Sure there are people who will think they know what’s best for you but at the end of the day, you and Creator are the only ones who truly know what is best for you. People will have something to say no matter what you do, so why not just do what makes you happy and let others sit with their negative energy.
Personally, I feel as if everyone wants to put in their two cents about how I choose to live my life. Assumptions and whispers because they haven’t a clue about my capabilities. I am learning as I get older not to let these people, whoever they may be, get under my skin. You may have a family member or someone close who feels like they have a say in your decisions, I often wondered why they felt the need to impose their opinion so much. I realized I haven’t done anything to feel shame or guilt, I’m just going on my own path and therefore, whatever control they had over me in the past is slowly dying off and they don’t like it. So, guilt-tripping, emotional manipulation and negative talk is all they have, simply grasping at straws to make sure I “keep in line” to their wishes. But it’s not about them, it hasn’t been about them in a long time and they need to come to terms with that and let it go.
With that, we need to learn to be brave and stand up for ourselves. Pray and let Creator guide you along the path that’s specifically for you. No matter what others say, you don’t live in a box, you are more than a job and bills. You are a living soul who was meant to experience life in all it’s wonder and sorrow. Now….live.
