you really do have to see your responsibility as an observer, and treat it as such. it's easy to get lost in judgment and further displace yourself from this crucial role. i try to always ask myself: are you really taking in all the data required for you to act in this moment? are you truly meeting the moment in unbiased clarity, or are you expecting/implanting data that is not available and projecting false conclusions? our minds are trained to bring a lot to the table when deciding to act, and i feel that any considerations beyond how to bring harmony and joy into each moment can only weight us down. if past experiences do not serve that means, why not cut it off from the moment? they say the winners write the history books. . . well i'm the winner in my book and that's how i'm writing it. the plot might not be all worked out yet but i know i'll be there right to the end: finding lessons, integrating, appreciating and growing.
maybe we can't decide what comes to us every moment, but i at least know i decide what to bring with me. anything other than observations made with a positive intent always finds a way to work against me and the life i say i want.
