@everchanginghorizon ๐ . . โจ #Taking_it_easy ๐ซ #LiveRefreshed ๐ซ When we carry a load of shoulds & shouldn'ts ๐ซ imposed on us by others ๐ซ we become ragged, struggling, trying to make our way uphill. . "Go faster, try harder, reach the top!" . . If life these days feels like just a struggle from the cradle to the grave, it could be time to shrug your shoulders & see what it feels like to walk without these characters on your back. . You have your own mountains to conquer, your own dreams to fulfill, but you will never have the energy to pursue them ๐ซ until you release yourself from all the expectations you've gathered from others ๐ซ but now think are your own. . Chances are they exist only in your own mind, but that doesn't mean they can't weigh you down. . It's time to lighten up & send them on their way. . . * A man's true life is the way in which he puts off the lie imposed by others on him. . Stripped, naked, natural, he is what he is. . This is a matter of being & not of becoming. . The lie cannot become the truth, the personality cannot become your soul. . There is no way to make the nonessential ๐ซ the essential. . They are not convertible. . * And striving towards truth is nothing but creating more confusion. . The truth has not to be achieved. . It cannot be achieved, it is already the case. . Only the lie has to be dropped. . . Recognize the fact that, as you are, you are a lie. . Manipulated, cultivated by others. . Striving after truth is a distraction & a postponement. . It is the lie's way to hide. . See the lie, look deep into the lie of your personality. . Because to see the lie is to cease to lie. . No longer to lie is to seek no more for any truth- -there is no need. . The moment the lie disappears, truth is there ๐ซ in all its beauty & radiance. . In the seeing of the lie it disappears & what is left ๐ซ is the truth. . . . #Awareness #Authenticity #MovingForward โ #Nothing_But_The_Best โ https://www.instagram.com/p/BnAunETgUrU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=au3ws670nxx9
