192. help others…

We’re all here for various reasons, but one of those is to help others know themselves, to help them feel. To be a spark in their darkness. To be a key in unlocking a part that lay suppressed, or unrecognized. We’re here to take their hand and help them uncover their capabilities, and possibly discover a new way to look at the world.

It isn’t a lack of capacity that keeps us from being able to unlock certain emotions within ourselves, but more to the fact that we don’t know our true potential, until we can be shown. We all possess the capacity to feel, love, and express our emotions, yet many of us fail to do so because we are unable to get out of our own way. We stay locked into a certain way of communicating and relating to others because we cannot see the world beyond the limitations of our perspective. It’s all we know. Not until someone comes along with enough influence, finding a way inside our mind, can we begin to see things differently. 

So, the people that enter our lives are there for a reason, if for nothing else other than to provide a new perspective. They help us to see the world a little differently, and if we’re lucky will completely turn our world upside down.
