A lot of our spiritual suffering comes from imagination. I hadn’t even really noticed how miserable I drive myself daily, all because I’m thinking about things I don’t have that I think want…
…thinking…thinking…thinking.
Never did I stop just to enjoy everything in front of, and that’s the real failure.
Numb yourself to pain, and you become numb to joy.
I’m learning to open myself to it all, to play, to have fun and live in the moment. In truth, my life is awesome right now. I’ve got so many things going for me, and sure– default brain wants to say, “You need this, that, stacks…” and I do want those things, but I won’t suffer for them.
I’m enjoying my life as I move towards them.
I don’t think you suffering will help you achieve anything. Actually, I liken it to dating… no one is attracted to desperate. If pursue desire with desperation, you’re just that single dude that everyone finds second-hand discomfortable.
Don’t be that guy.
All we have is today, right now.
Enjoy it, the irony is when you learn to do this and let go of bullshit desire– you inevitable gain the life you want.
All progress in my life came as a result from letting go of my ginormous dreams, and just living in the now.
Try it, you have nothing to lose… and everything to gain.
