Service Vs. Servitude

[Jade]

Wow, I think you did such a great job articulating how polarizing can get in the way of true service (which I believe you said you wanted to touch on). So often people let themselves get bogged down with an overactive heart chakra - the trap of the martyr. They work so hard to do good and then feel as if they haven't made a dent in the suffering of the world, and get down on themselves for being worthless. The inner work is the outer work = the suffering you alleviate in yourself is the suffering you alleviate for the whole world.
