Everything in life is learned and this is what makes up your life. Regardless if it’s beneficial for you or not, it will still be done because it‘s what you have learned; what is learned is used to change the way that you feel. You spend a lot of time focused on learning to use the most beneficial tools you think you need. This is why alcohol is so widely used because it works so well to change the way a person feels. Drugs work well also, as does gambling, sex, work, food, music, TV etc. These are just some of the distractions used to change the way you feel, but understand when you can just be with the way things are with no needed change, that’s when you will not have the need that makes you reach for a reward. When this happens you will know a peace like no other; you will be in a place that few go. Be there regardless of how you feel and you will understand that feelings aren’t based in facts, they just are; the reward for knowing this is peace is priceless.
Who are you without your created story; a story that’s not needed to live. You would exist without it; the real kicker is the essence of a spiritual awakening is to undo the story you have spent your entire life creating. A story that has been created to make you who you think you need to be, but because you are now starting to become aware that this created story has caused most of your problems, you have to unlearn what you yourself have put in place. This is why people reach outside themselves for answers, to use the defense mechanisms that have put in place to cope with life. Once you are aware of this, you can take action to remove your coping mechanisms; this is how you change your future…
