What comes out of our mouths isn't necessarily indicative of our intentions. Time and time again, I find it compelling when I see someone or even catch myself mid-sentence about to commit perjury. I often ask myself, "Why am I saying this?
Sometimes we can be too harsh with each other. In a one-sided attempt to get our point across, we end up just shouting at deaf ears. I know why we do it, but I want you to know too. I want you to see that proving your point is not as important as agreeing to keep the peace between us.
These are the daily thoughts for the month of August (2021)
Insight is the key to unlock ignorance’s cage. When you’re climbing the mountain of consciousness, you gain a vantage point over your previous and current predicaments.
The world is here to entertain you. To do whatever it can to trip you up, but it’s nothing personal. Because you’re not a person, you’re the creator!
The mind wanders—from here to there & from now to then. It can act as a time machine. But the price to use it is that we leave our bodies behind.
Keep your warmth inside you, protective thoughts like a shield to lousy weather. And you shall endure all the world has to offer—good, bad or neutral.
Competition is an unconscious issue deriving from a belief that we project onto the world.
As above, so below. Never forget or undermine the power of your thoughts. You were special before you were born. The world tries its best to convince us we are ordinary.
Between the tried and true, and our communities supporting the new ideas we have to offer, there is the possibility of struggle. We contend with ourselves—moving forward at a fast pace, quicker than we anticipated, how freedom can turn into regrets.
