Just love them đź’•

I know you may not have the drive right now, you don’t have the want to do it but I still love you

——-

That’s all we can do

Love them

They are not you

They will not be into the same things you were

They might not be the player you want them to be….just love them

They are not trying like you know they can

Giving it all like you’ve seen them do

before (cuz you’ve seen their potential)

This is a blip

This is a game

This is a moment in time….I could either think of all the things not… or just love them for being here. Doing. Trying. Existing

It will happen for them in their own time when they decide they want too

(( let go, I can’t force it))

(So why am I? Why turning this into my failure, a way I haven’t done something right by them

It’s not mine ((let go))

I am not in control

This is them and I just need to love them.

They are little people all their own

Little spirits floating in time

Little loves

They are doing their now moment best

And that’s good.

That’s love

And I love them.

On the soccer field, you can’t help but notice how you children perform in a game. See where they could be running more, not twirling their hair, getting into the game.

That’s it, you can’t make someone into something they:

  1. Aren’t ready for

  2. Haven’t decided they want to do

  3. Have their own fears about - it’s a good tester of insecurity. If your not confident in your abilities on the field… your gonna have the ball taken away, you’ll hesitate, you’ll be slowly second guessing.

Bottom line- You can’t make someone try (even god can’t make people try).  Sure you could try to motivate them, bribe them with money or rewards

But deep down, they won’t try unless THEY decide to. And that’s okay. Don’t you want that amnesty too? That authority to choose your path of what you do or do not do.

That’s where we are going anyway, giving up the paradigm of people pleasing to truly please and honor our self/spirit.
