Keep it simple

When we just go about life simply, just taking in each moment, when we stay away from drama, judgement and criticism, we free ourselves from so much internal suffering.

We literally let the stress, tension and heaviness lift from each cell of our body, we feel better physically, mentally…our soul shines its light on the world.

It’s all about the focus of our energy onto the joy of whatever we are doing now, even if that’s doing nothing, it is where to put our focus and where we focus is where our energy goes.

When we make things about the simple joy of the experience we are creating right now then there is no time or energy/space for the repetitive and sabotaging thought that often occupies most of our time.

Life isn’t complicate, unless we choose to make it that way, and then, of course, we suffer the consequence of that choice.

Keep everything simple and joy will come.

The dilemma of the mind

Today, is day where I nearly said ‘don’t do your blog, you’re tired, it’s been a long day’ and then I thought ‘but it’s nearly 6 years in just 3 days time to complete 6 years of continuous daily blogging!’.

That is my ego…that is me saying ‘must keep going no matter what’. However, I make the rules for my life, so I could just say ‘it’s late and leave it for tomorrow, because I’m writing this for the art, the craft, saying something that matters, not to just tick a box’.

The internal dialogue of the mind will argue this forever, if I let it, or I could just accept I wrote today’s blog, move on.

Nothing matters…it’s only the mind that creates all these dilemmas and drama to worry about.
