It is what it is and it aint what it aint....

I made an observation awhile back that I hope will help to put some of you at ease. When we Charted to come into this world, we charted good things, bad things, pleasant people, negative people (you know...balance of nature, yin/yang) and even who our family is....sometimes that is a little tough to understand, huh? Why would we CHOOSE parents or sibling or other family members who would be mean or rotten to us? Why subject ourselves to negativity and hositlity from loved ones and friends? Here is why: When times are good, people are kind and understanding, and your family and loved ones accept you for who you are - it feels great BUT..... what are you learning? How is your Soul expanding? How are you fulfulling your Theme? It is through the struggles and patience that is required in dealing with a difficult loved one that we learn how far our Soul and ability to love can be stretched to include those from whom we Charted to be a part of. We get to fulfill our Themes and grow as people; we learn what we WANT to be and what WE DO NOT want to be by watching and feeling how other's behave - ecspecially those closest to us. The bottom line is, if you are struggling to "gain acceptance" or figure someone out or change someone - don't waste your time. Love and accept them as they are, by doing this, you are growing Spiritually....and saving yourself a migraine or five!
