Looking but not seeing, thinking but not being
Since I’ve started following my purpose in life, my love of learning has been insatiable! I mean, I just can’t get enough of it! Anything that I can get my hands on to read or listen to or see… I’m like an endless bottomless pit… I just want more and more. I absolutely LOVE learning about life and how we tick but I’ve noticed I’ve been in a solemn mood lately. It really all started when I started seeing the human race as diseased – when I see people fight, kill, steal, hurt and all of the above and when I feel a little hopeless. However, I also have the realization these are just thoughts and they shouldn’t stop me from being and making a positive difference even to one other person in this world. I’ve also come to the realization that I’ve been looking but not seeing and thinking but not being. What do I mean by this? I wrote in my gratitude journal last night, as I had stopped for a few days, and I was reminded there is beauty in life, way more than there is ugliness and when you surround yourself with thoughts, there is also all the space around the thought that is a blank canvas just waiting for us to spread our love, our creativity, our joy. If you’ve ever meditated, you know what I am talking about… if you haven’t, then I urge you to explore because there is a lot more to life than just what we see.
Last night, I wrote also in my powerful questions journal… I asked “Who am I?”, then went to sleep. When I woke up the thoughts came to me that I needed to just ‘be’ and stop thinking so much! One of the reasons I know I am thinking too much and not being is that I love to laugh, I grew up finding humour in almost everything, I mean almost everything had a funny twist in life and these days, I’m not finding the humour as much in life… could be just age ha! but I believe I need to let that part of me come out and just have some fun in life again.
Keep loving and learning and making a difference, however big or small!
