We are bogged down with dislikes and needs to be liked. What about love? Why is that so complicated and full of so many expectations?
Love is just acceptance.
When you love someone, you accept them, as they are. When you love yourself, it’s the same thing. You accept yourself as you are. There are no complication. There are no expectations. Or at least there shouldn’t be. You love without pressure. Without pull.
Why do we disregard one another, so often? Not taking into account the other person’s feelings or forgetting to have empathy?
A Golden rule, or life practice, is treat others the way you would like to be treated. Can this be more normal? Rather than hating on others, we could practice being more understanding and patient. Taking into account that we each have our own viewpoints. We each have different life experiences and challenges. Sometimes these things can be easy to forget. Yet, it is really important to become more aware, for the fact is, we are each living different lives. A good day for you could be a terrible day for someone else.
With so much new pain and struggle in the world, I hope that others can take on this way of viewing life, seeing that we are all one, living different lives. We are all connected. We are all important. We are all necessary and worthy of love and acceptance. We each deserve peace. Each deserve love and kindness.
Life is pretty simple; wake up, breathe, move, eat and sleep. Let go of what is not allowing peace in your life. Find more ways to also bring more peace and joy to others. This will bring you a great amount of satisfaction and joy, as well. Always live for love.
