Love encourages
Love is about personal responsibility and improving ourselves rather than demanding more from others.
When we expect others to fulfill our hopes and make us happy we create unrealistic expectations which can only lead to disappointment. The more expectations we have of others the more they are likely to fail us. But choosing to live by encouragement instead of expectation we shift in a way that benefits everyone.
Love puts our focus on personal responsibility and improving ourselves instead if demanding more from others.
I’ve learned the more I work on myself and encourage others, the more peace I have, I am not full of anger or resentment because someone didn’t do what I thought they should do.
No matter how hard I try, in the end the only person I have any control over is myself. So if on a daily basis I let go of expectations, work on myself and become an encourager of others, I not only find peace in my life, but I help others do the same.
Until next time…
