Anyway, you say, we behave as the other person expects us to behave....which may be true to a point, although maybe not true to ourselves, because in that process, the point is, WE have already made an expectation of what we believe the other person would expect....do you see my point? So, maybe the answer is, do not expect anything, of yourself, or the other, give only the best of yourself, and receive the best back, unexpectedly. I was going to suggest imagining one 'awkward' person, to being a 'favourite' person, and treat them as if they were, and you are free to be you - but that may be an exercise to do or ignore, at your leisure. Jenny, why do you prefer to be like the others? You are perfectly you, appreciate them, for them BUT love you for being you, we are all meant to be different...maybe you see similarities in these people....the real similarity is you, meaning, you know them - that's what they have in common, and if they want you to be like them, then you don't need them, you need more time to be yourself, even by yourself...there you will naturally grow to be who you wish to be. 'A warrior of light doesn't care that to others at times he may appear mad.' 'We are all born different, and should do our uttermost to remain so.' Lovingly misquoting Paulo again. Love to you, Angel, thanking you. Love to all, always. xxxx Hi Jenny,
Your english is understandable enough, well done – I wish I had made the effort to understand another language, but the beauty of english is that I can recognize its roots in many other languages, so can understand written foreign words.

You are perfectly you, appreciate them, for them BUT love you for being you, we are all meant to be different…maybe you see similarities in these people….the real similarity is you, meaning, you know them – that’s what they have in common, and if they want you to be like them, then you don’t need them, you need more time to be yourself, even by yourself…there you will naturally grow to be who you wish to be.

Love to you, Angel, thanking you.

the eternal source of pain

we will be free if we learn to accept ourselves as we are, and then they accept us

we will be free if we establish peace between ourselves and the outer world, knowing that god created all creatures in a way to complete each other, even if they are opposites

my best regards to you
