the whole enchilada!

That’s how my life is going to be. That’s how it has always been (with the tiny exception of my mind telling me otherwise) Affirmation after affirmation my entire life but somehow one chooses to always look at the trying stuff. With no clarity on what I want from my life and constantly going back one forth on it I’ve finally decided its only one thing.

It was the single most transformative experience of my life - simply because i was exposed to a dimension I didn’t know existed, i experienced something I hadn’t imagined or visualized before, I didn’t have a comparable experience , in fact I hadn’t even thought of that as an experience yet. For me it was simply something I didn’t know that I didn’t know. And that was the beauty of it. What that brought forth was me experiencing sensations in my mind and body, understanding my mind and body, trying to separate myself from my mind and body. Initially i was amazed, wanted to talk more and more about it, read more, know more, but as months have passed, i am content simply experiencing more, the questions have subsided about what and why, and there is a strange surrender. It’s not like there are no questions, there are ...
