual. Just because they are trying to avoid dealing with their own feelings, or because they won’t own their own desires.  Projecting can happen in all sorts of ways.  There are many examples of this;

  • Parents living out their own dreams through their children.
  • Someone who is in a bad relationship telling you your relationship if floundering. 
  • It’s someone with a drug or alcohol problem who accuses anyone who tries to help them of having control issues.

Projecting

Most of the time the projector doesn’t even see their own behavior. However, that doesn’t mean the rest of us have to blindly allow someone to label us.  Just because someone labels you doesn’t make it true.

Before you take someone’s words too heavily, make sure that they aren’t projecting their deep beliefs, fears, and desires, onto you.

Projecting

Because you are made for so many great things.  So much more than just embodying someone else’s fears and problems.

    Great post! I agree with you. We know ourselves better than anyone so we shouldn’t let others define who we are as a person. We shouldn’t take someone’s words too heavily, especially if it’s not true because they might be just projecting their own fears and problems onto you.

Today would have been my beloved Audrey’s sweet 16th birthday. She crossed the rainbow bridge on 5/4/22 and my life will never be the same. She will always be the sweetest, most loyal, perfect girl.

This photo was taken on Damien’s first trip to Nashville. We went to find a waterfall that was two hours away and while there ran into a photographer. He offered to take some pictures of us, without knowing it was Damien’s birthday. He emailed them to us a day later. It’s still one of my favorite pictures. #happyvalentinesday @damien_keeter 💕

As a way to revisit all my photography from various travels, I’ve started writing stories to go with them, as well as enhancing the photos with graphic art. The stories re-envision the photograph as a passageway to another time or place.

I wrote a book! This is a novel that’s been on my mind for more than 10 years and this winter it finally became a reality. I’ve always loved writing but never thought writing a full length book was the plan, let alone something that could expand into more books! The plan is to explore this world of book publishing together as I figure out the best way to bring this story to life. I’m happy to finally be able to share it with you, even if it’s just the cover for now. It’s been a labor of joy and creativity and I hope you’ll join me as I discover this next “chapter”.
