NOT EVERYTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS

"Because not everything is what it seems, everything is relative and that not everything can be understood, we can only accept it."

WE ARE NOT ALONE

 Accepting a fact whatever it is, is one of the greatest acts of courage that I may face. As I said in other blog entries, the more work the acceptance also work many other facets of my being, everything is interconnected. Often these connections go unnoticed until the time comes and merely you become aware of it.

 But be aware no means understand it or how interpret it. That's where the hard work comes in. 

And whatever it takes I'll finish it!

THE POWER OF NOW

“Don't look for peace. Don't look for any other state than the one you are in now; otherwise, you will set up inner conflict and unconscious resistance. Forgive yourself for not being at peace. The moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace. Anything you accept fully will get you there, will take you into peace. This is the miracle of surrender” 

 Eckhart Tolle

AT THE END OF THE CORRIDOR

 I realized that I don’t care how far is the "exit" and really doesn’t bother me, because it is an illusion, what will happen when I get to the door marked exit?, therefore likely that when I open it I’ll glimpse once again, another long corridor and another door at the end. Each door open and crossed, arguably it's a goal I have accomplished in my life. That's why I have to manage my energy and decide which doors I will open, as this would be impossible to open them all.

 I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to open the door to acceptance, proud to have been able to achieve this goal.

 Once opened, I can only keep learning, keep moving forward and "accept" what is behind that threshold.

“The doors that remain open for me are a mystery, only time has the answer”

UNDER THE SKIN

"What is truly interesting about each of us, is hidden under the skin, under the shell that we constantly charge, if we had not that shell, we would all be equal."

We live in a planet full of life, nuances and contrasts. We are all different, but we all have something in common, we have come to this world to learn and try to do my best. All decisions we've made throughout our lives, from the most mundane and insignificant to the most difficult, have led us to where we are now.

In my case, for better or worse, all these decisions have led me to realize that I have to work among other things the "acceptance", I have to learn to accept the consequences of those decisions. Acceptance and forgiveness is the only way I can move forward with my life, freeing me from this false "guilt" and the sense of living a life that is not for me.

I strive to live my life as best I can, so I decided to continue my journey and my learning. 

Because, Is not life a continuous decision-making?

RADICAL ACCEPTANCE

“Clearly recognizing what is happening inside us, and regarding what we see with an open, kind and loving heart, is what I call Radical Acceptance. If we are holding back from any part of our experience, if our heart shuts out any part of who we are and what we feel, we are fueling the fears and feelings of separation that sustain the trance of unworthiness. Radical Acceptance directly dismantles the very foundations of this trance.”
