We are not our foot

The thing is, being in the moment is straight forward at times and at other times we get dragged into our thoughts and we become unconscious within the mind.

It is journey and our level of consciousness grows. We have to undo years, often a lifetime, of conditioning that convinces us that we are our mind.

However, once we experience the conscious moment free from the mind and its endless repetitive thought patterns we never will go back to continual unconsciousness. It is the beginning of the end of our association with the mind and ego.

We realise we are no longer our mind, it is just a part of us, the same as our foot is.

Be first

What we feel others don’t give us can easily be changed. So if we feel unloved, unwanted, not paid attention to, left out, ignored or not respected…we blame others, our ego makes it their fault.

Instead of looking to others to give it to us or to blame, we can step away from our ego and be first and start giving it to the world. So we can give respect, love, attention, kindness, and understanding, in fact, much more. When we become a giver we become positive and send out positive energies.

Amazingly, very soon all the things we feel that we didn’t get come to us and more than we perhaps expected.

Don’t wait for others to change, be first.
