Addiction

IMG_7900

We live in a world where nearly all of us have an addiction of some sort.

I am not talking about the usual things when we think of addiction, such as alcohol, drugs or food. Those are the obvious ones that society uses to easily judge others with, as they race to update their Facebook status about how terrible these kind of people are.

We might be addicted to checking if we have any new message notifications, likes, follows or comments.

We might be addicted to YouTube, Pokemon, our smartphones or many other compulsive habits that we all have.

This addictive behaviour is a reflection of the judgemental, fear, scarcity and shaming society that we have created, where most are craving worthiness or hiding from the scarring effects of a society such as that.

If only we could remove the correlation between achievement, what we have done, what we have, where we live, who we know and many other things and worthiness as a person.

We are born good enough and will remain so throughout our lives regardless.

We need to be unconditional with each other and unexpectant.

People who feel worthy do not need to hide or soothe their souls with addiction.

We can all help build a society as one human race that feels worthy.

Some days

Some days are a blur, for many, whole weeks, months or even a lifetime.

We’re in another world or just not tuned in.

Often, that is because we believe being almost frantically busy is good.

We have subscribed to the myth that busy and ‘achieving’ things, even if most of them we don’t know why we are doing, equates to success. Ultimately we believe it will make us worthy.

Worthiness and success are not related to achievement.

Busy is often a good way of avoiding something and not dealing with what matters. ‘I have no time for that’.

The key to happiness is to cherish life and the moments that matter, it is to do less, and that means carefully choosing what matters.

Focus only on what matters, what you will remember with real fondness at the end of the journey.

Take your time to enjoy each step of your life.
