Whatever it is that we don’t like in another person, we don’t like in ourself. “You Spot It, You Got It.”
I was in a workshop with a woman that had something to say about almost everything the instructor was teaching us. By the fourth day, I found myself not only avoiding her, but feeling embarrassed for her, every time she raised her hand.
She’s a sweet woman and I really wanted some clarity around this embarrassment and irritation. It was a great opportunity for me to anchor in this idea of what we don’t like in someone, we don’t like in ourself.
I came to the awareness that I was embarrassed for her and irritated because I also have been loud, attention-getting and needy.
Most irritating behaviors are a byproduct of lack of self worth and self esteem.
By loving and excepting her, I am also loving and excepting that part in me.
I am grateful for her mirroring these self aspects to me so I can forgive my neediness and have appreciation for my growth in self love.
Awareness is key.
When we are no longer irritated by others, we are no longer irritated with ourself. When all we see is the Divine in others and ourself, we become masters at walking in love.
Today I pray that we love others period, and by doing so we are unconditionally loving ourself.
And so it is!
blessings & love,
Until next time, BE radiant, radical & real!
