Liberation and true freedom

IMG_3373

We can liberate ourselves from anything we choose to in our lives by being open to our emotions and embracing them, being curious about them and then writing a different story.

Being brave enough to not resist things and to step into the unknown and not fear pain.

Liberating ourselves of the burden of suppressed emotions and a willingness to be brave enough to be vulnerable is the only way to enjoy true freedom.

Having this freedom is truly liberating.

Swimming against the tide

Swimming against the tide is tiring unless you’re a salmon aiming to swim upstream to spawn, and I am guessing, seeing as salmon are not prolific readers of my blog, that you’re not.

In life, we expend so much energy resisting things that we deep down know are the right solutions or the right choices.

All we need to do is let go, let go of inhibition, let go of fear, let go of worry and follow our instincts.

Go with the flow, because until some obstacle comes along, we can float happily through life. When the obstacle comes we’ll have to deal with it, but all obstacles can be overcome. If it can’t, then choose a different stream to flow down.

Swim with the tide, it’s so much more enjoyable, is less tiring and who knows what will come along, that’s the exciting thing about life, the unexpected, the magical, the unknown.
