So I realize how much of a hypocrite I am often. When I say often, I mean everyday. Since I started writing daily, I realize it even more. I learn things. I get excited about it. I talk about those things. I apply the concepts to my life, but I’m never done. I realize how much I have to work on with all the things I talk about in my blogs. The application and integration into my life never ceases.
Allowing people to be in their choice. This is a central tenant of my beliefs. It is a big part of unconditional love. I have to remember that my way isn’t everyone’s way. That seems silly for me to write because it is so obvious to me. There are times that I listen to conversations and I am expected to contribute. I will give my thoughts and opinions. I am wanting to help at all times and I think my ideas may assist someone. I may speak my opinion and it may come out as if the way I believe is right without having that intention. I realize when I offer my opinion though that I am not respecting other people’s beliefs sometimes. I have to understand that even volunteering my thoughts regarding my belief system unless specifically asked for generally should not be brought up. Maybe I’m going to an opposite extreme so that I can find my balance, I will have to figure that out. I know however that I want to allow everyone to be in their choice. I want to offer my learned wisdom to others if it’s applicable and helpful. I want to apply the gifts of Wisdom I have found for myself by allowing everyone to choose their own Truths. It is a work in progress. I often say that I’m “under construction”. I don’t realize the severity of my pride and being out of balance at times. It’s so hard to find the balance in all areas of life where we’re not to showy, but we’re also honest with our skills or we try to be skeptical, but not overly critical and still stay open, but not overly open. I’m lucky to have friends that call my shit out. I crave that honesty. I am not better at life than anyone else. It’s a daily struggle to work on myself and find some sort of playfulness. Another balance to be had which should be added to the list of 1 million for me.
I think it’s funny sometimes that I will ask for something to write about and then something slaps me in the face. It’s a true gift. I have a very lovely friend that will tell me things like, “It’s so nice to have a friend that is a life coach.” I know when this is said, it is said with a smile while I am being poked by a pointed stick. Friends should be able to call your shit out. There’s a level of trust and love where they want to see the best in you and sometimes they can see it better from their perspective. I welcome this interaction.
We’re so distorted. We cannot see clearly out of our windows that are so dirty. Sometimes, we cannot see the forest for the trees. We have a hard time even knowing who we are because of the negative talk that we have against ourselves or the belief systems that we have adopted that are dogmatic.
I will get excited and offer suggestions when it is best to let others figure things out on their own. I have to work on taming my exuberance to help others which crosses the boundary of respect for others abilities and knowledge of what is best for them. That’s a heavy one for me to even realize. It is so good though because I think this is out of balance in my life. I will put this into practice in my daily walk and remember my speech with others. I’m not in bad shape with my communications, but my positive conversation can get out of balance even though there’s no intention of disrespect. I’m thankful for all the Divine Wisdom that I’ve been given. With certainty, I’m no better than anyone else. I love listening for words that are given to me from God, my Guide, soul family and friends. I am so grateful for my real friends. Real friends will call your behavior out that they see is out of balance. My friend that did this recently was so gentle with including all the laughing emojis. I learn from my friends … so thankful.
