There's
nothing magic about living life from a spiritual perspective.
Quite the opposite.
If
you live life from a spiritual perpective you accept
what is, learn from it and move forward. You don't get
stuck in one place. You let life have a steady flow.
The unspiritual path is to try to over-control things
... for which the end result is stress. You create stress
because you try to control the uncontrollable.
You
can manage stress if you accept what is out of your
hands. Let go of the idea that you are a magician who
can change everything. Magic is illusion. So is control.
Recognize that others are involved in the equation.
You live and work with people, not puppets, so accept
that things will not always be done your way.
Yes,
it is important that you express yourself on issues
that matter to you or your community ... but let go
of the idea that you have to be right and can sway other
people against their will.
As
an adult, you have the option of walking away from any
situation that you deem to be unhealthy. When you choose
to remain in a situation, you are making an unwritten
agreement to allow the others involved to voice and
act upon their opinions. There's no other way to look
at it. Choose to stay or leave. If you stay, honour
your agreement.
Your
choice is either find a way to work with other people's
ideas and opinions, or take a different path with a
set of people whose expectations more closely match
your own.
Free
yourself from the bonds of stress caused by trying to
control things outside of your control. Now that's magic.
Self-Reflection
Questions:
1.
Are you treating your family and peers as people or
puppets?
2.
Have you been trying to change any situation that is
outside your control?
3.
Do you need to move on from a particular situation or
views that you find unhealthy?
