Embracing the Journey: Letting Go of False Idols
Written on
Chapter 1: The Illusion of Security
Dear Beloved,
I wish to remind you of truths you may already hold. Seeking security in accumulating knowledge, meticulous planning, and external validation can often lead to disappointment. When you depend on others for approval or try to manage every situation, you set yourself up for challenges.
While gathering knowledge and preparing for life are essential skills, they do not inherently provide security. Life is inherently unpredictable; despite your best intentions, unexpected events can arise at any moment.
Validation, esteem, and approval from others are vital social aspects, yet not everyone can offer these when they are caught in their own emotional turmoil or differ in perspective from you.
Control and a sense of agency are crucial as you move through life, but the truth is, you cannot dictate events or the emotional responses of others. These occurrences are not personal. Random events take place, and people react based on their internal experiences rather than external factors.
The False Gods of Today This video explores how society often places undue importance on external validation and material security, leading to a disconnection from true self-worth.
So, where can you find genuine security?
Your security is found in embracing life's flow, recognizing that change is a constant, and there is a time for everything.
Finding True Esteem Esteem comes from understanding that your existence in this incredible universe is valid, equal to anyone or anything else, with no need for approval.
Understanding Control Your power lies in how you respond to life's unfolding moments, rather than attempting to manage them.
Life should not be viewed as a problem to solve or a situation to control. Instead, relax and enjoy the journey without fixating on outcomes or destinations. Take it lightly; as has been said countless times, the joy resides in the experience itself.
Remember, this moment presents an opportunity to connect with Love, allowing you to fully embrace who you are.
As ever, follow the path that awakens you to love.
Your Inner Wisdom
