Forgiveness

Holding a grudge, when we feel insulted, mistreated, wronged in one way or another should only remind us that we put other people’s opinions, words, actions before our own. We perceive the world through others. Through their validation of ourselves. We are focused on the circumstances and events and conclude that they are the source from which we get hurt. We blame that source and not letting go of that blame unless something “happens”…

I’m stuck

Usually, we stop enjoying life the minute we turn our attention from it. To our thoughts or someone else’s life. Thinking about what we don’t have in our life. What others have and we don’t. We make ourselves motionless. By noticing what is missing. Well,…

That kid got it all wrong

Are you looking for people to notice you? Are you looking for attention? Are you looking for a savior? Are you expecting people to be as you like them to be? Are you expecting people to do what you want? Do you depend on people’s opinion of you? Do you depend on what people say or do? If you do – realize that you’re essentially looking to be nourished.

Your suffering is your friend

You’re not missing anything…

I am who I am right now. Physically, mentally and emotionally. The universe allows me to be as I am. The same way it allows the planets and stars to be in space. They are just in existence as I am in existence. Planets that collide. Planets that explode. Planets that are born from collisions with other planets. The existence allows everything to be right now as it is right now. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be, period. As planets explode sometimes,…

Feels like success

Doing for the sake of getting results. Living in gaps of success, while most of the time spent in between the gaps in misery. Liking success doesn’t mean that you like what you’re doing Success is nice but for how long that feeling lasts? That feeling of accomplishment? The satisfaction of finishing something? Being proud of what we’ve done. We try to somehow prolong that feeling. Showing what we did to others. Get their…
