Floating by

Today I just got up and decided to go and sit by the sea, to be in the cold wind, to sit in the winter sun and to just watch the world go by…to be in the moment and at peace.

My soul and body were telling me for a while to take a break, to step away from the ‘package’ aka the mind and all its rambling repetitive daily thought patterns. But like most, I ignored it.

I feel completely re-energised from just being in nature and for feeling the cold elements. From just sitting and observing the moment, it reminded me that passing clouds and passing people are like thoughts they float by and that’s it. Everything passes unless we choose to cling on and attach things to it. Then through choice, we continue to suffer through our attachments.

Let life be, let it float by and go with it.

Just observe

It doesn’t always need a view, a comment, an idea, or a judgement.

Let the mind be at peace and allow our thoughts on anything just float by. Once we energise them, then they will turn into words or actions or more thought. It becomes an almost never-ending stream of thought and causes suffering within.

Let things just be and observe. This allows us to observe without evaluation and this stops us thinking about literally everything all the time.
