"It is not about me"
This can be a very hard realization to come to. There are times when we find ourselves down, or angry, or indifferent. It can sometimes even sneak up on us when we are not careful.
The hardest thing to understand during these times is that there are greater things at work and that the outcome of many situations is not about how we feel at any given point in time.
It is natural to think of self. It is often necessary. Some of us don't think of self enough while others think of self entirely too much.
In either case, it is often that we can become stuck in negative emotions because we have not fully understood that the situation is not about us. We all want to be understood and that is natural.
However, when we do not see outside of ourselves or know how to put our feelings aside at times, for the greater good, there is often more damage caused and the negative emotions can become deeper.
Thoughts? Please share. I look forward to hearing from you.
