'YES — and' ... sharing a bit about conflicting emotions & complexities by

‘If there was ever a time for complex emotions, this is it. Yesterday I was dancing in the kitchen cooking. This morning, I was crying on the sofa filled with anxiety.
I am hopeful AND worried. I am grateful AND disappointed. I am loving the rest AND frustrated that it is imposed upon instead of chosen. I am ok AND I am sad for others.
There is so much going on for all of us. While we are on this uncomfortable emotional rollercoaster, we can also see the beauty and complexity of our humanness. All the things we are able to experience. The cycles. How easy it is for our balance to be thrown off given our circumstances.
Make space for messy right now (always, actually). Let it be ok. Let this moment, whatever it is...be complex and enough.
What are some contradicting emotions you’re struggling with at the moment?'

GETTING IN SOMEONE ELSE'S WORLD

We listen through our filter. We project our feelings onto another trying to relate to their experience. Sometimes we know it - BUT MOSTLY, we don't. We believe that we know "why" they're taking the actions that they choose. We tell their story in our minds. We become right about it - feeling more secure in our connection because we understand. Complete with a list of steps and possible reasons why they should or shouldn't think the way they do - we imagine that we feel closer.

WE DON'T GET IN OTHERS' WORLDS - we just imagine that we do. We stay in ours, carry it over to that person as if we're giving them something and then proceed to lay our thoughts, feelings, views, conclusions and personal beliefs over the top of theirs.

This is an important awareness that results from Self Development Thinking. The goal isn't to STOP being in our own world - in fact, that's a huge part of the growth work.

The idea is to be so focused inward that we realize THAT WE ARE! Focused inward... that is. This internal focus allows us to realize that we aren't really in another's head - feelings - life.

Have you found yourself saying, "I didn't get enough sleep last night," only to find the other person saying, "Me neither, the baby kept waking up all night."

This is a petite example of "not getting in another's world." The goal is to be aware that we're probably not really UNDERSTANDING WHAT IT MEANS TO BE that person. That would require us to be unconcluded with them.

If we're are unable to be unconcluded about what we discover within the Self - then why would we be unconcluded about another Self? And, that's the bottom line. (con't below) ...

'We are all tired. Really, we are. It’s a hard road, but it’s also a beautiful one. Perhaps we expect too much from ourselves and from others. Perhaps humanity can only make slow progress, like an inch worm. Perhaps we need to celebrate how far we have come more often. And rest more. And relish the simple pleasures. And look for love everywhere. There is a river near where I live. It meanders slowly, peacefully. It doesn’t ask itself why it isn’t an ocean, or a raging river, or some other thing. It just surrenders to what it is. Maybe we just need to surrender more to who we are. I think I will lie down tomorrow beside the river. And take a rest. And sweet surrender.’
