When I allow others to follow their own path, I allow my Self to follow my path.
The paradox is that others are there to show me the way, but their way is not my way.
It takes great discernment & wisdom to know when someone is showing you their way and when they are showing the way for you.
Only when I am following my path will other people appear to be following theirs.
When I appear to be off track, I will attract others who appear to be similarly off track.
This allows a wise person to see the error of their ways.
When I am seeking my path, I will attract others who are similarly seeking theirs.
My path is always the choice of my Soul Entity, which may or may not have the agreement & alignment of my Ego Self.
