Did you grow up with platitudes that don’t seem to work in everyday life? Can you recognize them as you scroll through Facebook?
A platitude is a statement, usually with a moral message, that is used so frequently that it loses it’s true meaning.
Even though my family was part of a positive spiritual community, I still grew up with several platitudes that I eventually had to unlearn.
Anytime we receive advice from others, or see an inspiring message on social media, we need to still run it through our intuition: Is this right for me? Will it help me resolve and move forward from my present circumstance?
What platitudes have you evaluated and found to work only in certain circumstances?
Thanks for watching!
