Homesick

THEY: Would you join our community?

I: I tried and I can't I am already homesick.

THEY: How can you be homesick?

I: Well, don't get me wrong, you are lovely people but your food is too greasy and full of meat and it is making me sick..you are probably not getting sick cos you use to it, you have a belly protection. then you are bullies when I do not agree with you, you look down on me and keep asking me ' why and who do you think you are? You are wasteful, yet thoughtful and not politically engaged. You have created a bubble which is not in phase with the world.

THEY: Who do you think I am? Do you think you are better?

I: I am not better. I am different and I can't let go of those differences just to fit in your practices...I'll creates my own community using your model with people who share the same values and attitudes as me...

Time to listen

Sometimes our own perspective on life may get in the way of what we understand when others speaks. Pause, breathe and really listen. You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal. So what to do, Pause, breathe, ask further questions before sharing an informed answer based on fact and not your own imagination

Are we good friend?

A friend came to visit. She brought flowers and a card. Inside the card, she wrote that I was an amazing friend. To her, at least. It is normal to question yourself on the quality of your friendship and whether or not  you are a good friend to other people, are you doing enough to engage, support, celebrate others when they go through major transition? How much more can you do while racing through life, its responsibilities and distractions? A good tool to use for reflection is the theory of attachment to understand yourself and how your type of attachement impact on the quality of relationships. Have a look and let me know what you think?
