How do you define change? Is it what we see in others? Is it what we feel? Do we need to see in detail how someone has changed to really define it as such? Do we just believe that somebody has changed by their word? Is it what you hear? What u feel? What you know?
I think change is different for everyone and like a lot of things you cant fully define it. Its not up to somebody to change for you but its not also up to you to try and make somebody change for you. Only thing that is up to us is holding ourselves accountable and doing our part. Focusing ur energy on somebody else by making them change or by changing for them is never something that will end well because misplacing your energy hurts the human spirit. I think its always good to give without keeping score its always good to create and love, but giving ur energy out for someone else when it has to do with their spirit and soul wont end up good. You cannot change someones character inside of them, you can see external change, you can see words, maybe even some actions but if someones character someones inner self is not there too, it wont end well. I think about it a lot, where goes the line between giving out your energy in a hurtful tiring manner rather than giving it out of love and kindness? I think the line gets crossed when you stop giving out of love and support and instead you start to give ur energy out of desperation. Either selfish desperation like wanting to be loved or attention, or desperation out of wanting that person to be better because you care for them and love them. But some people dont want to be helped. Theyll only change on their own terms and in their own time and ithink thats how it is for everyone. Everyone only grows on their own terms, they can put it onto somebody else they can say its because of this and that but at the end of the day its themselves. Other people other things can be motivation but nothing will genuinely change someones inner self except themselves. Friends, partners, love, jobs, money, safety, trauma, school, life changes, somebody special, somebody important, music, drugs, wants, needs, all these things can make or break, help or hurt. They will affect your direction where your inner self will go and they will help external things, theyll support or slow it down but the ONLY thing that has full direct impact on your change is you.
Youre the only thing that can directly affect your inner self. Everything else is just something that directs you. But at the end of the day you are all alone with your own change, growth and energy. You will always be alone with yourself, everybody on this earth is alone with themselves. Everything else is just direction and filler. I think thats a beautiful thing. Its nice to know everybody is alone with themselves all the time. Everyone can tap into themselves however they want. But its also scary how everyone is alone with themselves but some people go their whole lives not knowing themselves. But thats them, and that u cant change. Its up to you how you live your life. I think living and being human starts when you start to realize ur all alone, even if ur with people or with distraction 247, ur always alone in ur head w urself, nobody can ever get into your head fully like you can. Not in a negative depressing way though just in a way where u think Wow I really am myself, i really am alone, i choose who i am where i go, who im with. And i think thats where friendships and love come into place. Theyre truly genuine and real once you realize youre you and youre alone. you could not want anybody around you or want anybody, but once youre alone with yourself you establish what you genuinely want for yourself. And thats why ithink the human spirit being a lonely one isnt a necessarily a bad thing. We will always be alone with our own selves but with that we can get curious about what we want to do, who we want, who we are. The more we tap into ourselves the more genuine well placed energy this world would have, and things would be better. Maybe things would be different in alot of ways. It does get into my head sometimes, because things could be so good. And it can really hurt knowing i cant control someones inner self. Its always up to them, just like how mine is up to me. You can make someone better but someones soul is theirs. The only thing that humans fully own for themselves is their own soul. But u can lose that too by misplacing yourself and your energy. But you learn, through mistakes and through life you learn your inner self. Youll learn yourself. Only you will know fully who you are. Take advantage of that lonely feeling, its not a bad thing to be alone and to realize loneliness is something we steer away from because of fear. If we were to just realize being alone with your soul isnt bad because thats the closest you will get to the universe something you cant even explain. Its the most valuable thing about you so take care of it like you would take care of someone you love. While loving your inner self you can love others, be real with others.
Accept the lonely of the soul (yourself, the internal) but embrace the beauty of the heart (the external).
Long one again sorry...LOL ithink alot..)
