Our greatest joy, by far, is warm, comfortable, loving relationships.

If, for even one moment, could we be absolutely and completely honest? What would our most important wish be?

More important than anything else could ever be? The one most important thing?

Getting to the roots of things does take some soul-searching, doesn’t it?

If we work hard and long enough, every one of us is going to arrive at the very same answer.

What answer?

Relationships. Companions! Safe, loving, and trustworthy companions. An environment where we can be our complete and real selves

People who don’t criticize. People we can share our deepest secrets with. People who share their own deepest truths with us. This is heaven to any human.

We all lead different lives. Side by side, we all live in different worlds.

For some of us, perhaps even most of us, our relationships are more like stand-offs than the loving comfort that is the real norm for humans.

What has caused this catastrophic loss?

Exposed to our present environment, the vast majority of us carry beliefs that make loving relationships impossible!

The result?

We conceal much, or most of what we feel. Doing this, we are holding back from being fully alive.

We all know our lives aren’t as they should be.

Sorting out why, though, is almost impossible. Even if we get that far, the return to normal will be equally difficult.

It does seem hopeless.

On the other hand, there’s nothing in this world more important than our return to life, the way it should be.

Our damaging beliefs all share a common theme.

Interference and control.

All life comes from within. When allowed to live from our own hearts, nature guides our lives in sustainable ways. This happens through instincts, feelings, and our own needs.

All life powers itself. Its only need is support and encouragement. Life doesn’t need guidance.

There is no guidance anywhere or anyplace that is wiser than our own instincts, feelings, and needs. Evolution has already provided the ultimate wisdom for us humans. It resides within us.

Any human who is wise enough to support and encourage their offspring wins the lottery. They get the strongest, most capable, and loving children, anywhere.

This is fully supported by observation.

The more freedom any child receives, the kinder and more loving they turn out. The more they are directed early in life, the more therapy they need. This therapy, by the way, always takes them back to childhood issues.

A life cannot obey two masters. Life is powered from within. Throughout the planet, all life finds its own way.

That’s what life is!

Life is powered from within!

When supported and encouraged without directions, people live fully out loud. Their energy will always be right off the charts.

What we have become used to is pathetic in comparison.

Humans are naturally loving. They are probably the most loving creatures on the planet. All our pain and suffering are coming from only one place. What place? Our interference. Our guidance, no matter how good our intentions, is missing the most important qualities of other life. Its needs.

Life is powered from within. It requires only support and encouragement. These will provide the maximum health and power. Life comes with its own moral code, but only if it’s allowed to live from within.

Every child is different. We are all unique. We need the freedom to live out loud and live as who we are.

Our peer-pressure environment has caused issues for our children. They are becoming increasingly unaware of who they are. Most recently, our overreach has become so pervasive that our children often don’t even recognize what sex they are.

Yes, we are back where we started.

But now we have the answer. For us humans, loving relationships are natural. We don’t have to do anything. All of our relationships will be loving.

We will also enjoy the best health possible for our unique bodies. We will be without anxiety. Anxiety is not a natural condition. It takes a lot to be wrong to cause the kind of anxiety we all live with right now. Nature would never create life with natural anxiety. Something has to be seriously wrong for anxiety to appear.

People are lonely. That’s right. Most people are lonely.

Surrounded by people, but lonely.

There is a good word for our condition. Crazy. We make each other crazy. We are all hurting and lonely.

We overpower our children, who already have their own guidance and power.

For them, it becomes a long, agonizing journey back to living from their own hearts and identity. Most don’t even try.

Life comes from within. The power of life comes from inside. We need to enjoy our own lives and allow others to live from their own energy and hearts.

In doing this, there is no such thing as conflict. How could there be? Nobody is forcing anybody to be anything but who they already are.

Ironically, providing support and encouragement while allowing our young to find their own way is infinitely easier than what we do now. They do all the work. While they can’t tell us, that’s all they ever wanted in the first place. They already live with the power and the energy. They only want a safe place to develop. Don’t believe it? Try it. Just watch them light up. It’s a real eye-opener.

As to cooperation, that’s natural too. Living from within, and aware of our own feelings, we know how much we need others. We would never jeopardize our own happiness by interfering with that comfort.

Well, like it or not, that’s the situation. Good luck with your efforts to survive this environment.

Thanks for listening.

Good luck with your own journey.

Take care,
