Give Without Expectation

The greatest gift that you can give another is the space to grow and thrive.

“Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.”    
~Kahlil Gibran~

How empowering it is to walk through the world without expectation. Each moment becomes an expression of kindness and compassion with no thought of need or attachment to outcomes. Simple pleasures are met with gratitude and appreciation and experienced with a sense of well-being.

When there is no desire that anything be any different than it appears, we create an opportunity to see life more clearly. Energy is not wasted on trying to change what is, nor is it focused on manipulating some future moment to be what the mind thinks it should be.

Let your interactions come from a place of complete acceptance and watch how they unfold. When others feel safe in your presence, they will be able to explore the present moment without defensiveness. The greatest gift that you can give another is the space to be authentic, and ultimately, this comes from finding authenticity within yourself.
