When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
I apologize for my poor English. I love a friend of mine deeply and truly from my inner consciousness. He is bound by his parents. His parents wish for him to have some different things apart from me.
It was painful to take up this situation, but I have no choice except to accept it.
Still, I think only of that person. He is just rooted so deeply that I cannot think of eliminating or detaching him from me.
I really don’t know about his intentions.
What I am feeling is that I have nothing to achieve, nothing to lose, nothing to gain. I don’t have suicidal tendencies, but I have literally nothing to do.
Though I am not well settled in a career, I am creative, with a perfect blend of modern and traditional values. I am sensitive, caring, loving, and hold a deep feeling inside to help others to the extent of sacrificing my life. This is my true nature.
I don’t know how to convince that person that I am the best fit for him.
Deep within, my inner voice says that nobody can be as good and understanding as me as far as his wife is concerned. I am deeply worried for my true best friend.
Every day I am praying, praying and only praying. I feel as a human I can do only my part and miracles in life can happen only through God’s help.
But surely Deepakji, I feel if I can get my friend’s company, we can go to heights and reach a remarkable stage in life, what you call serving humanity can be our forefront objective.
But being single I feel I cannot live nor can I think of any other person in my life.
What should I do?
Response:
Your sincerity and purity of heart shine through your letter. And clearly, your heart has settled on this young man. What is not clear from your letter is whether he shares your feelings. You said you don’t know what his intentions are for you, but practically speaking, I think that is the most important thing to find out. If he cares for you and wants to be with you, then he can work on getting his parents to come around. Right now you understand that his parents don’t approve, and you say that you have no choice but to accept that. Yet you obviously have not come to terms with it. So talk to him directly and find out what’s in his heart. If he doesn’t want to be with you and is only using the excuse of his parents’ disapproval to break it off, then you need to know that it is his decision, not just theirs. If he is indecisive and confused and doesn’t know what he wants and is passively deferring to his parents, then you ought to know that about him as well. But if he knows in his heart that he loves you, then he can be encouraged to stand up for his life and choices to his parents so that you two can be together. Good luck.
Love,
Deepak
