Don't "should"
on other people and
don't let them "should"
on you.
Should
is a judgment we make
based on our experiences
and perceptions.
When we pass that on to
other people, we are
judging them.
Should
is an expression of
fear. It says that
our way is the right
way; if you move beyond
that, you might prove I
am wrong.
Should
is the way we control
others, to make them
think or behave the way
we want them to.
Should
takes us on a guilt trip
and limits our capacity
to grow. If we
only do the things we
should
do we will never learn
another way we could do
it.
Should
limits us to what is
comfortable.
Should
keeps us in a place that
is familiar.
Should
makes us responsible to
someone other than
ourselves when we know
that is not the way we "should"
live.
