Billy Ray ChitwoodI ate some emotional soup in my childhood and have spent a lifetime trying to digest it.
About This Quote
When you eat emotional soup, it will always be with you. If you grow up in an environment where people are constantly having fights, there is no way of escaping it. When you are exposed to emotions that are too strong for you, again and again, it will affect you for your whole life. You can never escape your emotions because they are embedded into your subconscious. Your mind keeps on remembering the painful situations involved in your past.
