We Are One

We are one. You know people better when you open your mind. You can’t know people from a distance. If you want to know people, or you want people to know you, it is your responsibility to reach out to them. Don’t live in isolation. People want to meet you. But they cannot do it without your own consent. Open your mind to receive love, happiness, peace, joy, and care from other people. Why is that? Because we are one.

We are social animals. Human beings are not created to live alone. We are created to live together, to work together, to love together, to cry together, to mourn together, to study together, to party together, to travel together, to vote together. As philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin once said, “We are one, after all, you and I. Together we suffer, together exist, and forever will recreate each other.” Yes, will recreate each other. We are better when we do things together. We are better when we reach out to our friends. We are better when we love our enemies. We are better when we work together. For some people, it is not easy to connect. If that is the case, start with your family member. Go out and have fun with them. Don’t stay behind when they are doing things together. Pierre Tailhard de Chardin said, “The world is round so that friendship may encircle it.” Remember, “You get what you sow.” No more, no less.

You Must Let Go Of People Who Don’t Value You

You must let go of people who don’t value you. If you don’t let them go, they will continue to devalue you. You must tell people how to treat you. You must tell people what you want from them. You must tell people what you stand for. If you don’t tell them how you want to be treated, they will abuse you. They will mistreat you. They will never respect you. So if you don’t want it to happen to you, you must sail your ship. You must drive yourself. You must take charge of your life. If not, they will do it for you. And when they do, you will have nothing left to eat for lunch, let alone dinner.

If you have a friend who is a joke, let him or her go. Don’t hang out with aimless people. If you want to grow, you must look for people who are getting things done. If you don’t want to end up like your aimless friend, you must be in charge of your life.

Walking away from your aimless friend doesn’t mean you hate him or her; it means you love him or her. You respect him or her. You want your friend to do his or her thing. It means you respect yourself. If you don’t want to waste your time, you must let go of your aimless friends.

As the saying goes, “You are as good as your friends.” If you want to be successful, hang out with other successful people. If you want to be happier, hang out with other happy people. If you want to be smarter, hang out with other smart people. If you want to be a leader, you must follow a successful leader. It is not hard. You can do it. It depends on what your values are? If you know your values, you will know where to go. What are your values?
