I am starting to learn that if I stop fighting, protesting and arguing with the world that I am more capable of seeing and feeling things as they really are. For years, my self-will and self centeredness has reduced my perspective to a very narrow and painful pea hole full of pain and anger that always leads to misery. What a release it has been, to let go. In letting go, I am free. I hear other people, not only hear them, but process their experience. Sometimes, processing their experiences is painful, because I have played a part in causing pain, or doubt, or frustration. However, if I set the fighting aside, I am blessed with the opportunity to speak my truth. There is so much freedom in my truth. For this moment, my heart is at peace, and my head is quiet....and for me, this is a glorious release!!
Hey!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my blog about not cutting out grains and cheese/dairy. I hear you! Grains, actually, I HAVE to cut out, as they blast my blood sugar sky high, and I am almost instantly stressed out to the max when I eat them. Dairy, I'm trying, mostly as I've had allergies my whole life, and I want to see if cutting them out will make a difference.
But hey, if it doesn't do anything to change this, you can bet, I'll go back to how it was before. You're right! It sure isn't worth biting everyone's head off, just so you can PR. If I was a pro-athlete maybe, but I'm not! :)
