Be Still

Blessed Greetings,
Interesting revelation yesterday. If you are still, they will reveal themself.

I was surprised to see that maybe people do or say things that they know will disrupt your peace.
Stealing my joy. However, I have chosen to take a different perspective on the matter.
Why do the things they do bother me? Is it because they are my employer and I need to work to support my family? Or is it because I see that their inexperience in certain things makes me a threat to thier position?
I have taken to take a different perspective, and realize that I cannot allow the things they do affect my joy. Why should I give them so much power? Very often in life whether it is client - contractor, employer - employee, or even lovers to lovers, we have to do things that we may not want to, but we have to in order to maintain something, could be peace, a job, or a paycheck, whatever it is, success depends on some level of flexibility. Nothing in life is guaranteed, we always have to navigate the path as it is revealed.
Loosen up, bend sometimes, just dont bend over. Everything has its limits. If you feel like someone is asking you to bend too much, be mature and respectful, but address the situation with tact, and facts. There are occasions where a level of mutual understanding cannot be reached, and the relationship must be dissolved.
God puts people in our life for a reason, I believe. Try to evaluate your situation, and learn from your experiences. Life is beautiful if you embrace it with peace, love, and understanding.
Bless.
B.
