Do you hurt alongside them?
Do you avoid?
Do you feel confused, not knowing what to do to help?
So many of us carry some sort of burden. So many of us are wired to see the negative and we tend to dwell there….
We write horrific stories about the future. We catastrophize the present. We stray from hope.
We stray from love.
And by doing so, we repeat the cycle.
“Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.” -Saint Augustine.
We are all human. We all have our gold and our garbage.
And so easily we are distracted into believing that the garbage of others is so much worse than our own… so, again, we repeat the cycle.
When will we disrupt our pattern? For it is disrupting the patterns that leads us to the different; that leads us to the change that so many of us would prefer.
It all starts with you!
What thought pattern can you disrupt that will bring you back to love?
When love prevails, peace will too.
“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” —Albert Einstein
