How
Did Your Parents Show You Love?
How
you receive Love is how you learned to receive Love.
If you never felt
Loved, it will be difficult to let love in.
If you received love
thru criticism and discipline, you may attract criticism.
Our tendency is to
believe in the ways we were loved, taught and appreciated.
It
helps to be aware of your early experiences to better understand what we
currently experience.
Our awareness allows
us to better change what is not longer good for us.
What we are fully
aware of without judgment, we can choose to change.
What we judge as
good or bad, we tend to get stuck with believing and seeking.
We
learn to love, teach, criticize and appreciate others the ways we were parented.
When we realize our
parents also follow what their parents did for them, we can forgive.
When we understand
we are the generation who can affect positive change, we choose again.
When willing to
relinquish our habitual behavior and past programming, we can change our
future.
Our
most early experiences program us to feel and relate with others in familiar
ways.
We expect what we
are accustomed to.
Even with what seems
limiting or negative, our expectation becomes what we do or attract others to
do.
We may try to create
something different but unconsciously attract the same.
Parents
what to give their best and improve on their parents.
However, when tired,
hungry, impatient or negative, we often fall into old familiar patterns.
To change what was
growing up requires staying awake and aware.
To give our children
and partners our best calls us to use our conscious to heal the past.
You
may have noticed that you tend to dump your worst stuff on your family.
You may have
realized that you are talking and behaving like one or both parents.
You may have
recognized the more you try to be different, the more you find repeating
behavior.
It is essential to
forgive, delete, undo and change your bad habits and unconscious reactions.
We
spend time with grandchildren often and show parents and children love, trust,
respect and appreciation.
I am always
observing what parents seems to need and how they raise their kids.
I see the ways we
program kids and how they talk and behave by how we treat and speak to them.
Without neutral
observation, we may not even notice the script we write and perpetuate within
families.
Ask
yourself what you believe the job of parenting really is.
Notice what you want
as a child and now as an adult from people who “love” you.
Pay attention to
what you would change or delete from your childhood.
Choose to delete
these experiences from what you give to those in your family now.
Yes,
more conscious and respectful interaction is beneficial to all.
Yes, remove yourself
from upsetting or negative experiences until you are calm and clear.
Yes, give yourself
the opportunity to forgive yourself for limiting or hurting those you love.
Yes, love yourself
by affirming, giving, supporting and encouraging you always to believe in
you.
You
can change your loving relationships with yourself and others every day in
every way.
Loving you as I love
myself,
Betty Lue
Simply forgive
them for not know a better way to love, trust, respect and believe in You.
And forgive
yourself for forgetting to love trust, respect and believe in YOU!
This
can change your life!!
