It is not necessarily a pleasant
experience, but there will be times in our lives when we come across
people who do not like us. As we know, like attracts like, so usually
they don’t like us because we do not share similar characteristics.
Rather than taking it personally, we can let them be who they are,
accepting that each of us is allowed to have different perspectives and
opinions. When we give others that freedom, we claim it for ourselves as
well, releasing ourselves from the need for their approval, so we can
devote our energy toward more rewarding pursuits.
While approval from others is a nice
feeling, we can come to depend on it and lose our way on our own path.
There are those who will not like us no matter what we do, but that
doesn’t mean that there is anything wrong with us. Each of us has our own
filters built from our experiences over time. They may see in us
something that is merely a projection of their understanding, but we have
no control over the interpretations of others. The best we can do is to
hope that the role we play in the script of their lives is helpful to
them, and follow our own inner guidance with integrity.
As we reap the benefits of walking our
perfect paths, we grow to appreciate the feeling of fully being
ourselves. The need to have everyone like us will be replaced by the
exhilaration of discovering that we are attracting like-minded
individuals into our lives — people who like us because they understand
and appreciate the truth of who we are. We free ourselves from trying to
twist into shapes that will fit the spaces provided by others’ limited
understanding and gain a new sense of freedom, allowing us to expand into
exactly who we’re meant to be. And in doing what we know to be right for
us, we show others that they can do it too. When we co-create our lives
with the universe and its energy of pure potential, we transcend
limitations and empower ourselves to shine our unique light, fully and
freely.
