Most of us wait for somebody or something to make us happy and fulfilled.
A partner, a spouse, a parent (or both), a boss, friends, colleagues, God… you name it.
Or some of us may believe that realizing something in our head is enough…and wait till things change somehow by themselves.
This waiting takes up years if not the whole life for so many people.
I am sad to see amazing men and women outsourcing their lives, while being in resignation about their own power and wisdom.
If only we all realized that no one owes us a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g… nor they will ever be able to make us happy and fulfilled even if they put all the effort into it (and most certainly they won’t!).
Even God won’t make us happy.
I see that all unhappiness, dissatisfaction, expectations and entitlements are a result of us not having grown up yet. It’s us still playing children and wanting mommy to take care of us. And if mommy doesn’t, we get very upset and even more insisting on our unhappiness and dissatisfaction.
And if only someone dares to point at us…we quickly know what to say...
“Yes, but I have fears.”
“But s/he is my partner, so s/he must...”
"S/he needs to change first, then I can be happy."
"I know it myself...but it's not that easy..."
I once witnessed a woman at the Russian Embassy complaining out loud about her brother in law who is very rich but doesn’t give her a penny. I engaged with her and asked “Why must he give you a penny if he is rich?” “Because he is rich!” she said very loud. Then I asked her: “How many years have you been complaining about it?” She said “Ever since he got rich, which was more than 10 years ago!”
This is just an example, but most of us to a smaller or larger degree complain like this about something or someone, on whom we project our entitlements.
If it’s not something or someone outside, then we complain about ourselves. How incapable we are, how not good enough we are, how little Will we have to do things we know we should be doing, how we did not get the right genes or the right upbringing from our parents, etc.
Isn't it ridiculous? And plus, never ending...
What if it’s time to say “ENOUGH!”.
Right now it is ENOUGH.
Enough to outsource my Life to anyone or anything else including my own Identity!
It’s my Life and each thought I give energy to as well as each action matters and shapes my life, day after day.
I am the creator of my own Reality. And even my Soul, unless I surrender to its movement, won't rescue me.
There is no one who can make me happy, besides myself. And I have everything needed to live this Life the way I choose to.
What if I take responsibility for my Life completely right here right now?
What if there was never anyone responsible for my Life anyway besides me?
Then, if I am the only one responsible, how do I choose to live every day of my life? How do I choose to show up?
Let's live our lives to the fullest, beloved.
Yours and mine are happening right NOW. 🙏
