We are all connected. Separation is an illusion. Everything and everyone is one. Your stress and anxiety are creating a sense of fogginess so that you are blind to this fact.
The feeling of separation is what gives you anxiety. What all uncomfortable situations come down to is the idea that you aren't supported and the universe is random. If you embody the idea that other people are totally separate and unrelated to you as a being, then there is no connection and therefore only fear. The world is a scary place if you're just on your own and you don't matter to the rest of existence.
I've been there. I know what it feels like to feel so much fear about life that I have to take drastic measures to ensure that "bad" people don't ruin my life. I have felt stressed about money and jobs and that makes me feel alone. I have felt like I need to employ trickery and have a great amount of random, undeserved luck to get somewhere good and secure in life.
But in reality, I am part of an intricate web of life, and so are you. I had to learn to trust the universe and the fact that I am supported — nothing bad is happening to me, I just need to see the big picture.
We Are All Connected
You are part of a whole, and an important part. Even inanimate objects are connected to you through quantum energy. Consciousness pervades all things and you are not disconnected from that.
When you embody the oneness of existence, things get clear. You see that there is nothing to fear or stress about. You're supported by the universe.
Relationships in your life are here to teach you about this and help you come into oneness. But it's so easy to get caught up in the notion that you need to protect yourself against other people and to stop trusting that things work out how they're meant to.
Releasing the Need to Control & Embody Love
I have had relationships that I felt like I needed to control. I felt like I had to intervene with the natural order of things and try to force an outcome. But the universe knows what it's doing. By embodying oneness, I see when it's the compassionate thing to do to step away from certain relationships and when it's right to let certain phases of my life end.
We don't need boundaries against others. We don't need to stop trusting people. We don't need to use our past experiences as shields against future ones. We just need to embody love.
When you totally surrender to love, you remove the anxiety in your life. You stop fearing interactions and relationships. Instead, you can start to focus on the connections between you and all other people.
Everything Happens for a Reason
There is nothing to fear when you know that the universe is working exactly as it needs to be and you are exactly where you need to be. Relationships in your life are exactly as they should be in order to teach you something. You always have a choice to choose between love and fear.
Even someone who appears to be trying to hurt you is connected with you somehow. They mirror you. There's something in you that is also in them. They're giving you an opportunity to look within and understand why people behave in hurtful ways.
Find compassion for others around you and go toward oneness, not separation. Fear only hurts you. Anger only destroys the one who harbors it. If you instead choose to love and find connections with anyone, even perceived enemies, then your day-to-day life will become easier. Trust in the universe, and you don't have to worry anymore about how things will turn out — you just surrender to the flow instead.
