Expecting too much of the most promising among us. My Greatest Personal Failure. S. Loving
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-FWSym4O8g
My greatest personal
failing is expecting too much of the few promising souls that I've encountered
in my life. Never for a nano second was
this intentional, just like, who intentionally stomps on the foot of someone
they’re attempting to dance with? But it
may inflict no less pain as a consequence of it being unintentional.
Every promising soul
I've yet encountered I've expected too much of.
And when I say ‘expected
of,’ I do not mean in terms of thinking they are accountable to me; thinking
that they should consider what I think important. That's not the mistake.
But the mistake is
mis-estimating by me, that causes destructive levels of tension within the
individual and causes suboptimal use of time on my part. If I understand how fast a row of corn should
grow, that can be helpful because if I see it growing more slowly than it
should I have a chance of taking effective remedy, actions. But if my expectations are too high of that row
of corn, beyond what is possible, than my actions may well be destructive of
that row of corn; and result in the misuse of the time I've been given to serve.
That's the mistake that I’ve constantly
made.
I must become much
quicker at more frequently asking the questions of myself regarding the
promising individuals, should I ever encounter another one - what is their core
character? A question I so rarely, so
infrequently I’ve thought to ask myself of these others. Using the Personal Trainer, how can they be
evaluated. And, the newest question for
me and maybe the most promising is - to what degree are they ‘the rich young
man’ that there is something, anything, and if so what thing, will they choose above
the well-being of humanity, above their own soul, above their own joy, above
the well-being of creation?
If I can find within
myself enough love of others, of these promising others, to become better at
this, I'll do less damage to them, waste less of their time, and waste less of
the time that I've been given for the service of all humanity, and for the
service of all creation.
