We have all been taught to sympathize and feel sorry for our fellow humans
that are in distress.
Have you noticed how you feel when you're sitting
with someone going over their troubles and you start to relate and
sympathize?
As you connect and relate with the other, you start to feel just as
down as they are.
Sympathy just reinforces the Beliefs
and Stories making the situation feel more real.
Rather than moving the person out of that creation, sympathy only
reinforces the creation making it larger and more real.
A belief in being a victim is one of the most difficult places to move
out of.
We get so much attention and sympathy from others when we are a victim,
why would we want to change our story.
What if we could see the person separate from their story and perceived
problems. See the person for who they really are, not for who they think
they are.
Look at them from admiration and appreciation for the wonderful human
being they are.
Most of us don't realize how much more work and creativity it takes to
create a little chaos. Admire the creativity it took the person to create
the situation they are experiencing.
From a place of admiration and appreciation it is much easier to assist
someone in creating a new experience.
