Other people.
There is no control over other people
and thank goodness for that!
People might misunderstand you because of their own
clouds. Should they lash out at you, with anger, fear, confusion
know that
it is because
of their own, unhealed pain.
Projection is real—> But it doesn’t touch you with anything
other than sadness. Grief. No relationship with people who cannot
be relating to anyone besides their own shadows.
Will they heal it?
Still not yours to heal for them.
It’s their job.
Their lives.

Thanks. I can always use reminders on this one. Working on oneself is plenty.
Grace often brings us back to this place. Thank you, JoAnna.
I remember that ‘let go’ of control. I did finally see that ‘I’ was hanging on for dear life to something that was in fact amplifying that hold. A perception wrongly held. So I understood it instead…and I let go. The peace and love was a delight after a lifetime of straining to hang on. Great post Ka, may we all find that let go 😀❤️🙏
What a transformation when we loosen the grip on what isn’t solely ours to hold. Thank you, Mark.
Yes, I needed to read this. I needed someone to tell me this. Thank you. Reading this post cleared my mind. Thank you. You don’t know how much good you did to me by writing this. Thanks ❣️
I’m grateful that you read this, then! Thank goodness. Thank you for letting me know! 🙂
Sigh ! Thank you and welcome sweetheart sis 🤗

You are so right about this…..and written so beautifully. Thank you dear Ka. X
Thank you very much, Janet!
Wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead 🙂
It’s so hard sometimes to not be able to control someone else’s reaction… but we have to let it go.. we have to be at peace with how it goes.. I understand your words well xx
Thank you, Christy. Detachment to outcome is process; and also, I think, acknowledging and holding in love the grief that comes with loss of relationship due to someone else being stuck and being unable to help them, losing intimacy, connection (or the reality that there was never going to be a connection). We are human, and the love needs to go somewhere… so it returns to self/itself, or wherever it can be understood. Love just flows like that, and it’s okay. Have a wonderful weekend!
Such an important lesson to learn, Ka. Not only to let them own their feelings but to safeguard our peace of mind. A beautiful poem, my friend. ❤
Thank you, so much! I’m sorry I missed this comment. I’m trying to improve! 🙂
