Acceptance of Myself and Others

I currently am working on acceptance of myself and others.  When we meet others in our lives, we want them to conform to our beliefs and our way of thinking.  We complain and lament why others are the way they are, and we wish them to be more like us.  I have come to realize that these desires are illusory as these desires are attachments or dependencies from our own needs.

Everyone is where they are and where they want to be in their emotional and spiritual growth. Those who fear looking into their past or at their current lives will remain in that place because they have chosen to remain there.  It is not our place even if we love them, to try to change them as people change because THEY want to change.  No one can do this for them, as this journey can only be taken by themselves.

I have come to this place of acceptance of myself too as I am where I am emotionally and spiritually because I have made this choice.  My journey is where it is because I have chosen this path.  It is freewill that determines the choices we make in our lives, so accept others for the choices they make as we accept our own choices. May your journey be safe and blessed, Brooke (Copyright 2014 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)

    I have to admit that acceptance of my non-acceptance was a tricky one. But each time I replace resistance with acceptance, non-acceptance softens. Love your thoughts on this topic.
