Why do we need other people?

We’re not meant to walk this journey alone, to be separate, to be always with ourselves and never be with others.

As humans we need the energy of other human souls, we need to be connected with their energy.

It does not mean that we have to be constantly surrounded by people, however, long periods of time without interaction is as bad as being always with people.

Like everything in life, it is a balance and there is the Yin and Yang to all things.

When we simply be with others, without any agenda, without seeking something, simply being in their presence and listening to them and learning from them, sharing stories, making each other laugh, bringing joy to one another, then we not only enrich ourselves but others too. We create something even better.

The more we find what brings us together and what we have in common, rather than what we believe in our minds will separate us, the more we create a stronger connection among us all and the more we grow in a positive way as humans.

Find other souls and enrich them and ourselves…don’t be always alone.

filling in the gaps

When the mind does not have all the answers about something or someone it fills in the gaps.

It doesn’t fill the gaps in with positive stuff, it fills it in with the worst-case.

We then act on those made-up stories towards others and react based on that fiction.

Then the reaction we get back from others only provides the mind with more fuel for these stories will tell ourselves about the world and other people.

Instead of filling in the blanks, we can ask and become curious, we can go and seek to understand other people. We can choose to listen first and to listen without evaluation so that we actually truly see people as they are and not as we believe them to be.

Don’t filling the blanks, instead listen, be curious and find out the true story.
