Are You Feeling Rejected?

Greetings – Sunday – November 14th., 2010
I am available today until 2pm., pacific & then again
this evening between 6pm & 11pm., pacific.

Today is about communion & compassion, yet, have you ever attempted to experience communion with someone who perhaps didn’t want to experience same with you? What about compassion—have you ever exhibited compassion for someone, only to be ridiculed for reaching out, offending them or told you were patronizing them?

Their behaviors are not about you. What these people are feeling is inferior in someway, perhaps they feel as though they just don’t measure up. ‘In their eyes’, they feel unworthy of love, kindness or support. Their low self esteem refuses help, kindness, care or consideration even at the basic levels of existence. 

When this happens in your life to someone you love, the best course of action is to be still, meditate/pray & leave them alone, giving them to God. If you try to assert yourself, or push yourself on them in anyway, they will only retreat, inadvertently causing you to feel the sting of rejection, simply because they do not appreciate, want, desire, or value
your reaching out to them in any way, and this of course, hurts your feelings—-because you love them so much, and want to help them.

Feeling rejected or dismissed by a person whom you love, whether it’s your partner, spouse, child, grandchild, sibling —-even a friend, it doesn’t matter the type of relationship—-what matters is that you love this person, and it hurts.

When you love someone, and they push you away, by choosing to  disrespect, dishonor, or refuse your kindness, or refusing to allow you to help them, but rather reject anything & everything you do to try to help them, is indeed, for you the person reaching out, emotionally disheartening. STOP… just STOP. It’s time to walk away, it’s time to think about yourself. Self preservation is important.

Today is one of those days, where if you are facing this type of issue with a person whom you love—–just ‘STOP’ for a moment, and take a deep breath, giving them & your entire situation a ‘rest’ and giving it all to God. We can lead a horse to water, but we cannot make him drink.

Therefore, set your boundaries for yourself, in this situation, and then make a choice to step back and return to your own life and to the things in your life that you can control.

If you are dealing with relational issues today that you don’t know how to handle,  or who to turn to and need guidance on the best course of action, call me, let’s talk.
