Let Them

"Just Let them.

If they want to choose something or someone over you, LET THEM.

If they want to go weeks without talking to you, LET THEM.

If they are okay with never seeing you, LET THEM.

If they are okay with always putting themselves first, LET THEM.

If they are showing you who they are and not what you perceived them to be, LET THEM.

If they want to follow the crowd, LET THEM.

If they want to judge or misunderstand you, LET THEM.

If they act like they can live without you, LET THEM.

If they want to walk out of your life and leave,

hold the door open, AND LET THEM.

 

Let them lose you. Let them miss you. Let them regret. 

You were never theirs, because you were always your own. First. So let them. 

Let them show you who they truly are, not tell you.

Let them prove how worthy they are of your time.

Let them make the necessary steps to be a part of your life.

Let them earn your forgiveness.

Let them call you to talk about ordinary things.

Let them take you out on a Thursday, Lunch. Or Sunday Night. 

Let them talk about anything and everything just because it’s you they are talking to.

Let them have a safe place in you.

Let them see the heart in you that didn’t harden.

Let them love you. 

Just Let Them."

The Art of Receiving: John Steinbeck on the True Meaning of Gratitude

“It is so easy to give, so exquisitely rewarding. Receiving, on the other hand, if it be well done, requires a fine balance of self-knowledge and kindness.”

A teaching like no other. Handed down from generation to generation from teacher to student through an unbroken chain Self-knowledge confirms what ordinary people and normal people as well as prophets, saints and sages have been saying for thousands of years: 

 ‘The proof is already in the pudding!’.

While many beliefs define the "eternal" as some extraordinary destination yet to be reached and yet to be accomplished, Self-knowledge of the Veda/Upanishads tears this idea apart.

Stating that already being born human being, we are the eternal destination we are looking for; already reached. That before we can even think of searching for a solution for ourselves, we are the solution.

Self-knowledge tells us that Truth being ourselves, the Absolute is already ever reached. Other than knowing it, once the destination of Truth is pointed out, finding ourselves to be the solution, no other solution is needed. No longer lost in living, no longer aimless and seeking, no longer stressed and looking everywhere, we can simply relax and get on with living a whole life worth living. 

Thanks Giving Is In The Receiving.
Don't Be Demanding ~ Don't Be Needy ~ Don't Be Controlling.
Relax, Refine, Rest, Repeat and Rise
Calmly Create A Vaster More Receptive Re Integrated Wholeness
Be More Spacious, Be More Gracious and It Will Come. 
LET THEM in
The Surrender To Your Own True Self
Welcome Home.
