RE: The Master's wisdom # 9 – Be alone, with yourself only, until love comes.
How sad it is for me to see people chasing love, but to no avail.
It’s sad to say but I’m just realizing that, it’s my responsibility to make myself happy. For years I’ve been in different relationship looking for happiness.
I will often find myself getting in huge arguments with my partner, telling her that she don’t know how to make me happy. Not realizing it wasn’t her responsibility. Now”IM” TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE “ME”…HAPPY!
We cannot let our happiness depend on others. We can love them, support them and get supported in return. But ultimately our happiness depends upon ourselves, in a relationship or not!
Be alone, with yourself only, until love comes.
I have so often seen people who are terrified of being alone. They’d rather stay in a soul sucking bad relationship than face being alone. As my friend said, it’s a distraction from existential despair. It’s feels so good when I see someone take the risk to make the changes and then discover how wonderful it can be to find happiness in solitude (which does not mean lonely). I am on the same path after realizing the truth. I have a girlfriend but after all the past experiences it's just different. If I am with her I am totally with her and If I am alone I am in solitude, enjoying my own company.
I Love this ♥️
And I love the way you are simplifying the complicated idea of our existence and presenting in front of us. You are a very wise man who communicates these ideas so well and keep them straightforward. Keep them coming!
