ON OUR BEHALF:
It is so easy to come to the defense of
others. How clear it is when others
are being used, controlled,
manipulated, or abused, It is so easy
to fight their battles, become
righteously indignant, rally to their
aid, and spur them on to victory.
"You have rights," we tell them.
"And those rights are being violated.
Stand up for yourself, without guilt."
Why is it so hard, then, for us to rally
to our own behalf? Why can't we see
when we are being used, victimized,
lied to, manipulated, or otherwise
violated? Why is it so difficult for us
to stand up for ourselves?
There are times in life when we can
walk a gentle, loving path. There are
times, however, when we need to
stand up for ourselves – when
walking the gentle, loving path puts
us deeper into the hands of those
who could mistreat us.
Some days, the lesson we're to be
learning and practicing is one of
setting boundaries. Some days, the
lesson we're learning is that of
fighting for ourselves and our own
rights.
