Inspirational
Reflection sessions and BYM course has been like a guiding light for me. There
were few significant aspects of myself that I was ignoring earlier. I used to
become sad about the trival situations easily and used to overthink about them,
which also includes the behaviour of others which were not in my control
completely and the times when I used to take charge of others behaviour and
wanted to control or change them. I used to call myself as a very emotional
person who is easily cried. The point of blame for being so emotional and for
my sadness or worries was usually used to be on the outer situations, others or
I used to criticize myself for anything. I was mostly critical and unkind in my
thoughts for self with a desire to be better, but less efforts manifesting
through my actions, it was like pointing an index finger outwards, and ignoring
the orientation of four fingers inwards.
After the course
and regularly attending inspirational sessions, my focus is gradually shifted
to my inner self. Now, I acknowledge myself, my emotions, nurture myself and my
soul. I focus more on what is in my control, and the acceptance that I cannot
change the behaviour of others completely, but I can change how I respond to
them, and understanding that, seeing my responses, they might or might not
decide to change their behaviours. I have learned to become calmer each day by
creating the pause between the external situation and my response to it.
Definitely, I am not able to do it all the time, but yes the awareness has
substituted the ignorance most of the times. This Guiding light fills me with
love, joy, peace, empathy, confidence and empowers me.
It has taught me to
love myself and to spread love to others irrespective of who they are. My
life-self or the voice of heart is now becoming the guiding light to choose my
actions.
Everything seems
beautiful and full of love with the journey of Loving Life and Befriend your
mind course.
