We’ve all had the experience of a sudden realization that stops us in our tracks. That’s because Truth (with a capital T) has the power to instantly pierce through constructs of the ego.
Your stories form the shelter in which you hide. They have built the armor you wear which you might mistake for protection.
It is only when Truth penetrates that you understand the previous constraints of that protection, aka self-deception.
Will you choose to patch up the armor or choose the breakthrough?
The mind is the key to everything. With its stories, it defines boundaries and sets up barriers. It decides what is possible and what is not. It is a tool, but without awareness it is a captor.
You may not be able to control your thoughts, but you can discern which ones work in your favor. Attend to those which enlarge your experience.
The topography of earth is nothing short of amazing. The beauty of mountains, the serenity of plains, and the wonder of waterfalls should serve as potent reminders.
That grandeur was created from events above and beneath the earth’s surface, the obvious and obscure, sometimes slow and sometimes sudden.
In your own life, this is echoed through forces seen and unseen, through flurries of activity and seemingly stagnant periods.
You, too, are constantly being shaped. Like the earth, the totality of those changes result in your own magnificence.
Unpleasant experiences can play over and over in the mind.
Unfortunately, many get stuck in the realm of self-judgment about the experience, and mistake it for “processing.” Instead of feeling and acknowledging the pain, they inadvertently exacerbate it.
Let spirit extract the lessons while providing the essential self-compassion to move you through. A true process ultimately leads to progress.
It is exhausting to continually pack away pieces of your true self. Whether trying to fit into some self-imposed expectation or one that others have placed upon you, this type of erasure erodes vitality.
Remember, It takes a lot of energy to be anything other than yourself.
