Berta is a young lady from Amsterdam, that came to work with me for a real estate project.
We already know each other by more than 6 months and really had great progress with what we are doing.
I like her … and she likes all what we are doing together.
But what it’s a little bit funny is that almost every time we meet … and does not like something … she says …”Stop it!”
She said that so many times … that i’ve started to be aware of what i am saying to her.
She actually told me so many times … “Stop saying that … or that … or that” … that in fact i’ve stoped being myself around her.
I’ve actually understood that our relationship has some limits … and to remain friends i need to respect all that.
It was funny …. or maybe i should say ridiculous….
But suddenly … a weird idea came into my mind.
I knew by a long time that many of our relationships are karmic … and maybe that … “Stop it!” … was the signal that we’ve reached the karmic limit … and most probably if i don’t stop doing or saying what she disliked … we’ll be metamorphosed from friends into … enemies.
Or maybe just … stop being friends.
I totally disliked to control my way of being … while i was around her … feeling dominated by her desire of keeping our relationship in certain parameters … but i also understand the concept of karmic limits.
I had to pretend i respect those rules … and accept to be dominated … just of the sake of remaining friends.
It was all … so, so obvious …
But realizing i need to stop being annoyed of that …. I’ve asked myself … what if this is rule number one for all our friendships … respecting and letting ourselves be dominated by certain … rules.
Yes … because beyond those limits imposed to me … those so called karmic limits … everything would probably change ….
She probably wanted that … with everyone around her … cause i’ve heard her saying that to other people also … and to explore just the beautiful side of the relationship … being too afraid … of karmic experiences.
But the question is … can we actually get rid of karmic influences …. which always end up dominating the scene of our lives?
Can we control this process?
Can we remain in certain parameters … of a relationship … just by saying … stop that … stop that … stop that?
For me personally it’s really annoying to let myself be dominated by such persons …. and i prefer to push the … play button … of the karmic story.
