The Getting is in the Giving

When we put our attention on our fellow actors there is no anxiety. That is once we've learned to see and accept that whatever they are doing is indeed what is happening. And what should be happening.
Of course this is reflexive.
In life I find it much easier to accept in others what I struggle to accept in myself. Putting my attention on others allows me the opportunity to be more forgiving of myself.
When I focus on what I can get or what I want, I soon get sick in the stomach.
When I focus on others I am free.
Or at least as free as I can be.
Is that free enough?
Am I good enough?
Me. Me. Me.
Yikes.
