THE SALTBURN RECOVERY CLUB
Respecting someone’s free will can be both devastating AND truly rewarding. When you let people go to decide for themselves, they may choose things that don’t match up with your desires. But every time this shattering of illusion has happened, it’s bringing me closer to the Truth. AND it’s brought me closer to Love. At the same time, when you let go and honour someone’s free will there is also the possibility that they will choose you; and when that happens you have begun to plant very strong roots for a relationship of recovery. Love is letting go because no one feels Loved when they are controlled or manipulated. No one really feels Loved when they can sense that someone is trying to take from them instead of give. There is a difference between taking and receiving. It’s important to be able to receive Love. But to try to drain others of their Love isn’t Loving – it’s being an emotional vampire. All this can be flipped and applies to YOU, too. You deserve to be with someone who Loves you right where you are. You deserve someone who is so connected to Love that they have the confidence to let you choose for yourself. You deserve to be in relationships where people are sharing from overflow rather than trying to be emotional vampires. Choose to hang with people who give you the respect to let you decide. And at the same time give those you Love this same respect. Rescues dont work, letting go does
