Real Refreshing

There is something refreshing in not giving a fuck what anyone thinks.  The freedom in letting ourselves let go of anything and everything that holds us back.  That only comes when we let go of all fear.  There is so much insanity in this world, people are lost and some days I feel lost too.  The speed the world moves is nuts and we are constantly going just as fast, unable to hear our real thoughts, to find our real purpose, to connect to anything stable that matters.  I feel most lost not in movement itself, not in the humbling of ego to help others, but in the fear and trying to make everyone happy.  We can all BE happy but we can’t rely on others to MAKE us happy.  If we operate under the belief we have to make others happy we need to understand that’s our choice and no one is obligated to return that favor.  We can’t find happiness outside of ourselves.  Owning things, power over people, none of that matters.  There is no real propriety in this world—we don’t really own anything.  We are only borrowing it until we move on. 

We are of this world, our existence is our creation.  We are not THE world, we don’t make the world, we make our reality—reality is what we make it.  The world functions just fine on its own as we know we are far more parasitic than we sometimes care to acknowledge.  The world would continue as it is without any of our interference or attempt to control things.  We’ve changed course and how things look and operate, but the world can level all that in a moment if it chooses.  So we can’t be arrogant enough to think we can alter any of that.  We can only change our reality.  We define the parameters of what’s good/bad, and what we can/can’t do, what we will/will not do.  We are good and bad, light and dark.  We have balance in us if we choose to recognize it.  We spend so much time DOING to survive in this design of man, doing things we aren’t naturally inclined to do, that it feels suffocating after a while—when we start to wake up to the other options we have in life (living as we are).  When we break loose it feels like the whole world makes sense.  Like nothing can stop us and we’re out of the dream world we’ve been living in.  It clicks.

Breaking loose and finding freedom scares people because they take up a new level of responsibility in their lives.  See, just because we find flow and where we are supposed to be doesn’t mean it comes free of obligation—we still have things we will need to do to survive.  What we want, even if we are fully aligned doesn’t just appear to us.  There is still work to do.  The difference is there is ease in the effort.  Sure there are challenges. Sure there are days we may still have to fight a bit and make sure we are still on course.  But the thoughts and opinions of other people and what they think hold no weight so it’s one less obstacle to navigate in making our own choices.  No one has to agree with us in order for us to create the reality that calls to us, that only we can see in our minds.  We start truly living when we let go of what we hold in our minds what we think others think of us.  See how complicated that sounds?  If we can’t even articulate that without getting confused, think about how much that is actually confusing us.  Allow the freedom of releasing that unnecessary weight to wash over us and open up to the real wonders of life that we get when we work with who we are, who we are designed to be.
