Illusion of separation

Isolation and loneliness have been very present topics and have touched most of us in one way or other these past few years. If looked at from a certain angle, we can choose to see them as important parts of our growth.

On our journey of peeling off the layers of who we are not, to become who we really are, most of us will experience times of darkness and loneliness.

We face situations where we have no choice but to sit with ourself. They are assertive invitations to go within. We may curse the circumstances at first, but these break-downs will lead to big breakthroughs.

It’s okay if it hurts. It’s okay if it feels like the end of the world. You are stronger than you think and you will come out on the other side even stronger.

Disconnection doesn’t exist outside of the linear mind. Go within to anchor into the peace and wisdom of your soul. Go outside to feel at one with mother nature.

At the core we’re always connected to each other and these illusions of separation are just human experiences. Expand and evolve beyond your own perceived limitations.

Growing pains are part of life. And you are never alone.

Sides

Do you look at the bright or dark side of life? They both exist and they both need to be acknowledged.

We grow from daring to venture into the deepest darkest places of ourselves to integrate all the parts of us that we have previously pushed away.

But after those courageous visits, the state of mind and the feeling in our heart that we choose to come home to very much determine our overall life experience.

Letting be

Exercising the expansion of the mind.
Accepting different perspectives.
Being comfortable with complexity.
Fathoming paradoxes.

Non-attachment to a variety of viewpoints.
Every puzzle piece has a purpose.
Observing open-mindedly.
Letting be without hierarchy.

The light and the dark.
The high and the low.
Two sides of the same coin.
One could not exist without the other.

A concept in each hand.
Equal weight.
Releasing the urge to judge.
No better nor worse.

Letting things be as they are.
Letting all play their part.

Magical mindset

Gratitude. My good vibe highway. My go-to pick-me-up. Efficiently escalating the emotional state. A magical mindset.

Thinking about everything that has made me who I am today. The people, the places; the faces, the phases.

Appreciating all I have. I have all I need. Including my dreams. I’m the one holding the vision and the key.

Tuning in with the stillness within. Happy heart. Peace of mind.

Heart art

If their eyes shine bright,
know that they needed that light
to find their way through the night.

The most radiant smiles on Earth
have often learnt life’s worth
by transmuting a lot of hurt.

Being alive is an art,
mastered through the heart.
We’re all here to do our part.
