Doing the opposite to what brings us joy

We always feel most at ease and peace inside when we are truly ourselves, when we are not wearing any hats, when we are not acting out any roles, when we are not trying to fit in. We feel most at ease when we set our boundaries, when we do not justify ourselves, when we do not seek approval or permission.

Amazingly we spend most of our lives doing the opposite of what brings us peace and joy. We are always trying to fit in, trying to please others, acting out roles, seeking approval and permission and fearing being our true self in case we offend someone.

Madness given we only get one shot at this human experience on this rock.

Just be you and enjoy the journey and the ones who are the true beings will get you as you are and those who don’t, well they have a different journey to yours.

Grateful

Gratitude enables us to be free.

We are conditioned to want more and in wanting more we are always looking into the future, which doesn’t exist and therefore creates uncertainty. Wanting more is about judgement and a feeling of inferiority or superiority.

Gratitude is being at peace with what we have right now and removes our ego and the consequent suffering that not having enough will bring.

We all have everything we need right now.
