Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
To follow our heart and our dreams, we must be independent of others. This does not mean abandoning others, but rather, not being influenced by their beliefs, attitudes, prejudices, and desires. We must be true to our own heart, no matter what others think or say.
Following our heart is not always the "accepted" way of being as it does not stem from "life as usual". The "norm" often means competition, the need to be admired, the craving for love, making choices based on pride, arrogance, anger, and jealousy, etc.
We can only find our way home and our own path by being independent of the influence and desires of others. The acceptance and unconditional love we need will not come from others, but from our own self. Our strength and power come not from others, but from within our own true self.
Today's Daily Inspiration is excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:
