“We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.” - Sam Keen
When other people do things that are hurtful to you, things that anger you, and cause you to question decisions and beliefs you’ve held, remember all humans are imperfect, damaged, and living their own trauma responses every day. Very little of another person’s behavior has anything to do with you.This is the reason we must be clear about our own WHY, our personal gifts, talents and passions.
Most of American life is 80% following expectations, and 20% allowing our light to be on dim. Imagine 80% of your time being spent with the brights on all your gifts, talents, and passions and only 20% of your time going along, to get along. Life would look very different! Give me the bright lights. Make me put my sunglasses on!
