What principles define how you live?

There are a few principles that I live by. Being an empath I always try to put myself in other people shoes since I can kinda sense and even feel where they’re coming from better than they realize.

Also, I believe in the golden rule, do onto others as you’d want them to do on you. And also even if they don’t, I try to turn the other cheek and be the bigger person which isn’t always easy.

I’m trying to learn how to not react and put space between me and my emotions. It’s a big challenge and it’s gonna take time. I’m still working on it. As people say things and do things that hurt us we tend to want to react which is a knee-jerk deal. I’d rather take pause and realize where things are coming from and not taking things so hard.

Another big one for me is that it starts and ends with us. We make bad choices and we pay for them. Those are our fault so we’re not victims take control of what’s happened in our lives and realize where things came from and find peace ultimately grace in the lessons. Don’t get me wrong. Those have done wrong to us their responsibility for their actions, but we also bare responsibility for allowing them to do it and putting them in a physician to do it.

As always, thank you for reading…
