ENGAGING IN RELATIONSHIPS - NOT IMPOSING

The Dream of the Planet can be as small as a dream shared between just two individuals or it can be as large as a dream shared amongst everyone in existence - and anywhere in between.

What constructs the Dream of the Planet? It starts with you and me…This relationship between us, however small it may be, is the dream called us. It happens when we interact with one another and the ideas, concepts, and agreements flow between us.

~ The Five Levels of Attachment

The Dream of the Planet is constructed by that need to share and communicate with one another. We either engage in a relationship based on respect, or we impose our own beliefs and ideals on each other disrespectfully, subjugating others to fir the mold.

Practice

Look at the relationships you have today with those at work, at home, and, most important, with yourself. Are you engaging in these relationships based on respect? Or are you attempting to impose your beliefs on others?

With awareness, say to yourself: “Today I choose to engage in my personal relationships instead of impose.”

Living a Life of Awareness
