Rarely Elevated by Critiques

"If we feel secure in the depths of our heart,

We shall not challenge anybody for inner confidence,"

Sri Chinmoy

THE WINGS OF JOY: FINDING YOUR PATH TO INNER PEACE

When we are comfortable in our own skin, those who surround us rarely annoy us.  They might nudge us a little by his or her behavior, but we find it to be humorous without the need to judge.  If our confidence needs a boost, we are rarely elevated by the critiques of others.  True confirmation of the spirit resides within our very soul.

Asking others for information is a good thing, but we must weigh it carefully to understand if it resonates for our lovely self.  Does it inspire, motivate, and encourage us?  At times we can catch a glimpse of an unique approach we can remodel to  fit our particular needs.

Who we are or who we yearn to be needs to be based on our true nature, passion, and assertiveness.  Acknowledging and supporting our talents and gifts points us in the right direction.  We must fuel our fire to build passion to see us through the other side of doubt and fear.  As we assert ourselves, we become even more empowered to find our authentic path leading to a purposeful life.
