They Need You But Do They Want You

When I first published this article about 10 years ago it was very popular. Many people saw themselves in it and realized that the painful, unfulfilling relationships and situations they were holding onto so tightly that they did not have the time or energy for anything else were very one-sided. They knew in their hearts that someone needed them, but the other person was rejecting their efforts because they did not want them or their light or energy. It was an unbalanced attempt at resolving karmic entanglements, karmic debts, and trying to get closure in situations by creating a pre-destined resolution that just was not going to happen. We do tend to hang onto our karma with both hands but there does come a time when we need to let go and move on. This is one of those times. If you have not lost connections with many people in your life in the past three to five years, you may be counting yourself lucky, but your day of reckoning is arriving. I’m not making dire predictions here, just stating the fact that everyone has one or more relationships that are frustrating and unfulfilling because you’re trying to help or save someone, and they aren’t cooperating. Those relationships are ending now partly because the energy gaps have become too great and because we have other things to do than try to convince someone that the light path is the best one for them when they do not believe that it is. And who are we to judge, really. We think that everyone’s light path should be the same when someone could be experiencing the greatest level of spiritual growth they have ever had across all of their lifetimes and we’re discounting that because it does not conform to our idea of what that light path should be. Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com  Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2026 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.
