'On bended knee is no way to be free' .....part 2

 To accept the unacceptable......

Accepting that loved one's get sick, or die....

Accepting that whatever you do 

is not bringing you the joy you seek....

Accepting that your 'parents/the government/teachers' 

make rules you have to follow and you don't like them....

Accepting that not all people are doing nice things....

Accepting that relationships are not always for life......

Accepting that children will follow their own path

even though you would still like to 'parent'.....

Accepting is being in the now....

Lots of times we forget to be there....

we live in the past

or live in the future....

If you look at kids,

you can learn how to be in the now.

They enjoy what they are doing,

and also enjoy the next thing they do

as much as the first thing.

They fight with friends

and make up and... 

are still best friends.

They live in the now...

no grudges, 

just Be,

Be happy and enjoy

others to be happy as well.

When we get older,

we live in the past....

often subconscious.....

We react from old emotions,

we get grudges,

we believe we have to proof ourselves

and DO to deserve happiness.....

We blame and shame ourselves,

feel quilty...

When I wrote this

it hit me:

we are so much more vulnerable than we realize

and so much more powerful as well....

We build 'walls' around our feelings

so we wouldn't be 'hurt' again....

so we could survive in the world we were born in.

Can we use this power for the 'adult us' as well?

Do we dare to let go of the walls

and use the tools of protection in a new way?

To heal.....let walls down

set boundaries,

let love and freedom in,

get back to 'the Now'...?

It is a decision

no one else can make...

only YOU.....

'just' be patient....

Can you decide 

to accept were you are now?

Accept the unacceptable?

Grieve, being compassionate, forgive

and by doing this,

Live.....?

There are many truths....

and it is important you find yours.....

If you don't live your truth,

you can not attract what you deserve....

If I look at all the floods,

I wonder how many emotions we are still 'trying' to keep inside....

Lot's of people are helping,

lot's of people are donating....

We are One....

If I see the reactions after the murder of the journalist in Holland,

I feel respect for this special man.

All the story's about the things he did behind the scenes,

how many people he helped and.....

stayed friends with....

All different kind of people....

the only thing they have in common:

honest people who needed help,

because there was injustice....

and he had the talent and determination

to 'fight' for them....

to investigate....

Can we do the same as with the floods:

being honest, being helpful,

not only for others,

but starting with ourselves?

Can we 'fight' for us,

investigate our emotions

and be 'free'.....

When someone asked this journalist 

how he wanted people to remember him 

after he would die, he said:

'That I was a good father....the rest is not important'....

Live in the now,

accepting what is,

smile when you can,

investigate both sides,

say sorry and thank you,

and decide....

Decide to live,

decide to trust,

and be alert

'I trust God, but I still will lock my bike'.....

is a Dutch saying...
