Why do I feel like this?

We are always looking for a reason as to why we feel a certain way. Why we are angry, sad, emotional, frustrated or whatever.

The thing is, it doesn’t matter what the reason is and when we let whatever we are feeling just be, accepting that is what is and how we are feeling in this moment, then there is no resistance, no negativity and it will soon pass or not, again it doesn’t matter. Peace comes from accepting everything that is and allowing it space to be, not fighting it within.

When we start to analyse, that is, in fact, the mind that is playing up, wanting an answer, usually so we can blame another person or something that happened as the cause of our internal state. Our internal state is always our responsibility.

Accepting how we feel now and letting it be is the best way to let go and move on and to stop suffering within. It never matters why.

New choices

The choices we make all have consequences and they lead us to a unique path each time, some paths are not what we want. It is again another choice as to how we react.

We can choose to accept that the outcome is what it is, we gain a new experience from the outcome and we make a new choice and move on. Everything happens in the now, and what we do now is the only thing that can change our real conscious existence.

Alternatively, we can analyse everything, deny the outcome, react, feel emotions, pain and suffering within and take that forward and manifest further choices that will inevitably lead to the same outcomes again and again. This is what living in the past does, we analyse, we blame, we look for revenge, we resist, we suffer and then we project it all into the future as our guide and suffer fear and pain. It becomes a repeating pattern.

Letting go and accepting our choices and not making a judgement or evaluation brings us inner peace and then from our consciousness we manifest a new choice from a position of peace and not from the fear of the mind.
