“Seeing things through the eyes of others creates a vision within that illuminates the vision of what was… and allows you to let go of anger and blame because you are seeing what the other person sees.”
When we feel betrayed or hurt by another person’s actions, our pain can distort our thoughts into reacting with anger, revenge or hate…but if we can stop and look at the situation through the eyes of the persons actions, we will see that their perception, past pain and ego have a different vision and your vision of them will no longer hurt.
When you can see past the surface of what appears to be… the eyes of your heart see the depth of one’s actions, and your vision is filled with understanding instead of a reaction.
~ WOW~
So true…
Many thanks
I like to refer to this as ‘looking past one’s behaviour to see the emotional pain that is at the root of their behaviour. This takes strength of character. Excellent blog!
Beautifully worded!
Yes, true. Something that has helped me immensely was one of the 4 agreements – Don’t take anything personally – Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. This really changed how i see the world.
I read that book many years ago, great book… Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Not taking things personal is something all of us face and it gets easier the more you see it through the eyes of those speaking to you.
