Depending on love from others is a losing game. It's also a lot to ask of another human being. I don't mean allowing love is a losing game. I mean seeking certainty in it. There is no certainty in getting love from others. That's not the responsibility of other human beings to provide for me. Really, there is no responsibility another human being has to me.
It is when I expect another person to be something, say something, or do something that disappointment occurs, as well as blame.
I am discovering a place to plant my feet, my soul, my emotional center, that has nothing to do with others. It has nothing to do with how they see me, what they want from me, what they do, or how they operate in their life and around me.
A place where certainty is one where I have full ownership. A place that other people have nothing to do with. A place that other people have no access to. A place that only I can stay.
A place where nothing else other than me is required. Nothing is lacking. There is nothing to get, have, or become in this place.
Nothing to prove either.
It has nothing to do with success. Nothing to do with results. Nothing to do with past or future.
A place where I watch and listen to life as it moves around me. A place where I let go of creating outcomes. A place where I let things happen. A place where I live - always.
This is a new place for me to stay. I like it here.
