We often set ourselves up for disappointment by writing scripts for other people to follow. We expect them to react, give, and love exactly the way we do. But true freedom comes when we toss out the script. When you learn to accept people exactly as they are - and give without keeping a scorecard - the world gets a lot quieter. It feels a bit like finding a peaceful, hidden clearing in a dense forest. Just like a favorite old playlist on a classic device, life becomes much sweeter when you just let it play through without constantly trying to skip the tracks you can't control. 🌲✨ Give freely. Love unconditionally. Expect less.
