CONTROL:
~
If we reach out and try to force someone to give us what we believe
he or she holds, we will be disappointed. We will discover that it is an
illusion. The person didn't hold it.
In those moments when we are trying to reach out and force
someone to stop our pain and create our joy, if we can find the
courage to stop flailing about and instead stand still and deal with
our issues, we will find our happiness.
Yes, it is true that if someone steps on our foot, he or she is hurting
us and therefore holds the power to stop our pain by removing his
or her foot. But the pain is still ours. And so is the responsibility to
tell someone to stop stepping on our feet.
Healing will come when we're aware of how we attempt to use
others to stop our pain and create our happiness. We will receive
insights that can change the course of our relationships.
We will see that, all along, our happiness and our well-being have
been in our hands.
