Let Go!

Have you ever gone through periods were you cant sleep? You start to doubt yourself over trivial things, activities you are used to doing right are just not working, you feel this anxiousness, the world feels hard and heavy as if you had someone judging the things you do and say, almost like a haze of random uncontrolled emotions and doubtfull thoughts, like a fog...


....then after a good night sleep or a restful nap you suddenly forget about all those powerful emotions you experienced just as fast as you forget a nightmare you found yourself trapped in.

Why do we feel so unsheltered at times?.... is it because we desespereratly want to express our stuff, our opinions emotions spirit... is it our tendency to be honest human beings or is it our tendecy to be selfish?

The tree grows out of a seed, the seed contains inside all the information the tree needs to enjoy its stay and contribute to his fellows treemates and fellow residents of Planet Earth. What, all information?, Yes, all it needs is a place it can develop, from seed to tree his journey into greatness is all taken care of... we too are the same, from seed to human our journey into greatness is all taken care of... is it? are we just Ok if we have and do the necessary to survive?....

From a Taoist point of view we are just Ok if we let the flow of life guide us, the river of conciousness if you will, doesnt this sound nice just to let go do nothing and everything is taken care of... makes me kind of lazysh just thinking about it, wait, then why do we see people who are just too flowy get into unhealthy habbits, eating too much drinking too much being rude, but hey they seem to have no problems (they talk about)....
Reminds me of Jim...



Why do we do Anything then?. If we can be happy doing nothing why not just chill back relax, let the seed do its thing, when did we get the notion that we had to do anything, certainly it was at an early age but with what purpose, some say its to contribute to society some say its to get a name for yourself some say its just the way things are...

We find ourselfs doing things with No idea why we are doing them, last year we were doing this, now we are doing that, it seems exciting, thrilling, dangerous, scary, rediculous, "not me" and all the rollercoaster of emotions, experiences and thoughts about the things your doing but never the why you are doing them. You just dont pay attention to that stuff.... it seems unproductive, pointless.

Deep down you want to make sense of this apparently efforless, eficient world, we have planes, cars, televisions, we can travel space, eat hot food in a minute, get all kinds of services that can satisfy our needs, why not just keep going?... we want to make sense of it but we dont, we keep on going, this little habit we have creates conflict inside, and any conflict that stays for too becomes a self sutaining cancer, it drains us of energy and creates the fog.

Here lies the paradox of this conflict, we want to keep going and do better in our lifes but the way to do better is to stop..... and Let Go!. Let that stuff go, keep your house clean, get introspective, realise it is only stored up stuff, a bad habit that must be accepted before it goes away.

This is the foundation of any ambition we will archive.

Clarity.

This way we will live a clear life, we will have our why´s settled so they can work with us as a driving force for our dreams.

Take the time you need to get clear, it is a life investment you must take to live at your fullest.

The fog clears and the Sun shines.


Pablo.
