The power we ALWAYS have is to simply withdraw.
More and more as I age, I find that simply withdrawing my energy from an interaction (with ANYONE) that isn't going some place positive is likely my best move. If I am not contributing to your journey, nor you to mine, then isn't it better that we not travel together? No "relationship", familial or otherwise, is more valuable than the sanctity or nobility of my journey's purpose.
I don't waste time regretting either! I can't control the other's motivations or aspirations and I usually can't understand them. They likely feel the same about me. So where's the point in continuing the engagement?
As I "move on", I wish PEACE to all: supporters, detractors, lovers, haters, it doesn't matter. PEACE is the ultimate gift. Our maker endows us with the means to find it.
Whether or not we do; that's up to each of us.
PEACE...
These are the musings of a 30-year Flight Attendant for one of the world's largest commercial airlines. Topics are varied and can cover everything from layovers to passenger etiquette to interesting insights into the airline industry to the state of the human condition in the 21st century. All are offered from my unique "eye in the sky" perspective and all with a decidedly POSITIVE, LIFE-AFFIRMING twist!
