I’m trying to understand how to act purposefully while not overanalyzing what I do and say. I thought about my idea about raising kids. I think parents need to do all they can to instill a good foundation of right and wrong, give their children a strong base upon which they can make good decisions. Then parents must know that when set free their children will do the best they can because of the upbringing they received. I know it’s important to think about the intentions I want to set in my life, but when I think and think and think about what I’m about to do I’m like a parent who isn’t letting their child grow up. I know that I have good intentions, I don’t have to think at every moment if what I’m doing is from that place inside of me, and I especially don’t have to try and filter everything to make sure my exact intentions are going to be understood before I act. I know my intentions and I know when and where they are to be evaluated. I can feel free to allow my actions to spring forth because I have tended the space from which they originate.
