The Love & Kindess Strategy

Someone I love was having a very hard time and I didn’t know how to ease their suffering, or if I even could. And I wanted to. And it was appropriate for me in this relationship to get involved.

So I got on it - the external and the internal pieces.

First, I went for the external solutions. The external pieces were not very susceptible to change. Next, I went directly to shifting the internal pieces for this person. He did not want to budge.

I poured on more love and appreciation towards the person. It loosened up their mental muscles, created an opening for feeling better, and a new level of comfort descended like magic.

Please help me remember this love & kindness strategy for all my prickly situations.

I’m gonna keep going.
