Life is a Game of Boomerangs

before you think, do, or say anything -- imagine what it would be like to receive what you are sending . Florence Schovel Shinn


 I posted a comment on Instagram today, and there were some comments about, particularly that it it was judgemental and condesending. I thought about that for a moment and then I said to myself
"Self, you know what?, that was so not your intention so leave that alone"
I received some comments about it and started to answer it, granted I got a tad bit frustrated as well because I honestly was not intending to hurt harm be judgemental or all of the above. In the end I deduced that people interpret things based on their experiences and beliefs, if they do not have the opportunity to ask questions then they run with that interpretation. I am now okay with that. I am okay with it knowing what my intentions are. There is no way that we can please everyone- can I just repeat that for my own eyes?There is no way that we can please everyone!
And there is no way that I can respond to everyone's comments and questions nor should I!Accepting my intentions and owning the responsibility for what I put out is the most that I can doDetachment from the outcome also helps!
So the next time people interpret what you say and what you do and comes back with fire or a totally out of timing negative response, ask yourself
What were my intentions?Do I take responsibility and own what I believe?Am I taking this response personally?
The answers to that will pull you forward!Peace
