With a steaming mug of hot herbs in my quiet enclave it is wisdom I seek.
Love always forgives and acknowledges “someone” the freedom to choose how they want to live their life as we get to choose our life… of course y’all know this!
On our unconditional love path, forgiveness, letting go and releasing all things negative comes up frequently which includes forgiving all the “someone’s”.
Most of us have experienced extending a helping hand to “someone” who has needed and asked for help, only to find that “someone” not happy with the left helping hand you extended, wanting instead your right helping hand and once you extend your right helping hand that “someone” is not happy with that, ungratefully “biting” your hands. Their perpetual state of unhappiness requires your understanding that you are not able nor are you meant to fix everything.
Most of us have experienced — seemingly more frequently — adults and children “snapping” and going ballistic. This can happen when you suggest “someone” get counseling for their domestic violence issues, OR when the designated event time is over and that “someone” goes well beyond a temper tantrum into a tirade from hell, OR when “someone” is told they cannot harm or be mean to others and they scream at the top of their lungs, thrashing about… it takes 15 minutes of soothe talk to clam them, OR you walk the dogs to the bus -stop and “someone” doesn’t want to walk, and assaults you with very loud and long nonstop verbal abuse with lots of colorful metaphors, on an otherwise beautiful peaceful trail.
There are people angry ALL the time about everything, people who are ALWAYS victims, grieving, afraid, unhappy… and the list goes on; just because we want to be happy, doesn’t mean we get to force “someone” else to be happy.
Ain’t no good draggin’ a thirsty “someone” to water, they ain’t’ gonna drink till they’re damn good and ready!!!
