I want to share something wonderful that happened to me recently at my job. It involved my supervisor who I have always had differences in approach and opinions. I usually struggled during our work together because of our differences. During a recent event that I hosted, I decided to take a very different approach with her, the approach was through love. In the past, when we had differences in our approach and we went with her approach, I went home upset and dismayed at my plight at work.
This time, I tried a gentler manner allowing her to take the lead in things, and praising her for her efforts. Although we still disagree on our approaches and opinions, we are now getting things accomplished as I am able to soften the hard edges between us. I try to show her through my actions that we are on the same team even if we don’t always agree. Our working relationship appears to be improving.
We may never be best friends, but we are cordial and I am kind to her as that is what she appears to need from me. I no longer fight hard with hard, but have become gentler in my way of dealing with wounded people as that is what most people are. When wounded, they need us to be gentle and kind with them as they are already injured. This has been quite a life lesson for me that I will apply to others in my life, particularly those I love, like my family.
I imagine I will get better and better at this ability, and can live a nonreactive life with most people even those who dislike me. May you find peace through love, Brooke (Copyright 2014 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)
