It’s About The “Principle” … Or Is It Really?

BTHC January 2025 Blog

We have all heard it many times. Our grandmothers and our mothers have said it and most of us have said it a few times ourselves. Deep down inside we know we shouldn’t argue, we understand the futility of a fight and yet we stand steadfast because of the perceived “principle”.  When we disagree with family or friends or even a spouse or when nations stand against nations we never resolve the real issue because of the ever important “principle.” Why do we carry on? We fight wars and have been known to say, “our loved ones are dead to us”, all for the “principle of the thing!” How much do we really need to sharpen a point? The reality is that no one wins in fights when the principle is the imaginary object. The principle is really our ego that won’t let go. Learn to release the principle and you will live in peace. It’s about the principle … or is it really??
