Life Is Complicated

Picture
Life IS complicated. We can try to make it simple and easier by steeping ourselves in our practices. Or we can work to dumb it down.
 
For most of us, we don’t want to sit in the passenger seat and watch life roll by. We want to participate and that means continuing to grow and change.
 
And that’s hard work. It’s not the easy way. If you are reading this, then you are probably like me, and want to live to the fullest that’s possible, each and every day.
 
And some days, that means dumbing it down because we can only take in so much, we need to process through things, or we need a day to recover from all the crap that happened the day prior.
 
But for the most part, we strive to grow and change, and figure out on continually deeper levels who we are moment by moment. So we can experience life at it’s fullest, share what it is we want to express, and make our mark on the world.
 
Some days this is harder than others – dealing with our demons and these voices that tell us we’re nothing, or remind us of all the times we’ve failed, or that we might fail this time, and this fail will be BIG. We try to talk ourselves out of living large with all those FEARS that stalk our dreams and silent thoughts.
At times, we try to talk ourselves out of living large with all those FEARS that stalk our dreams & silent thoughts. And in others, we stand fully as we are, speak our thoughts clearly, & turn a blind eye to anyone who doubts us.
And then on other days, we manage to tap into our inner strength, wisdom, and confidence, and we let our lights shine bright and stand fully as we are, speak our thoughts clearly, and turn a blind eye to anyone who doubts us.
 
On the days when you struggle, or the times when you are losing the fight for your own freedom – those are the times when your practices can help you move forward.
 
Whether it’s a physical or sitting practice, or both, remembering to turn to your practice for support is key. Understanding which practices help you in what moments is also critical.
 
And turning to a teacher, that can help guide you, teach you the practices designed for specific situations, and can understand where you are, and what you are struggling with, can be life changing, and may help propel you further, faster than you can get on your own.
 
Share your voice! I’d love to hear from you in the comments below - what are your favorite practices to keep you moving through life? Or share a time when you let your light shine through the darkness of your fears so you could shine bright!
