Live…and let live
Hhhhmmmmm…
Fascinating, a statement, isn’t it?

I wonder what people mean by it
It’s like everyone has their own way of saying it and living it
And it gets trickier, there’s a diversity of living beings in the world…with all our strengths, weaknesses, behaviors, beliefs, family backgrounds, friends, aspirations
That’s where this statement gets tested best…under all the pressures that surround us

Can you ably sit down with a person, whose political views and beliefs strongly differ from yours?
Can you ably have a good conversation with somebody that practices and subscribes to a different religion than the one you do?
Can you ably sit down with a very proud person to share in some chit-chat about change?
Or even, can you ably sit next to someone that doesn’t subscribe to your sexual preferences and sexuality….all of those, without having to throw stones at them?

1 Thessalonians 5:15 says,
“Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always strive to do what is good for each other for everyone else”.

And then, there’s an all-timer…the greatest commandment… LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR, AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF (I hope I haven’t added on anything that wasn’t part of the original writing…hihi)
So, how do you live and let live?
LIVE and LET LIVE! yes 🙂

It’s hard but sometimes it’s easier to let go things fall in place as they should. Great post
Aaawwww…thank you, Marie, for sharing and appreciating.
I am finding it hard to keep my mouth shut when I see my daughter make the same mistakes I made. I know she has to learn on her own but it’s so hard to let her live her own life her way.
Hhhhmmmmm….alright, Paula. If you say so! Thank you for sharing.
We need to live and breathe using words of love and understanding. Love one and another. <3
No doubt on that, Nina! Love…love…love
I love this so much! So important to spread love and positivity and despite our differences, we can still find common ground.
No doubt on that, Natalie. Thank you for appreciating. ?
Wow, it’s a great post! sometimes it’s easier to let go things fall in place as they should.
Aaaahhhhh….thank you, Annreeba, for appreciating. ?
What a great post! It’s definitely easier to let things over than holding onto them.

Aaaawwwwww….thank you, Sondra. Indeed, it is! ???
I have a lot of trouble when others are trying to push their beliefs on me. I’m a Christian, a Baptist if a denomination factors in, and I don’t try to convert anyone because I think everyone is able to make up their own mind. I have friends of all different cultural and religious beliefs and as long as none of these subjects are broached, we all get along perfectly. Everyone should live and let live.
Aaaaaahhhhh…..alright, Terri. Thank you for sharing. ??
Woow, great reminder . sometimes we forget this little things, or outrightly take them for granted .
People often seek to control everything and everyone around them. Thanks for this great reminder.
You’re most welcome!
Indeed! You’re welcome.
This is beautiful! I do my best to live in the moment. Not worrying about the past or the future, but trusting in God.
Aaaawwww….thank you for appreciating! That’s gooosdddd…. ??
Thanks for the reminder.. Indeed we must live and let live
You’re most welcome. We must….no doubt!
Love the notion of this. I just “don’t take myself so seriously.” and that helps! 🙂
Aaaaahhhhhhh….. ?? the same goes for me, Paula! Thank you for sharing.
I think tat you started off with a great statement and I live by it. We all come to our own terms on this but the message need to be spread out.
Aaaaahhhhhh….it will, Holly. You can be sure of that! ?? thanks for sharing and appreciating.
Great reminder.. Live and let live indeed.. Such philosophies make the world a better place.
Ooohhh yyyeeeaaahhhh! Thank you for appreciating.
I’m all about positivity and paying it forward. I really liked the post.
Aaaahhhhh….alright, Charmain! Thank you ? for sharing.
I’m a really patient person and pretty open-minded. It doesn’t bother when others live differently than I do. But it’s always good to remind myself to practice tolerance and understanding.
Aaaaawwwww….that’s lovely of you, Melanie! ?
This was a great post. I am on the same page as you, It’s important to just sit back and not worry so much. Thanks for sharing.
Aaaaww….thank you, Michelle. ?
I am hoping that someday the world isn’t cruel, but loving, accepting and understanding with all the flaws and imperfections.
😍😍👏🏿👏🏿
We all need to learn to forgive. This is a great post outlining the example and measures we should all take as humans to get along. Well done! Such a good post!
😍😍👍👍
Such a thought provoking post! Thanks for sharing.
👍👍you’re welcome.
So many people just can’t seem to get along despite different beliefs. We have lost some friends because of political beliefs – they seemed to harp on issues all the time and picking a fight over it.
😩😩😩 that’s too bad.
You write fascinating posts on important topics! Thank you. I going to add your blog to my favorites.
😍😍👍👍
I love this saying so much! Life is all about doing the things that matter most.
😍😍👏🏿👏🏿
It’s a fascinating statement indeed. Life is all about doing the things that you love the most and spending your time on the things that matter to you.
😍😍👍👍
If Only people were truly live and let live. If only they did this and then we would have much contact
😍😍😩😩
I don’t think it’s difficult to live with different personalities and completely different people. People can be and do what they want
😍😍👏🏿👏🏿
not an easy one, sometimes you just need to let things be at the end there is transfer of knowledge and friendship can be built from that, its just like dating the fan of your rival team.
😂😂👏🏿👏🏿
It is nice when people take time out to be considerate and kind to one another. Imagine if we all did more of that! 🙂
😍😍👍👍
each and everyone of us has our own beliefs and perspective in life. we just have to respect each other and not make things complicated.
😍😍🙂👏🏿
