The difference between my dog’s calendar and mine? I’m attached to a story and what happens. He is not.
“It is a strange and wonderful fact to be here, walking around in a body, to have a whole world within you and a world at your fingertips outside you. It is an immense privilege, and it is incredible that humans manage to forget the miracle of being here.
Rilke said, ‘Being here is so much,’ and it is uncanny how social reality can deaden and numb us so that the mystical wonder of our lives goes totally unnoticed. We are here. We are wildly and dangerously free.” John O’Donohue
Thank you for this. A quick reminder. I’m finding myself stucked to the expectations of society.
It’s so normal to feel this way and we all get caught in the illusion and pressure of society. Knowing we are always free is the gift, and all we need to do to feel this freedom is to let go of the story we are telling ourselves! 🙏🏻✨
The hard thing is to make silence from your mind. How is it?
Don’t try and silence your mind, it’s impossible. Listen and focus on aligning your body, sit straight, and use your breath to calm and relax each part. Then the mind will respond. 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for this. In my own experience, the power of negative thoughts in my mind is so enormous that it affects my everyday living in a detrimental way.
Keep practising everyday. its a training for sure.
We are here. That about says it all. Love it.
Yes so simple. 😉
Love every bit of this!
