Uninvited Guests

Sometimes to be fair to ourselves, means appearing to be unfair to someone else.

Sometimes, our empathy and emotions create strife because they are at odds with our higher, intuitive self.

Have you ever known that you were in a good place, only to attract someone into your life who was in a bad place? The initial interaction can seem perfect, two souls clicking in a rare fashion, but on a deeper level you know that something isn’t quite right?

That sense may come from the fact that they occupy a non-space, and the pressure of that can be tremendous! Stresses grow when an object occupies a space that wasn’t there in the first place, cracks appear, the foundation shifts, and ultimately the whole structure falls.

This can be avoided if the intruder is removed before damage is done. However, sentiment, pride, and fear of loneliness often force us to stay in these situations until the damage is done. The intruder often is operating from a place of selfishness (this is what I want and I want it now), and the intruded upon from a place of pride (I am needed, I can handle anything because I am strong). Listen to your gut.

If you are finding a million reasons why it is not working despite the surface reasons why it should, then what you are in is not for you. Be fair to yourself, it is the only way you can be fair to others.
