Daily Nugget #69
no-body knows
you know the rest
right?
and
it’s fur shur true.
that nobody REALLY knows how YOU feel
what YOU’ve been thru.
no body really knows your experience
but you.
unless
of course
you are able to switch skins
(boy, that would be interesting).
even then
you still couldn’t really FEEL
what another feels.
feel thru the lens of their beliefs
their experiences
their sensitivities.
we NEVER KNOW how the other person is feeling
and
what their inner experience is.
we are so quick to assume
or
judge
and
think that we know.
but we don’t know shit.
we may SHARE similar experiences
and
feelings about a particular topic
but we are as about as individual as you can get.
we are SO unique
expressing whatever it is we are here to express
thru whatever lens
we choose.
did you hear that?
whatever lens we CHOOSE.
yes, it’s a choice
how we react
how we feel
how we …..
how will you choose to live your life?
what kind of lens will you look thru?
what kind of experiences will you CHOOSE to have.
and
will you choose to honor the thoughts
feelings
and
beliefs
of those around you?
this does not mean (no not ever!)
that we have to agree.
this only means that we choose to accept.
accept what is
and
who is.
who’s on 1st?
(ha! some of you might remember that skit.)
accept. accept. accept.
let’s stop judging one another.
let’s stop thinking we know what’s best for someone else.
only the individual can truly know what is best for him/herself.
maybe
just maybe
this whole idea that we know best
stems from the fact that we DON’T really know what to do with our own lives.
that we DON’T really trust in our own experience
our own path.
huh.
some things to ponder on a tuesday afternoon
or
whatever day/month/year
you find yourself reading this.
Choose love.
Trust yourself.
Let others be who they are
by being who YOU are.
We are truly ONE.
Let’s started living that way.
big hugs.
