How many of us really wanted an approval from the people we care about? A nod, a hug, a tap in the back, a 'hey! That's great' and all those approving words and gestures? And everything's- gonna- be- alright-kinda thing for us? Why do we do that? Why do we want an approval? Why do we need validation from others? (mind you, I am like this too. Ha!)
Through this journey what I've always bear in mind, wherever life may take me, whomever I meet along the way and whatever happens, I don't need to prove other people's choices are wrong just so I can believe in my chosen choice. But having said that, be absolutely confident and sure that, Your Heart Can Keep You Safe. Coz, frankly speaking, it isn't easy to go against the grain. When the people you care about tells you and expects you to do things their way and you've done that like almost all your life- it's gonna be one hard task for you. Can your heart take it?
But you know the price?
You gain back that self-love. You gain back that freedom you're on the brink of losing. You gain back the You! You finally found out for such a long, freakin' hard time who's got your back no matter what! Who just accepts you unconditionally bcoz you are you and not bcoz you're like their dummy following their ways.
Be yourself! By now, we're too mature enough to realized that not everyone around us will understand and accept us. Not everyone we care about will care to us the way we want them too. But heck on that! We've got everything we will ever need within ourselves! The greatest relationship we will ever meet is our relationship within ourselves. Thank God/That Which Is Divine/All That There Is that we are created as A Whole! We are not incomplete without our spouses, mother, father, children, siblings, loved ones etc. bcoz we've always been complete! We complete ourselves! That's just maybe a bit hard to understand but God is so good, everything we will ever need is within us!
I am not saying hate the people who can not accept the real you. Or forget them. I personally think, The truth is when people kept on holding on you even after you've become the real you is either they truly love you, or they were really crying for help. Listen with your heart. There's a reason why people are in your life. You can help them, try to understand them, but Never live your life according to their terms. For their own life is their own responsibility, same as yours. Understand that we are all here to learn our individual lessons. What I'm trying to say is, you can be yourself, say what you want, do what you want and still be in the company of them. Isn't that what being at peace is all about? (at peace within one's self) be in the middle of a chaos/people who disapprove of what you do,events that don't seem to go your way, but still kept stillness inside? Much love ;)
