So Many Are Afraid Of Being Rejected By Others. Being Rejected Has Happened To Everyone. But This Does

So many are afraid of being rejected by others. Being rejected has happened to everyone. But this does not mean that you are lacking in some way if it has happened to you. If someone rejects you, they are acting out their own identity, whatever it is and they are revealing their own choices, their own needs. It has nothing to do with you. The important thing is that you act, that you express and reveal your self. Dare to assert your qualities of being. Dare to BE your self. This self expression of yours just take place or you will be restricting your use of life, you will be denying and thwarting the action of your self. When you are self aware, you are not concerned with being rejected. Your only concern is with the givingness of God as you. The fear of rejection merely says that you are trying to take, trying to get, without having really given in the first place. Many people deny the gift that they have to give because they fear it will not be accepted and then they may be humiliated. If others must agree with you for you to be happy, you will live a life of loneliness and frustration. Be self aware by releasing the reactions of others. Instead, put your full attention upon the presence of your total self and the expression of it. Let your only concern be for your eternal self-awareness and the expression of it. Surrender your desire to have others agree with you. They cannot. And they will not. They can only be themselves. Get busy with being YOUR self, the uniqueness that God is as you. Give it out. And do not look for a reward, even though it will be there. As you do this, the rewards come in great numbers and they do not seem like such miracles because they are natural outcome of what you are giving. They are true rewards, then, because they have no strings attached.

“What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!”

“If you love a person, you accept the total person. With all the defects. Because those defects are a part of the person. Never try to change a person you love, because the very effort to change says that you love half, and the other half of the person is not accepted. When you love, you simply love.”
