Leaving Too Early?

Are you slow to let go?
Do you cling to the past?
Do you love challenges?
Do you stay too long?
             Or
Do you quit when things get tough?
Do you forget about the good in yesterday?
Do you avoid pain, challenge and work?
Are you willing to Love no matter what?

People learn to leave too soon when they want to avoid the work in relationships.
People may look for reasons and excuses to quit on what may be disappointing or difficult.
People may try relationships to see if others will quit on them and prove themselves right.
The ego seeks to replicate its past experiences to prove the beliefs it made up.

When a relationship is complete, lessons learned, appreciation given and received, we will move on.
If we leave before we have taken responsibility fully for our part in the misunderstandings and lack of trust, we will be incomplete and most certainly experience a similar in the future.

Life is not just a random happening, but rather a self-chosen plan formulated to expand our consciousness, our willingness to fully participate and take responsibility for our creative mind.

When we can see our own choices in thoughts, imaginings, emotions, reactions and responses as our own, we are conscious, clear, and at choice.
When we continue to view the world as happening to us, victims of others whims and failings, we continue to stay at the effect, confused and fearful.

To step into responsibility requires that we own fully what we choose to think and say and do, recognizing that everything has power.  Everything teaches others….even our silence and secrets.
To be responsible means we can see what is as it is without the distortion of emotionality.
To be responsible means we are able to respond in a healing and loving way to every act of lack.
To be responsible means that we love, trust and respect ourselves first and choose always peace.
To be responsible means we are willing to do what is highest and best for all concerned always.
To be responsible means that we care to leave every relationship and situation complete with blessing.
To be responsible means that we do not leave any relationship in fear, anger, blame or guilt.
To be responsible means we keep our word, assume nothing, give our best and take nothing personally.
To be responsible means we see that life’s happenings come  as we have called them to wake up.

I love us as we continue to mature in our willingness to take responsibility and stay until we are complete.
Peace is the key.
When we are peaceful with appreciation for all that is and was, we are complete.
Loving us all,

LOVEThere is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
No disease that enough love will not heal;
No door that enough love will not open;
No gulf that enough love will not bridge;
No wall that enough love will not throw down;
No sin that enough love will not redeem.

 It makes no difference
  how deeply seated may be the trouble,
How hopeless the outlook,
How muddled the tangle,
How great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.

 If only you could love enough, you would be the happiest
and most powerful being in the world.
