These past few weeks
especially I have been feeling a lot more sensitive and I find myself
taking things a lot more personally. I know part of it is just my
disease. The part of taking things extremely personal. The past few
days I have not been in a good place mentally.
I have been
questioning my self worth and I haven’t been doing to well with it.
I know its a core belief that I am working very hard on changing. My
problem is that it’s getting the better of me at the moment. The
past few days I have not felt very worthy.
Its very hard for me
at the moment as I am struggling with not taking things so personally
as I know that those people are not meaning any harm to me its just
that I’m dealing with sensations I haven’t really felt before and
I don’t know what the fuck they are yet.
Its hard because the
side of me that is taking things so personally wants to just lash out
at everyone. While the more affectionate side is doing everything it
can to keep me calm and understanding. Its a dichotomy.
We often take
advantage of where we are at with our level of understanding
especially when communicating to others. We often forget that they
are in a different place than we are. We forgot to change our
perspective to understand theirs. I still do that with christians
mostly, but do find I expand that to others as well. It goes back to
trying to be in control of that which I am not.
I’m realizing that
everyone has to grow at their own pace and they have to believe or
not believe in whatever gets them to where they need to be. Their
journey is not myne. My journey is not theirs. I know how I learn not
how they learn.
Someone believes
something because for them that is what they need. Christians believe
in their version of God because that is what they need. I believe in
my version because that is what I need. My chosen experiences are not
based on their belief’s but my own as their experiences are not
based on myne.
As we awaken we see
things in ways that can’t easily be explained to those who are
still asleep. Learning how to not only learn this new perspective
that is opening to us but to also allow ourselves to understand
someone elses perceptive and understand that both are right.
For you at your
experience level your perspective is right for you but not
necessarily right for me and vice versa. Allowing ourselves to see
both sides of the coin is not instinctively natural. We each have a
world of expectations to prove this.
If we are to truly
grow we must let go of the expectations we have. We must learn how
others learn so we can teach them in a way they will understand and
appreciate. In doing so we can then really start to break the chains
we have bound to ourselves.
We must remember
everyone learns differently and we all have our own understanding of
things. When we disagree with someones perspective we should approach
them about it in a way that allows them to feel they are teaching us.
Until we are able to put aside our limited views we cannot allow
ourselves to be open to the others veiws.
Having those who’s
perspectives we don't understand feel like they are teaching us
doesn’t leave them with a feeling of belittlement. After all love
does not leave one feeling worse. I’m choosing to live in love as I
understand it however I am doing what I can to expand that
understanding. I again thank the highers for encouraging me to grow.
