It does not matter others expectations of me or what they think of me. They are going by my past actions and reactions. I have turned that page. I’m on a journey forward. A Quest…
What does matter? Am I truly seeing, truly listening, truly feeling?
And with all of that, have I gained wisdom, compassion, understanding? Do I have peace? Do I have joy?
These are the billion dollar questions.
That soon I will know the answers too.
An answer is profitable in proportion to the intensity of the quest.
Be careful. By saying: it does not matter what others think or expect from me…,you can easily close yourself off totally from people. There ARE those that CARE for you,. Does what THEY think matter?
I see that of knowing one own selfworth, to see ones self how God see’s you and not seeking the validation of others increases your selfworth.
Keith D, because one refuses to be influenced by what others think of him or her, it does not mean that the one is denying those who care for him or her. This blog obviously is a declaration of independence from others opinions. The only thought I have learned to give attention to is God’s.
