I dont expect everyone to always understand my way of thinking, nor do I expect people to understand my perspective. Everyone has their own way of living their lives... as do I. The problem I run into is when people cannot understand my choices... when they feel they are better suited to make decisions for me. Here's a news flash... I can think for myself, I take care of myself and even though this might be a shock... I can make my own decisions!!
Here's what I ask... when you are speaking to people, whoever it might be, try to remember to respect their wishes, even if you do NOT agree with them. Try to understand, be compassionate and as always... non-judgmental. If someone should say something that you cannot agree with... agree to disagree. Learn it as a lesson... and still show love. Love and forgiveness are two things that are stingy in this world... Someone that is very dear to me taught me that... and he also taught me that in this life you have to do what is going to make YOU happy... you cant make everyone around you happy no matter how much you want to.
I hope that everyone that reads this has nothing but peace, love and forgiveness in their lives... and please realize that you are loved... its good to smile. :)
