TODAY’S WORDS OF ENLIGHTENMENT; What exists beyond where the limits appear to be.
Your brain works against you in ways you don’t realize.
The compulsion to repeat makes familiar discomfort desirable.
The negative is disproportionately focused on because it feels like a more clear potential threat.
You are an evolving being trying to operate with pieces of a machine developed for the most blunt kind of survival.
Your growth is the product of witnessing those impulses and choosing otherwise, again and again, until it is instinctive, until it is rewired.
When you live from what’s immediately comfortable,
You miss out on what’s infinitely beautiful:
What exists beyond where the limits appear to be.
If you are trapped in a pattern,
If it feels like you are pushing against an ocean current that keeps carrying you back to shore no matter how hard you try to get to the other side stand still.
Look back at what you are running from and un- pack it.
Be in it, just for a moment.
Evaluate, and question.
It’s probably not your strength that’s lacking, but it may be your strategy.
Sometimes, running into a wall does not mean you need to be strong enough to push through it,
But wise enough to see that there is another way.
Sometimes, you are being asked to find an easier way to be.
