Open The Eye of Gratitude
Open the eye of gratitude. Surround yourself with people that you love and love you back, your heart will know which ones those are. Don’t erase, but set boundaries with codependent/toxic relationships, your gut will know which ones those are. Speak your truth with integrity but be willing to be misunderstood and judged. Stay silent until you hear your own voice with clarity. “Nothing is more holy than the integrity of one's own soul.” Don’t be afraid of your own mind because you will be with it until you die. As your mind is holy the mind of others is also holy. Be as honest as you can, don’t pollute other minds with lies, but remember that some things, if spoken, lose their meaning. Others are not your master or your slave, just co-passengers on a rollercoaster with fears and dreams, just like you. Most ideas are defined by their opposite, map out the polarities to find balance. I’m trying to find balance, but it’s hard, the pendulum always swings and the 0 point is an asymptote. But it’s the only way to live in concord with others and nature, A common agreement to try to sustain balance. Don’t expect others to see the world as you do, You have to try to respect others even when you don’t understand them. The most revolutionary thing you can do is “Love your Enemy.” You and I are ‘lucky’ to be alive. Because there is a past we are here, because we are here the future is uncertain, it’s true if we like it or not. Your heroes and ideals are invented. If you believe they exist, they can become your worst judge. They are only meant to guide you towards a place that is not a destination. Don’t expect or want anything from the world. Just let your heart aim towards a direction, start walking and be grateful for whatever comes your way. Trust the process, trust yourself, trust G_d. There is always movement, As there is something that contains all movement. There is something infinite in a moment, as there is something finite to a whole lifetime. Who you are is the only question you can answer.
