Daily Inspiration - Live and let live

Live and let live.

It's easy to confuse someone else's unhappiness for your own. But, taking on another's pain can harm you. You can show compassion to others, but let them live their own lives and feel their own feelings. That is how they will grow as human beings.

It's your job to live your life, and feel your own feelings. That is how you will grow as a human being. Neglecting yourself will not help others in the long run.

Action for the day: Are you allowing someone else's problems or feelings to get in the way of your sense of well being? Today, when you begin to feel too much for others, send a heart-felt prayer up for them, and then return your focus to your own critical needs.
