On healing self!

On healing self!

All the scriptures, all the quotes, all the religions and all the healing is based on love. It asks you to serve others, to be selfless and to give yourself to others. In the urgency of healing 'self' we turn passionately, blindly and recklessly into healing and reaching out to others. It is good. It is what needs to be done finally too! But in the mean time, you need to check your own battery too. If you are drained of yourself which of you can you give to others. Where from would you give to others? You need to replenish yourself once in a while to be able to give again, to be of use to others again.

In that process, it is possible it may happen that you are forced to overlook taking care of certain people and their needs. You need to live to give! So, move away from people and get connected to yourself. Move away from 'what is expected of you' and deal with yourself and heal yourself. You may have to 'sacrifice hundred lives' in this process, but remember to save a lakh when you come back!

It's ok to protect self, to heal self, to stop being there for others for a greater cause of wanting to be available for lot more people than those who need you now! There are people around 'these people' to take care of them. They may not do that - well, that would be a different story and their lost opportunity. But you are not here to look after every person who crosses your path! 

You can sacrifice looking after few to tend to thousands! Let go off lower responsibilities if need be if you are to work on greater jobs that benefit larger group!
