We all have high self-esteem to start out with!
We also live directly from our inner world.
Some of us, more than others, get forced to be what others tell us to be.
Life is always meant to come from within though!
Once we accept obedience, we will never again live from within, or have perfect self-esteem!
When we let go of our inner lives, and allow ourselves to become obedient, our inner world gets left behind!
Obedience is unnecessary and destructive. Humans living from their inner world are in contact with their needs, and are always cooperative, kind, and gentle. Competent and very strong as well!
The out of control kids we encounter could not be that way unless they have left their inner world behind. They can no longer feel their own needs. In this condition they are capable of anything, atrocities included!
As kids, we may comply with the control placed on us, but only after much resistance, inner pain, and plenty of pressure, which often becomes punishment, which can be severe!
Life is designed to fend for itself! No infant wants to be guided!
Authorities like to guide the young. They do it through mostly wishful thinking. Everybody has a different vision of what will produce a perfect child! None of these ideas can ever compare with the compassion, power, and excitement of our own original inner world!
The problem is the identity of every child is unique. It has instincts, which are the hard fought wisdom of countless generations of evolution. In addition to that, our inner life can feel its own needs.
Once another person forces us to be obedient, and therefore pushes us our of our inner world, we lose all of these things.
That’s why everybody needs therapy now, and that takes us to childhood issues. Life is not designed to be obedient. It’s designed to survive under its own power, and enjoy doing it!
Ironically, it’s only when we stop our orders, that kids begin looking to us for help!
The guidance we want to give the young does an incredible amount of unintentional damage. It’s the entire reason for all world-wide fighting! Even war is only the end consequence of this original disagreement!
Stop guiding our young, allow them to live from their own inner life, and just about all of the world’s problems simply go away!
It has always taken a the steady input of our guidance to keep the whole world in trauma! Somebody always seems ready to step up and continue this damage.
Relax just for a little while and peace, harmony, and trust break out! The power of life just has to come from within, and not from other people!
Don’t believe it? Try it! It works on any scale. It’s not a cure. It’s just an absence of damage!
Allow the children to develop from their own resources, and everything gets better.
No more childhood issues. No more helpless people!
Inner worlds are lovers, not fighters. Real needs are trust and acceptance! Connection with that alone makes us loving!
Our inner life is where our self-esteem was! It gets left behind when we surrender our inner life!
Want your full self-esteem back? That can only be done by reconnecting with our inner world! That brings life itself back!
Life has to come from inside. That’s the only way it can work. It’s how life is designed.
Those of us forced to be all the things that others wanted us to be, can no longer live from within. It’s that simple.
Of course we try to understand what happened to us! We all wonder where our self-esteem went. We also can’t feel our own needs or even our feelings! That’s a lot of damage, and the quality of life in this condition is truly pathetic!
That’s why this world is such a mess. Any person living from their own inner world has the wisdom of their instincts, and awareness of their feelings and needs.
That makes them aware of their primary need, which is is trust and relationships. These people are morally responsible and non-destructive simply because of their own inner connections and wisdom.
The rest of us aren’t so lucky. Once deprived of our inner world, we are capable of any atrocity! In addition, we can’t feel our own needs so we chase power and money. These never satisfy, because they don’t fit our needs!
Our world needs to allow our infants to live from their own inner world. It fixes everything! All other life always does that.
