You’re not alone.
Here’s a simple way to think about it:
Powerful electricity needs wires and outlets to safely reach your home. You are the same. You have strong emotions, kindness, and compassion inside you. But without clear boundaries (your “wires” and “outlets”), it feels overwhelming. Your life is about channeling powerful kindness and compassion into clear, meaningful action.
Struggling to say what you need? Feeling disconnected from yourself or others?
Try this simple step:
1. Pause. Take one slow breath.
2. Remind yourself quietly, “My body is a channel for my soul’s compassionate boundaries and kindness.”
Boundaries aren’t about pushing people away. They’re about safely sharing who you really are.
Here’s one easy way to practice:
Clearly say (to yourself or others), “I care about connection, so I’m setting this boundary.”
Takeaway:
Good boundaries turn overwhelming kindness and compassion into clear, stable connection.

The blog lists all the difference patterns to study, understanding patterns is how one can develop 'Daas' [felt knowing].
Update: As awe, trust, and love deepen, they can allow greater openness and intimacy with the Creator. That intimacy can include sadness when you notice how much more of His goodness can be revealed.
