Hey friend,
Life isn’t difficult
But it’s the rejection of life
that makes life difficult
It’s our denial, rejection, dismissal of half of life
It’s our absence, our lack of presence
That makes it painful.
To be present is to bring all of yourself into the this moment
receiving all of you
means receiving with complete love
the failure
the cowardice
the fuckups
the weakness
the “mistakes”
As well as all the gold
receiving how far we are from our true nature
receiving how far we are from our potential
receiving all of you, means receiving all of this
without judgement
without resistance
without being seduced by feelings
to receive all energy, any thought
no matter how potentially devastating it may be to accept
it is only the denial
and resistance
and rejection of these things
that make them difficult
that creates a mountain out of the molehill.
Consider friend, when you deny yourself, reject yourself, are absent to yourself
You become less.
