Discernment penetrates the fronts, words, glitter, and grins to the truth.
The old me tried to hold on to relationships (all types) in spite of KNOWING.
The current me does a self-evaluation to determine if the problem lies with me. If it does, I correct it. If it doesn't, it's just not my problem.
I continue to manifest what's in me: love, but I no longer chase folk down to try to hold onto them so they can receive that love. It is, what it is...
See, I had to learn not to fight what I KNOW, but to accept and rest in it. It was not an easy lesson. There was a lot of heartache and disappointment along the way.
I'm free now in my "knowing", and they're free in their belief that I believe what they say or "act". 🙂
Baggage should not be carried from year to year because each year has a fresh batch of hardships, heartache, aggravation, and disappointment to pile on.
When I walked into the place I'm in now, unnecessary baggage fell away. This place is a definite keeper! It's unfortunate it took so long for me to get here...
