The harsher we are with ourselves the harsher we are with others

We have to be understanding to others as no one is exactly on our page they are on their own unique page…maybe close to ours but maybe further away too. That doesn’t matter.

No ones page is right our wrong, it’s just different. We have to accept that, If we can’t accept others as they currently are we won’t be accepting of ourselves and that only leads to suffering and disconnection.

No one person will ever be exactly what we want, so we have to be compassionate or accept we’ll be alone.

We have to cherish what connects us not what separates us. We are conditioned to catch people doing something wrong not thanking them for what they do right.

We are all at different parts of our journeys and no ones is better or worse, just different.

However, if we have high expectations of others to match our rules or exacting expectations then no one will ever be good enough.

We have to be prepared to be flexible and compassionate or face the consequences of being too harsh with ourselves and others.

It’s outside

We invest so much time on apps, technology, media, digital work, and so little connecting with nature.

As humans we are the most disconnected from nature that any human being has been.

Interestingly, we have the worst mental health and we are the most addicted and discontented humans to roam the planet.

For example, we are more than 60 percent water as humans. We fully accept that the tides of the sea are caused by the energy of the moon. Perhaps, if we were more connected to the nature and less to the digital matrix we’d understand how the moon’s energy affects us.

If we ate according to the seasons we’d be healthier and so would the planet.

If we spent more time in nature simply being we’d be more conscious and have a healthier mind, body and spirit.

The answer isn’t looking into a screen…it’s outside.
