Recent random thoughts:
-I waste so much of my energy on being negative. I expect too much from people and get disappointed when they don't deliver. I get so hung up on the fear of people betraying me, mistreating me, taking advantage of me. When I realize that all this comes from my own self-entitlement, it feels...so liberating. I am free from my expectations. People don't owe me anything. I am free to treat people with kindness because I want to, not because I need anything from them. The power is in giving, not taking.
-Being less dependent/attached to a certain outcome/needy. It's all an illusion in my mind that I have to depend on anything. There is always another option.
-Accepting that I am ashamed of what I want. I will have to decide whether to let go of the shame or of the thing I want.
