upon watching a new fave tv show - a thought was sparked:
what if each person could meditate away a part of their-self that they didn't like? what part would that be for you? i'm not talking about 20lbs, or that crooked nose you think needs fixing - i mean the real stuff. like a tendency to get overly sad OR get angry OR be overly bubbly ... something like that.
there are so many filters that we create of ourselves so that people will see us in a light that is "best" of us (maybe for them). we don't always know that we're doing it, sometimes so much so that when it is off we may confuse those around us - even ourselves.
in my limited experience - having the gift of off-people and off-places is a saving grace. people and places where i may just let the guards drop and be what i am in that moment. unreserved. and in those moments i find myself looking in that clear mirror of light and love and thinking: i really want to adjust "this" and get rid of "that" and that's when (in those moments when i am really lucky) a calm hand rests over my heart and says: just be. you are perfect - flaws and all. go on this journey and trust that you are becoming exactly what you were meant to be - and yes, pain is a part of the process. it's okay. just be, and know that you are loved.
so - maybe after you think about that or those things you'd like to get rid of or adapt, think this:
you are loved.
