Helping others become even better versions of themselves
No one needs fixing, they’re not broken, lost or ours to control.
It is not our right to interfere in other people’s life.
We are here to create and enjoy our own experiences as the consciousness of the universe. We are not here to alter or control other soul’s experiences or consciousness.
We can, of course, be a beacon of light for others to enjoy our example.
Show not tell.
We control one thing in life…our own journey.
Everything else is outside our control and any attempt to control someone or something else is a futility.
No one likes to be controlled by others and when we attempt it, it is simply manipulation.
We spend endless energy on attempting to control things that we cannot and the resulting suffering for ourselves and the people we try to control is a big part of the suffering in the world.
If we accept everything as it is, if we accept that we can only control our own life and if we let go of the expectation of doing so with something or someone and the manipulation we have to construct to do so, then peace comes within us and for the others that we are trying to control.
Events, the weather, actions of others, thoughts of others, others opinions of us, governments, banks, neighbours, partners, wife/husband/son/daughter…the list can go on and on, are not things that we can alter, so it’s best to just let it go, stop resisting it, stop fighting it and just be and let others be.
Once we get to this stage, we then have so much more energy and space within to concentrate on our own journey, happiness and growth. Our life is our responsibility and other people’s journeys are theirs.
