Life is about balance, and you mustn’t become unsteady and lose yourself in the process. When you become unsteady, you may fall off and will have to begin again.
Give yourself to people in a way that will be from your heart and helpful in some way. Be as kind and as helpful as you can be. But don’t allow people to take advantage of your kindness and the things you can give. If you feel that you are giving away too much of this energy, then know that it’s okay to slow down, even stop if you have to. Saving energy for yourself is a healthy thing to do. It’s okay to love yourself too. You matter just as much as anybody else in this world.
Love others as best as you can. Love them as good as they make you feel. Love them like they are the best humans on earth. Love and cherish them as much as you can for as long as you can, but don’t let love make you blind to the truth. Don’t let love stand in the way of what you know isn’t right. Don’t enable “love” to harm you in any way. That’s not what love is.
Trust others as a way to respect and honor a person, but don’t forget that the ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ in your book are also to be respected.
Listen, learn, and adapt because that means you care. But don’t forget you play a role too, and that you’re just as important.
Do these things freely and naturally. Live life like it’s temporary because it is. Do things the way you want. Never settle for things and people who don’t resonate with you. Dance to your rhythm and the right people will find you.
