It is no surprise to me that many of us forget that love and life are never iinseperable and that in the routine of our life we should be loving and considerate towards all we love. The other day a really dear relative of mine called up to explain at how upset she was with her husband as he did not tell her that he had resumed smoking and that she discovered it herself! My first reaction was that listen, he is an adult who is free to do what he wants and is mature enough to know the implications of good and bad. And her nagging will only make matters worse! she was inconsolable and wanted to have it out with her hubby and make him choose her or his cigarettes! Crazy attitude. I did try to give her gyan and tell her what I do try and tell many of my friends and myself as well - Is it really about me alone??
Let me explain, so often in our lives and routines we are completely stuck and feel like the world and the buck stops with us.......In this feeling we stamp on others, ignore others and do what we think we are doing and more often than not completely miss seeing what is around! and then when we see a glimpse of something then we draw all kinds of conclusions and assume it's all about me alone and we get upset with others about things without ever thinking about others.
So stop a while, think where you are headed, who is missing you, who needs you, who's calling you and who's looking hopefully at you and life could be less complicated and peaceful for all! Amen...
