“The things which you find important, should be allowed to receive a place in your life. It’s not because others say, “You should be like this” or “that is what you should do” or “this is important for you”, that you should take this to heart. Because you might straighten out things yourself and not be understood by others and then end up in a kind of fight with yourself or with others, yet in fact this is not very significant. Try to be calm in your life concerning what is, what you have, what you do. And when you feel in your heart that you don’t want certain things, then don’t make this into an issue and think, “oh no, not again”. No, understand that there might be a deep reason in you not to do or want certain things.

Be honest with yourself innerly. It might be that this makes you take up a rock-solid position, but this doesn’t make a lot of difference. Because innerly you will feel that sometimes you indeed have to use force to make some things clear, in the first place for yourself, but also maybe towards others. Don’t be afraid of this. You might find certain issues difficult, but this doesn’t mean that your life should be difficult. It is good to be honest with yourself, to be calm towards others, to take up and work out your own responsibilities, and to dare to be loving to those people who are with you, around you, to indeed work out a number of things in a calm, righteous way and not only feel like you have to be the victim of everything which happens around you.

You will increasingly come into your inner strength and you will work out your desires. You will clearly feel “this is something which drives me, this is something good for me, and it makes me come closer to myself and take up a clearer stand in my life.” Some important things are possible, don’t worry about situations which mattered in the past, because you live nòw and you have to reach a bit of objectiveness now. Be good to people, but be happy with your life and know that balance will come in your life, your lives in any case. You don’t have to shy away from the things which are asked of you. When you feel in your heart that some things don’t agree with your life, then you don’t need to do them. And don’t think that you always have to be able to cope with everything. No, be honest with yourself and try to be calm wherever possible.” Master Morya
