them in fear with our own fear is not helpful.<br />

Meeting their fear with your unconditional love<br />

and being a compassionate witness allows<br />

them to feel heard, seen, and understood and<br />

at the same time allows us to hold the high<br />

note and stand strong in the energy of love.<br />

My responsibility is not to save the world<br />

anymore. I support those I am meant to<br />

support and free everyone else to live their life.<br />

Today, I do my best to see everyone through<br />

the lens of love. I honour where they are and<br />

accept that some are willing to heal and some<br />

are not. The difference from the way I used to<br />

be is I now see everyone as capable. I see<br />

everyone’s potential and I focus on that without<br />

attachment.<br />

I know that beyond their fear is all the love they<br />

could ever need or ever ask for. We all have<br />

access to that love. Some will turn toward the<br />

love and say YES and others will turn away from<br />

it and say no. I accept and honour them either<br />

way. I love them just the same. Now that<br />

doesn’t mean I devote my time and energy<br />

trying to help them all. I simply love them and I<br />

trust my heart to lead me. Either I will guide<br />

them or I won't.<br />

My responsibility is not to save the world<br />

anymore. I support those I am meant to<br />

support and free everyone else to live their life.<br />

I trust I will work with those I am meant to or<br />

they will find someone else. The pressure is off<br />

my shoulders because I took it off. The burden<br />

is no longer mine to carry because I put it<br />

down. I no longer care too much, but I have<br />

learned to love deeply without attachment and<br />

that has been the biggest gift I could have ever<br />

given myself and the world.<br />

Gift yourself or a friend a copy<br />
