How are you today?
So, where are we on the path of knowing ourselves? … yes, getting there day by day … with awareness, with kindness and compassion … yes, I know, that is a tricky one … aren’t we all great (more or less) with compassion and kindness for others (most of the time)? … hahahaha
And even if we are … are we as kind and aware with ourselves? … well, we sometimes play still too much into our triggers, into our re-actions …
And this is what he meant … I believe … the good old Lao Tzu or Lao Tse … true power is knowing and mastering yourself … and knowing others can help you with that …
Many people in our surroundings are functioning as a mirror of our own behaviour … did you realise that? … so if you are aware of the reasons why this or that behaviour is causing so much re-action or pain or involvement for you … you will start realising that the change you want to see really has to start within yourself … true that … right?
You can’t change others … it is easier to change ourselves (and I don’t mean in a passive, adjusting, self destroying, main stream way, but in a growing way) … to raise above the issues, above the re-actions, above the tears, drama and trauma … (I just read a meme saying: hey girl, unless he is wearing a nappy you can’t change him … too much room for mind games and interpretation for me … hahahaha) … but true … mastering others is strength … mastering yourself is true power … and knowing and being aware of yourself is the key …
Have fun exploring yourself this week … listen within and find those triggers … find where you can create a different action … and enjoy the change …
Lot’s of Love,
