You
Nobody knows what is coming next as it is not in the now it is in the to-become. This is how it used to be but now everyone wants to know what will be happening tomorrow, next week and in the rest of their lives, people do not live for today which is the most important day of their life.
Tomorrow will come and then that will be today and again the most important day. This does not mean to say that you can do whatever you want to the detriment of others, it just means to live today as you want to live your life, with goodness and love for yourself and others. We all know people who live for themselves in a selfish way and that is not the way to do it, you need to look into yourself and decide how it is for you. You are You and need to be living as yourself and not as another wants you to be.
Others, whether they are family or partners or religious leaders, should not be making you change to live how they want you to live, they need to look at themselves first and look at their own lives and how they are living today and how they are being today. This will bring about change for them and this in turn will affect those around them in a positive way, a way that will make people happy and will make them more content in their own lives.
You need to be your own self and this does not mean that you will neglect others or not show love to your partner or family or go away from your beliefs and feelings. Too much emphasis is put on making people feel they are inadequate or living their life wrong because it does not fit in with the views of others. You could have said that about Ghandi or Nelson Mandela and many others but they are seen as icons of how to live your life and how others should live theirs. We don’t all have to be Ghandi to live our lives as we are unique and as such should all have a unique lifestyle for ourselves. As long as you feel that it is unique then you are living your life and not living someone else’s.
Throughout our lives we have to care for others and do things for others this does not change who you are, this is you showing your love and affection for that other person and it does not take away from who you are, it may seem it at times when things are tough and you and the one you care for are in difficult places but remember that it is your life and you should choose to do it only if you want to and not out of some sort of obligation. We often think we are doing things out of obligation but when you break it down usually the main reason is that you are doing it out of love for that other person and not really out of any sort of obligation. Keep your chin up and keep your heart up in these situations and you will do what is right for the right reasons and you will find that you can live your life at the same time, it may not be what others think you should do in that situation but it is you doing it and not them.
We all know what is right deep down so have a look in there and see what it is that you feel you want to do in each and every situation, you will know the right answer so all you now need to do is go with that right answer for you. Others will notice this in you and will not be shocked or surprised but will see you as you should be seen and they will like what they see in you and hopefully it will help them to do the same. We are all connected through source and are all individual souls linked to a higher purpose so need to live our lives as ourselves which will make us more aware of others and others needs while living our own lives to the full.
