The ReleaseWritten by Heather J. Tait
Some people choose to live life differently from that of ourselves. This goes for children, adults, and people in general. Sometimes this doesn't always leave a lot of room for compromise especially if it is a loved one that chooses a different path. Like every path, it is composed of choice, both positive and negative. Some people choose to live honest good lives and some people choose to be self destructive and confined to their own self will. Regardless, it is their choice and their decision to live way they want. What if you see someone's path headed for a dead end? Well you can at first bring this to their attention if they wish for your opinion. But after that, they are really on their own and only thing you can do is let them discover consequence for themselves. Sometimes more action is required on your own part especially if their destructive behavior begins to affect your personal well being. In this instance you have two choices, either participate or not. Perhaps it is considered easier to participate being that you don't have to address conflict head on. Many people choose this way of thinking and suffer emotional turmoil that comes along with it. We can't always have our hands on strings of another's life, keeping them from falling to ground. Sometimes that very behavior in itself prolongs our loved ones agony, because they never reach their bottom, and never recognize their mistake.

What great rewards we can receive when we let life guide us on our path to purpose. Moments and situations seem to flow with a distinct pattern and insight without force of our own hands. What powerful occurrences take place when we simply stop to allow them to. It is wave we ride, not go against. Allowing life to happen doesn’t mean we are to take no action at all. In fact opposite is said to be true. There is always footwork to be done. We have to meet life half way. The effort you put into yourself and world around you is what will essentially be returned to you. We have to recognize opportunity and then if it is fitting to our path, we can then work to obtain it. Allowing life to unfold means we are creating adequate space for life to breathe on its own terms. Soon we discover that we are surrounded by appropriate people at appropriate times. People, places, and things become almost precisely placed in our lives almost like actors and props in a play. We have ability to embrace these moments and people and take with us lessons we have learned.
