Do not waste time and energy wishing you were elsewhere, doing something else. Accept your situation and realize that you are exactly where you are, doing what you are doing, for a precise reason. Become aware that nothing is by chance, that there are lessons for you to learn, and that the condition you find yourself in has been given to you so that you may learn these lessons as quickly as possible, enabling you to move forward and rise along your spiritual path.
Surely, you would not wish to find yourself in a dead end, however safe and protected it might seem! Think how dull and lacking in meaning life would be if you chose to live it that way.
Life is full of exciting events and promise, if only you are willing to move forward without fear into the unknown and take the next step in faith and absolute trust, with Me as your guide and companion on the journey.
Do not be afraid: I AM always with you.

The way people view you.
Sometimes I think about the different characters I play in everybody’s story.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m a terrible person in some people's narratives and a Godsend in others.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And none of it has anything to do with the person I truly am.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The lens that others view you through is coloured by their upbringing, beliefs, and individual experiences.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people see your bright personality as endearing and others see it as annoying.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people think you’re weak and emotional and others feel safe to be themselves around you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people think you’re rude and selfish and others respect the way you stand up for yourself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people admire the way you take pride in the way you look and others think you’re conceited.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And none of it has to do with who you truly are as a person.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What you have to understand is that you have no authority over how people view you so never try to control the way others see you because the only thing that truly matters when the dust settles down at the end of the day is what you genuinely see in yourself.
