Living Life Once Removed
Living submersed in thought unawares, becomes a barrier between me and a direct connection with my life experience.
It is a veil between me and the people, places and things in my life.
It is what I call “living life once removed.” It is living life inauthentically, or through the filters, learned behaviors and unexamined beliefs of the thinking mind.
Even and especially when those learned behaviors no longer benefit me, or feel good.
When you realize that you are the eyewitness to your stories, as opposed to living submersed in them, you are Awake.
The thoughts themselves are not detrimental. In fact, the actual thoughts are more like floating butterflies, clouds passing across the sky, or leaves blowing in the wind.
The detriment of thought lies in believing it. When you realize that you are the eyewitness to your stories, as opposed to living submersed in them, you are Awake.
Welcome home.
Empowerment:
Today I intend to notice thought, the mind’s judgements and opinions, so that I may discard them and experience a direct connection to my life.
