What makes you suffer?
How can you get more peaceful?
How can you get less irritable?
How can you be more loving to other people?
There is just one way to become more peaceful and that is to realise that you are a child of God, and that God not only takes care of you, but also your family and friends.
Realise absolutely, the absolute believing, that you are a child of God―that you are in this physical embodiment purposely to learn the lessons most necessary for you―
He is with you, and is watching over you.
And if you show the right attitude of mind―or the true desire to do the right thing, you will not only be helped, but will hear the answer plainly―or at the very least, will be led into doing that which is right.
Nothing can keep you back that is not your business.
Nothing can keep you back from lifting the curtain on your own life, but it is not your business to lift the curtain from anyone else's life.
You must do your own work and be cheerful, happy, and helpful, but you must not even try to do someone else's work.
Suggest perhaps what you think is wise and then leave them alone, for each one must take the Karma of what he decides to do.
Each one must take the Karma of what he decides to do.
So if you tell others to do something against their will, then, as the old Scotchman says―
They will surely be of the same opinion still.
Mind your own affairs, attune yourself to the God of Love, and let all your household and their various duties rest in His Great Love.
Know absolutely that whatever is best for them will come to them and no amount of worry―or the disturbance of your own conditions can possibly change it.
But pray that they may be enlightened and guided to do and follow that which is best.
