And Its life thats it
are we to chase love, chase care, chase wonder?
Is that what the human experience consists of?
Loving and seeking love,
Seems like all we care about. Emotions up, emotions down.
The music, the art, the fashion, it's all about finding a mate. Finding a partner.
We have books, magazines, movies, instructional courses on how to be a better lover, how to find 'the one' and we look for it like it's our only mission?!?!?
Do you really believe the world when it tells you to grow up, get a job, get married, put your kids in school and die?
Are you a zombie?
Can you think for yourself?
Do you really feel like once these things are in place you will be safe, you will be un-touchable, no one will be able to hurt you?
What if you found out it's all a lie.
They told you what you wanted, and once you have it you will feel nothing. No better. No love. No fulfillment?
You can't access that part of humanity. Satisfaction.
We are told we NEED right from day one. "What do you want, what do you need, what can I give you to make you feel BETTER."
And we spend the rest of our lives trying to make ourselves feel better.
What is safety?
I think above love, we search for safety. Just like any other animals here we want to be alive. We don't want to be hurt or killed.
The difference? Emotions.
How do we protect ourselves from being emotionally damaged? We build up all these walls and barriers and separation devices. We think they are going to protect us from the enemy.
What if I told you the enemy lives inside you? The enemy can control your thoughts of you let it?
Who are you taking from.
Who are you stealing love from.
Comfort.
Is your comfort in your success, in your beauty, in your sexuality, and in your money? Friends?
What are you going to do when the sun goes away.
Your tan fades.
Your lover cheats on you.
A change a change a change a change. Your scared to move. Your scared to ask. Your scared to share yourself because you may be rejected.
Someone might not like you.
The longer we continue to live in fear, the more deeply we are going to damage ourselves.
And our children. And our children's children.
If your going to go and buy anything, buy yourself some confidence.
And stop blaming others for your lack of self esteem.
Love yourself, smile in the morning, and stop fighting your family. Because when everyone else turns away, your only identification is your blood.
