Understanding

This morning’s meditation.

Understanding.

I used to think that knowing everything was understanding.

In fact, I was so desperate to at least sound like I knew everything I would make up shit just to try and sound smart.

I also thought I knew why each person behaved as they did, based on what I assumed about them and my stereotypes of people.

This type of judging moved me away from people until I was eventually alone.

That was what I needed to gain a willingness to change.

Today I allow myself the opportunities to get to know people and to gain an understanding of each being as they are in my life at that moment.

Today I practice acceptance and appreciation towards all beings with the intention of understanding,

Today I get to live in freedom, and I choose to particpate in life with happiness and joy.

May each of you find your style of understanding.

You are Loved.
