Most of us fail!
Life comes from inside.
Those of us who can live from our own hearts can enjoy loving relationships, all without conflict.
Our feelings, needs, and instincts come from within. This is also where trust and love come from. Everything good and loving comes from deep within people.
Is this life possible for all of us?
Of course.
Allow others to live from their own instincts, needs, and feelings. At the same time, insist on our own right to live from our hearts.
Life has been designed to be powered from within. All life.
When driven by our own needs, instincts, and feelings, we are kind and loving. That’s who people really are. We become nice again. Joy returns to us.
Sadly, this freedom to live from our own hearts ends whenever too many people gather together.
Those people left out of the mix refuse to recognize their own failings. What failings? It’s always the same. They don’t allow others to live from their own hearts. Then, they get left out.
In their hurt, they apply pressure to others. Hurt spreads. Cause and effect become difficult to recognize. Controlling others becomes accepted as normal. As this accelerates, everybody loses their power and lives in secret fear.
Then, most of us learn peer-pressure tactics and cause endless fights instead of respecting the inner life of another.
Peer-pressure and lack of wisdom then cause bizarre expectations. Things can get crazy, and they have. We try to control each other. For most of us, everything good and loving within us no longer gets expression.
What is therapy? It’s relearning how to live from our own hearts, and relearning how to allow others the same right.
We can each face our own problems and allow all others the right to live from their own instincts. This puts us back in nature’s good graces. Conflict then becomes impossible.
Think it over. How could conflict be possible?
Does it work? It sure does. We have all seen it. We long for it too. But, we can’t have it! Not if we remain determined to demand obedience from others.
The only way to get the very best from other people is to back off and allow them to live from their own hearts.
This is the difference between support and fighting.
Only through respect for inner life can we get the love and the support that we all secretly crave.
One of the best things that happens when we allow other life to live from its own drive concerns the children. When allowed to live from their own hearts, they can’t do enough for us. Yes, this is real!
People who live this way are already on the same page. They naturally agree with each other. There is nothing to disagree about. Needs and feelings become important, not riches. In this condition, life feels right. We get to feel good, as people should feel.
Do you miss trust? Where did it go? Just consider how foolish it would be to trust another who won’t even allow you to live from your own instincts, needs, and feelings. Our passion for controlling others is a death wish for trust! It puts us all into a downward spiral. This is what has happened to our world.
Thanks for listening.
Good luck on your journey.
Take care,
