We were each born with the ability to change someone’s life—in fact, many people’s lives. Although my blogs are largely focused on changing ourselves so we can have better lives, let’s look at how changing another is not that hard to do.
While many will say it’s impossible to change another, this is incorrect. If you’ve ever keenly observed someone during a conversation, you know this to be true. While the change might or might not be permanent, a change does occur. This happens in all our interactions. We change and others do as well.
Think about a time when you were hurt by another. Did it change you? Did it make you become a little more protective of your emotions? How about when your efforts were recognized? Didn’t your pride swell a bit, making you feel good? That’s a change, too. What about when you felt loved or witnessed the reaction of another to your love? Change occurred. Mutual hearts expanded. The same worked for others during these interactions. We’ve all hurt others and changed their perspectives, and we’ve changed their feelings with love and praise, too.
Change occurs over time. The impact of our actions might not be apparent at first. But upon repetition of any behavior, an impact is made. All our interactions have a cause and effect not only for ourselves but others as well.
Today is a good day to figure out ways to ensure the impact of our actions is positive, not just to benefit ourselves but all those around us as well. If we do this, before we know it, more good stuff will circulate, because that’s how energy flows.
We each have the ability to help channel anger and sadness into laughter and happiness. Although it’s the responsibility of each of us to change ourselves, we also still have opportunities to create a more positive flow of energy that can help change ourselves, others and the world around us for the better.
