Always see the good in people

There were a few situations recently that made me question my own instincts towards another person. I listened to what others were saying and wondered whether I had made the right decision. It wasn’t a long debate with myself by any means as I knew that I had listened to my heart when deciding to trust that person and very soon my Truth confirmed that by saying these words to me: “Always see the good in people”.

Too many of us live in fear. We are openly encouraged by the media to be scared, not to trust anyone, to see the bad all around us, to worry about our lives and our future. We are not inspired to think for ourselves, to see the good in the world, in other people and in ourselves. We are excellent at judging and being very hard not only on other people, but mainly on ourselves not realising how truly amazing, unlimited and unique we all are. Even those of us who do inner work, who are committed to being a change, far too often forget that there is a spark of Divine in everybody, including ourselves. No matter how dark a person’s thoughts or deeds are, how far they might have drifted into fear and negativity, they are and always will be a part of Source, of pure, unconditional, everlasting and all-encompassing love.

It is far too easy to write people off because they made mistakes, to lose faith in them and cut them out of our lives. It is important not to let people abuse you, however, fostering disappointment, frustration or hate, not being able to let go is not loving to yourself and will only lead you further away from who you really are, from love and happiness. Deciding never to go into another relationship because you got hurt, creating even more protective barriers around you will cause more fear, loneliness and mistrust.

If you have been hurt, are worried to trust again, do not know whether you can forgive, please remember that love is the greatest force there is. Love heals all. You do not have to go anywhere to find it, it is already in you. You are love. Forgiveness and sending love to another person helps both them and you. When you forgive, when you decide to trust again, when you open your heart, you activate a very powerful force in you and also draw energy back to you that was stuck in worry, hate, judgment, unworthiness or anger. That is a lot of energy available for you to create a new life for yourself, life filled with trust, faith, love, happiness and freedom.

Many years ago I decided to make love my priority and to see love in everything and everybody. Some days are easier than others, I make lots of mistakes but I am determined to learn from them. The more I practice sending love to others, the more love I feel and experience in my life and the more good I see in the world. When you go through life actively seeing the good in people, noticing the spark of the Divine that they themselves might not be aware of, not only something changes in them, but also in and around you. When you choose to see the good instead of the bad, everything in your life will start to change for the better. You will feel more happiness, trust and freedom and you will attract more loving people, experiences and events into your life as the more love you feel, the more love will come into your life.  

Countless people changed for the better because somebody believed in them, because they saw the good in them despite negative behaviours or deeds. Before judging another person it might be beneficial to remember that nobody who is truly happy and in love with themselves would hurt another on purpose. Many people are lost, they have been hurt, abandoned or betrayed and their actions are often motivated by fear, insecurity, pain, unworthiness and frustration.

Too many people are lost in negativity and fear and it is very important for those of us who know who we and others really are, to see the good in people, to see love in them, to send them love and in that way activate the Divine in them. We do not need to be physically with them to send them love. All of us are one, all of us are connected and so we can love another person into life from wherever we are.

When you are determined to see the good in yourself and other people, when you concentrate on love, the light in you is activated, your heart opens, you feel lighter, it is easier to breathe and the world becomes more friendly, safe, beautiful and loving 💜
