ALLOWING OTHERS TO BE THEMSELVES … p. 105
We all know moments of disquiet in our personal relationships, be it family or otherwise, when things don’t go our way. Were we to go within and reflect on the matter, we could but conclude in all honesty that things are not always meant to go our way. Just as we are quick to rightfully assert our own individuality, so must we honour this in others. In so doing we achieve a hitherto unknown magnanimity of character, in essence a transformation to a higher, spiritually enlightened mode of thought. We instinctively know it is our moral duty to allow others to be themselves.
As is ever the case when we seek the Truth, Selflessness and Humility obtain. Truth’s revelation both frees and uplifts us: Life becomes so much more worthwhile.
