Something beautiful happened this weekend. Really beautiful. There was connection, lightness, joy. And then, at the end, something heavy came up. Tears. Collapse. Silence after. It stayed in the room longer than the laughter did. And I noticed how quickly the mind wants to focus on that one hard moment, as if it suddenly defines everything that came before. I felt how easy it would be to replay it, to analyze it, to carry it around. And at the same time I saw that the whole experience was still bigger than that one crack in it. It made me realize how careful we have to be with our attention. Where it rests shapes how we remember, how we feel, how we move forward. Pain deserves space, yes. But it does not deserve the throne. Attention is quiet power. And maybe it is the only thing that is truly ours to guide.

Are any of you mystics or is this more of a casual community. I'm a mystic who's starting to bring some more structure and change into my practice, I was just wondering if anyone else here was too. No dogma, just curiosity.

I'm tired of playing small. I have this "little" child-like mask that I have noticed I sometimes hide behind and I'm tired of it! There is no reason to hold myself back like this, seeing the world through small rose colored glasses. My meditations are guided by my communication with my Patron and the spirits They have sent me. First They gave me "I am Peace." Then, They gave me "I am Dionysos." Well, when I asked Dionysos to help me take off this "little" mask I did not expect to be hit with "You do not exist" and a big smile on Their face. I have heard these teachings before, everything is freely on the internet. But I still had all these emotions as the message was clear in my mind, "I am not real. There is no I. I am nothing..." I was a little bummed. But I knew I was missing something to it. "If I am nothing, if nothing is real, I am everything." But after a nap and some calm being, I realized it is a two-part mantra meditation! "I am Nothing. I am Everything." Anyway, that is how I am not little or small. Because I do not exist. Thanks Bacchus. Anyway, I am in love with God and thinking about this while I procrastinate my German language studies and I wanted to share 🥰

Much love to y’all! Allow Love to enter you….or else🤨
