Nothing from the outside truly controls you regardless of what it is. It’s the stuck thoughts attaching to what happens that causes them to control you…
Staying with the flow of what arises in our daily life has immense value in the process of waking up from the sleep of unawareness. What happens if awareness isn’t expanded upon is, stuck thoughts arise and control you; they become the master and you their slave. Stuck thoughts are what causes one to react to life in the way that they do. Nothing from the outside truly controls you either real or made up. It’s the stuck thoughts attaching to what happens that causes one to behave in a certain manner. When one awakens, the attachment to stuck thoughts lessens and their control lessens.
This is how it is with stuck thoughts, fear becomes crippling when it becomes stuck and takes you over. It’s doesn’t mean things won’t scare you, but it’s doesn’t have to be given the energy that turns it into fear. This applies to any stuck thought you become attached to. The associated thought becomes stuck and there’s no telling what behavior will arise. I guarantee you it’s not going to be a behavior that has love flowing as its base. Thoughts will arise, it’s the way the brain seems to be wired, but our energy doesn’t have to give them more power than they’re worth. We can cry our tears or be fearful of the future. We can dislike that things aren’t going the way we think they should be. The bottom line is it’s only when the thoughts are stuck that they are given the energy to stop the flow of truly living life, which causes not only your own suffering, but the suffering of all beings…
