Imagine hating people for loving people. Imagine hating people for loving others, in the name of religion. Imagine…
I actually don’t have to imagine. When I used to do it, I felt completely justified. I felt that it was my obligation to hold people accountable to guide their lives by MY beliefs. What an idiot I once was. I really thought that judging others was righteous… even though it says it clearly in the book not to judge others….
I’m grateful that I’ve grown so much over the years. I’m grateful that I love others enough to listen and learn and allow the commonalities and recognition of our similarities to change my opinions. Because that’s all they were… opinions… I gained from other people’s opinions. But when I was presented with the facts, when I gained new information, I realized that the opinions didn’t stand up. They didn’t make sense, and I let them go.
I am so grateful that I chose to open my heart and mind, because I would’ve missed out on the most beautiful connections with amazing, beautiful, people of various spiritual beliefs, nationalities, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations and more.
I’m grateful that I now recognize that love is like water, it flows. We can attempt to block it, but it finds its way. And I now realize that some people take the limits off of love and allow it to flow. And as a person who’s centered in love, how could I ever hate someone for loving?
And that’s just how I feel about it. It’s okay to evolve and release beliefs and opinions that no longer feel aligned with who you are. And that’s what I will continue to do as I live a more aligned and authentic life.
Blessings!
