In Relationship You Come To Know Your Pitfalls

“When you are in relationship with people, in a thousand and one ways you are provoked, challenged, seduced. Again and again, you come to know your pitfalls, your limitations, your anger, your lust, your possessiveness, your jealousy, your sadness, and your happiness. All moods come and go and you are constantly in a state of turmoil. But this is the only way to know who you are. 
Self-knowledge is not the knowledge of a dead self.  Self-knowledge is the knowledge of the process of the self. It is an alive phenomenon. The self is not a thing, it is an event, it is a process.
Never think in terms of things, the self is not there inside you just like a thing waiting in your room…
Knowing the self is a process: changing, moving, arriving at new altitudes, moving into new planes, and going deeper into new depths.
Each moment much work is going on and the only way to encounter this self is to encounter it in relationship.

If You Want A Love That Lasts

“If you want a love that lasts, you have to be willing to be the change you wish to see. Love isn’t passive; it’s active. It’s about making the choice to love, even when it’s difficult. It’s about showing up for your partner, even when it’s the last thing you feel like doing. By being the change—by choosing love in the face of adversity—you set the tone for your relationship. You become the foundation on which real, lasting love is built.

Love someone when you don’t want to. When they aren’t the easiest to deal with. When they are hard to love.

This is the true test of love. It’s easy to love when everything is going well, but real love shows up in the tough times. It’s about staying patient when your partner is stressed, offering understanding when they are irritable, and being there when they’re at their lowest. It’s about loving them not just for their best qualities, but through their flaws and imperfections.

This kind of love requires resilience, empathy, and selflessness. But when you love someone in their hardest moments, you create a bond that’s unshakable, a love that endures the test of time.

Real love doesn’t fade when the spark is gone. It deepens through commitment, grows through patience, and lasts through every season of life.”

There Is A Right Time For Everything

Life is simple! Why make it complicated for yourself? Why choose the devious path when the straight path lies before you?

Let life unfold for you, and do not try to force its unfoldment. You cannot force the unfolding of a flower, for if you try to do so, you will destroy the beauty and perfection of that flower by your impatience.

There is a right time for everything, so why not get into rhythm with life, flow with it and behold My wonders and glories unfold in true perfection? When something is done out of timing, it holds up so much, instead of speeding it along, as may be imagined.

Therefore wait upon Me in quietness and confidence, and never try to rush ahead and do something out of timing. At the same time never drag your feet and waste precious time. Realize that there is a glorious pattern and plan running through everything you do, and give eternal thanks.

The Power Of Your Thoughts

“You are the source of all that happens to you. You decide what will happen to you. You are the sum total of all your thoughts, feelings, emotions, beliefs, expectations, intentions, goals, memories, knowledge, ability, skills, and energies. Your ability to control and regulate your life, your capacity to face adversity, your willingness to learn from failures, your interest in forging healthy relationships, your integrity, personality, balance, character, and attitude are shaped by them. They make possible what you desire in your life, how you relate to your world and experience the joys and sufferings of life.

Truly speaking, we are all great survivors. We survive against great odds. We can adapt to circumstances and survive in difficult environments. People have been doing it for ages. We may not be able to change the course of the planets, but we can change the course of our lives. With positive thoughts and aspirations, we can bring light into our hearts and minds and change our destinies. Your thoughts manifest your desires. Since they are not always under your control, you should know how to attune them to your goals and aspirations. You have to learn how to think positively and keep your mind focused on your goals. In this regard, the following suggestions are helpful …

  • Pay attention to what you think mostly. Avoid frivolous thoughts.
  • Believe in your ability to manifest your thoughts.
  • Clearly know what you want and focus on it.
  • Dispute your negative thoughts using positive ones.
  • Think deeply until you have weighed all the options.
  • Be realistic, but know you can create magic with your thoughts and actions.
  • Do not let others control your life. Empower yourself.
  • Cultivate relationships with people who are successful and positive.
  • Stay focused on your strengths and positive outcomes.
  • Avoid people who are by nature negative and critical.
  • Organize and prioritize your resources and tasks.
  • Frequently visualize your goals to remember them.
  • Use positive affirmations to reinforce your thoughts and beliefs.
  • Keep an open mind to see new possibilities and alternatives.
  • Improve your vocabulary and communication.
  • Practice meditation and mindfulness techniques to remove negative energy from your mind and body.

Some people work less and accomplish more. There are some who toil day and night, but remain unhappy and unfulfilled. Some, despite their great riches, do not experience prosperity. Driven by insecurity, they live like poor people.

For some, life is a rewarding experience. The mere sight of a flower or a sky fills them with joy and wonder. When you interact with some, you feel energized, peaceful and spiritually uplifted, but when you meet some, you feel disturbed and depressed, as if something has been taken away from you or drained out.

These differences exist because of the differences in thinking and perceptions. It is for us to decide what we want to do with our lives and in which direction we intend to go. It is up to us to decide whether to take control of our minds and thoughts or let them control us.”

The Choices We Make In Life

“The choices we make in life determine the direction of our future. Sometimes, the choice is easy: to continue on the same path we’ve always followed, or to embark on something new. Sometimes it’s harder. The path may not be clear, and it may not even be something we’d originally considered.

Hardship along the way is not a bad thing. It has the power to create wisdom and compassion. If you choose so.

Every day you have the choice to live in fear, or to step into the light.

To embrace the unknown, or to run away from it. To trust that there is something greater than yourself, or to doubt that such a thing exists. The choice is yours.

When you embrace the unknown, instead of running away from it, your life will begin to change. You’ll start to trust yourself more, your intuition will become stronger, and you’ll start to draw closer to that place where you feel connected with everything around you.

Experiencing anything profoundly will mean ‘sacrificing’ something for it—perhaps your time, perhaps some other aspect of your life and maybe in the end it’s just your ego. But that sacrifice is necessary to begin experiencing things on a deeper level than you have before. It’s easy to get caught up in chasing things—or avoiding them—but focusing on how to deepen your experience is how you’ll wake up in line with all that is.

Keep your mind and heart open to possibilities. Listen to your intuition. Turn off the noise. Don’t immediately reply. Just let it sink in. Meditate on new concepts. How does it feel? Go with what feels best. That will always be the right path for you.”
