COMMUNITY LIFE

How good it is to stir one another up to perfection. Perfect love does not focus on the weakness of the other person but his strength. When you love yourself then you will see others as lovable. When you hate yourself then you will look for reasons to hate others. All we see is a reflection of how we see ourselves. We see others from our perspective. When you are able to see others as they see themselves then a paradigm shift occurs. When others yell at you or are nasty to you they display how they are feeling about themselves. You happen to be the sounding board for the other person. So don’t take it personally. This is why community is so important. In community one is able to take the good and the bad. There is balance in community. When you are on your own, then the only perspective you have is one, yours. When in community you can see from multiple perspectives and this then enables you to see a situation in a whole different and maybe more realistic light. This is why it is good to consult with many and create a balanced view. This may sound tedious but it is in this process that a project is refined and all the nuts and bolts are well screwed on for success. When dictators rule, they rule through force of personality or fear and loose the perspective of the common man.
