Connecting with self, others, life, and reality. | Authentic Relating Facilitator | Author of “Effortless”
Thread of threads about connection, communication, conflict & relating:
Honor yourself. Know your boundaries. Speak truth. Advocate for your needs. Know that you can't be obliged. Honor everyone. Respect boundaries. Listen & consider. Acknowledge their sovereignty. Honor the space we share. Respect its limits. Sense its nature. Delight in mystery.
Love is waiting to cheer for you when you find it. Ready to lift you up from the moment you reunite. Ready to take you to unseen heights. Celebrating every step of the way as you get closer to finding it fully. It will cheer for you when you think you see it in someone else.…
"The ball is in their court now” sounds logical but can kill a friendship or fling. If both people think it, or didn't notice the other's move, that's the end. The ball is always in everyone's court at the same time. The question is if you both still want to play or not.
Why is there a disease called “chickenpocks” but none called “cowmoos”, “dogbarks” or “catmeows”? Medical science really missed some shots there.
When we argue with reality, we lose the argument. For me, if I resist reality, the fear underneath is that accepting it would make me passive. That I'd lose the capacity to impact it. But on the contrary, it's only by accepting reality that we can step inside it & participate.
Instead of looking for silver linings, try looking for the tiny tip of a golden thread hidden in what’s happening. Silver linings can make you see the current situation differently. Golden threads can be followed all the way out of the labyrinth
Thinking of the many times I've cast someone as a villain who was correctly performing a function designed for something that didn't apply to my situation, but did make it harder. I'm grateful for their work and intend to hold compassion in my heart when I encounter them again.
If what you're currently focusing on doesn't fit on 1 post-it, it's probably not focus. If you need a post-it to remember it, it's probably not focus. If you have a bunch of post-its but forget to look at them, the reason you're ignoring them is focus.
1) Pause 2) Suspend all you may have learned about the world, yourself, life, and the people around you. 3) Suspend any relationship you’ve formed to those as well. 4) Where are you and what do you see? (Wait for an answer without words, as they were things you learned.)
if I like you, I like you I won’t stop liking you just because you do something I don’t like if I did that, that would mean I didn’t actually like YOU— I just like/d the things you were doing but if I like you, I mean it
