In every family, there is someone who is courageous enough to break the mold and dare to stretch out for a new foothold.
Even if your family doesn’t fully see the same truth that you see, tread not from your path. Be the beacon of light. If what you have found works well enough, people will follow. You can trust me here, trying to force feed ‘the truth’ down family members throats DOES NOT work. Patience and a consistent example speak volumes and allow the other members of our families to find the truth we so desperately want them to benefit from on their own accord. And when they discover it for themselves, they own it.
No ill feelings, no coercion, just simple steady persistence on your own path and an ever willingness to offer support (or prepare meals) will do wonders for the family dynamic in the long run.
Be the one to shine the light. Be bold. Live passionately. Parent phenomenally. This is the quintessence of High Energy Parenting.
