Following up my last post….the Physics of the Quest.
It is amazing how uplifting it is, to actually see the truth about some thing that’s been making you crazy, or just taking up too much of your headspace. To be able to put it all in it’s own place in your psyche and actually just go to sleep, untroubled. To wake up, and know where you are going, and see the possibilities in front of you. To be able to let other things go, when you are able to see how incongruent they are with your beliefs and values, your desires, your lifestyle, your dreams. Just identify and expunge.
It’s also good to know people are doing the best, from the place they are in at the time. Then you don’t need to hold a grudge, don’t need to hang on to hate and anger and pain. I feel so much sadness for people who are so afraid of the truth. To imagine that anything else will protect you. So silly. The other choices, the ones other than facing and accepting the truth, will just make you sick.
As if lying and hiding the truth will ever protect you or anyone else.
Duh.
The truth really does set you free…..Just fly, lift your wings onto the breeze and let it carry you where you want to go.
Especially if you can combine it with unconditional love. Love that never dies, but love that doesn’t weigh you down either.
In the words of Crosby, Stills and Nash, “Let the water come and carry you away.”
Oh yeah.
It is easy to say when you’re over that hill, but pushing someone up there is an exercise in futility. See the truth. Again, it takes a lot of effort to be in a place of wanting to do that, cost it what it might.
You are so right. There’s no way to push someone up the hill anyway, I don’t think. If they don’t want to walk under their own power, then you gotta just keep rising, and let them catch up if they can, if they want to. Fear is so exhausting. Love is so much easier.
It is hard to shut out the people who only come to your door to hurt you (speaking for myself) but I have been told unequivocally that this is the right thing to do. The good times last for just long enough to rope you in until you can get smashed over the head again. The hammer gets heavier and heavier. I find it best to not train people to feed me what I want so they can do whatever they want. It’s hard to let go but has been really worth it to stand away from my self and just observe the craziness in a detached way.
Yes, thank you for that. It is, most assuredly, easier. It helps to know what you really want in the end too.
I was looking for a way to send you a private message but WP is not forthcoming with any information, lol. If you know how I can do that, I’d appreciate it! My email for this blog is Livelikewater@comcast.net
Have responded, just now. Thank you for reaching out.
Love this! Being able to let go is such a gift. Especially when it’s letting go of what no longer serves our best interests. Thanks for this uplifting post 🙂
Thanks! Really.. We can thank Liz! She is such an inspiration.
Yes!
