A Narrative - Some Food For Thought
Your #travelling on this big daunting road of life, where fear is just around every corner and “self” is no where to be found. Then all of a sudden… in one moment, the splash of a second and the blink of an eye... it’s there, it's right there! There it is, that feeling of goodness and #wellness, of peace and #prosperity, of liberation, strength, knowing, warrior spirit, and #abundance. There it is, do you feel that? Oh you do? AMAZING!
Despite the thrill, we tend to not give ourselves permission to feel into that feeling.
Why are we so afraid to let ourselves feel when we know that in all of existence the one thing humans KNOW to be real, is what we feel? And yet for some reason we have a generation of people saying “It’s too real”… What does that even mean? Of course it’s real! This whole entire experience is real, it is all we’ve ever known and come into experience with on a physical level. So then why are we so afraid to feel that, or better yet, to live that? We must also factor in that on a spiritual level it is all an illusion, somewhat of a dream while we are alive, then once we die we "wake up" again. On the contrary, this and that are true, however I believe that if being on earth is a dream, if it really is just an illusion, why not make most of it and really live the dream?
Because it's in that moment, when we experience what most call a “temporary” feeling of bliss, in comes the fear, and the stories you’ve been told. The voice in your head namely Logic, steps in to give you a “reality check”. But my question to you is, how is escaping reality, a reality? How is not living your dream, living the dream? Ahh, the paradox of it all.
As a species, we’ve practically bullshitted ourselves into believing that who we are, and our feelings don’t have any meaning nor purpose, and it's best to just ignore it because it's not "realistic" or it’s "unsafe" in some way. And boy oh boy at the time running backwards sure does feel safe! Back in the cocoon, into your comfort zone, where you know how to live, move, act and be. Where you know when to laugh, when not to laugh, shit, cheat, eat, sleep, repeat.
Don’t take my analogy of cheating as something outside of the self, I’m talking about cheating on ourselves. By constantly putting ourselves aside for everything and everybody else. Whether we justify that it's out of love, or we do it out of ego and try to become something we're not; we are all just constantly cheating ourselves by trying to be something "the world" expects us to be and trying to escape our true feelings.
Because if you really listened to that feeling deep within, the one that brings you joy, and did what made you feel good, then what would everyone else think/say? Who are you to be so selfish! Why do you get to "choose" how to live your life if they didn't have a choice! But have you ever stopped to consider that if this person was selfless themselves, they wouldn’t be asking you to fulfil their need for happiness, rather they would find happiness in seeing you happy or even go that one step forward and learn to make themselves happy!
One thing I have found on my journey, is that if we do not give to ourselves, if we do not care for ourselves, and most importantly if we do not love ourselves, we cannot give those things to others. How can we share that which we are void of? Self-love my friends is not selfish, it is SELF-FULL. If you are not full of yourself, your essence, your spirit, then what are you full of? Your true nature is that of god/creator/source; it is your Shakti Energy that powers and fuels the life within you. Only when you are full of spirit and your Shakti, can you share the spirit of love and healing energy with others,
You see if it ain't #unconditional, then there will always be some kind of condition or expectation attached to it. Don't let yourself become a byproduct of the system before you. If it doesn’t make sense to you on a soul level, it's not for you to repeat, rather it's for you to create a new way of being! If something has been passed down for #generations and eons, it doesn’t mean it's what is right or best for you. If that was the case we would still be victims of slavery, unable to liberate ourselves and those who came before us. The only way to free yourself and your loves ones is to listen to that voice within! The inner-child within you knows this voice very well. Remember when we were children and we had no worries, no stress, no concerns. Just a wild and vivid imagination, we could make something out of nothing and it became our reality. True masters of energy, true magicians. Society might train us away from this child like nature, but there is an innocence, a purity that resides within us all and is waiting and ready for you to tap in at any time and remember yourself.
Some #REALTALK
Look around you at these people that are judging you for living your best life, are they living theirs? If not, then you're taking advice, or stopping in your tracks for the wrong people. I honestly believe it's the people who didn’t listen to that feeling and go after their own dreams, that end up projecting their own lack/limitations and judgments on to the people that do believe in the power of their dreams. This all comes out of fear, anger, resentment, jealousy, childhood issues and #unhealed wounds. And yet it's these same naysayers that are our biggest lesson and blessing. As Buddha said, the greatest teacher of an awakened man is the unawakened man. Their bitterness teaches us kindness, their hatred teaches us compassion, their wrong doings teach us forgiveness. They teach us humility and create the contrast between light and dark. They help us to choose, discern and to stay on our paths even amidst the storms and the chaos.
Just as much as there are these kind of people in the world, there are also the opposite, Where there is darkness, there must be light. It's the polarity & duality we are fortunate enough to experience while we are conscious on earth. If we can begin to understand how the darkness serves us to find more of our light, how without night there would be no significance of day, and how all of life is a learning experience, then we can be grateful even to those who do not have our best interest. Because in the end, they teach us our power, they force us to heal, they force us to find tools that will help us tap into deeper levels of our consciousness and source energy, they bring us closer to the creator. They help us to realise we are our greatest asset, and THAT is in our interest!
This one is for the thinkers, the doers, the feelers. The healers, the liberators, the leaders, and the ones who came here to leave a #legacy. This life is ours, it has been gifted to us, we all have something great within us, we all have the spark of the creator that shines through us when we allow ourselves to listen to that inner truth. It is our responsibility to cultivate, build, and nurture it. But until we learn how to take care of, listen to, and look after ourselves, we will never truly be immersed in the experience of life for long enough to enjoy an expanding #bliss.
So I guess after all of this, my real message to you today, is to listen. Listen to that inner voice of knowing, that inner feeling that is so real and so true that it terrifies the shit out of you, let it. Allow the fear to boil up and rise to the ceiling, let yourself be submerged in it for a moment so that you can really find out where it's coming from. Now sit with it, transmute it and heal that shit so you can let it go. As the saying goes you gotta "feel it" to "heal it". Become a lighter body and float to the top. Break through that ceiling, and LIVE YOUR DREAM. BECOME A #MULTIDIMENSIONAL BEING!
Pssst.. go ahead....re-experience your bliss again.
