Stubborn or Committed?
We used to tease about my dad's stubbornness. He used to say back, "You call it stubborn, I call it committed." And he was.
How do I tell the difference in me? When am I just being stubborn, and when am I being committed to Truth? The way I am measuring this one is by whether or not I am committed to my own integrity, as well as committed to 'their' ultimate good, as well as committed to real Reality.
That sounds like it should be easy. Today it's not.
I am stubborn and it leads to being committed to tasks. I also know that when its easy, I feel UN-easy.
Something I need to look at to find a truth.
This is how it is with me. When I’m being stubborn, I’m right and you are wrong, period. When I am committed, on the other hand, I have my truth, and you may have yours and it may be different, and that’s okay, because your interface with reality is not in the same place as mine.
