My Past is Dying

“There is only one courage and that is the

 courage to go on dying to the past, not to

collect it, not to accumulate it, not to

 cling to it. We all cling to the past, and

because we cling to the past we become

 unavailable to the present.”

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

I honestly can’t be bothered trying to explain in any fancy way all that I have been through over the last few weeks, it’s too complicated and deep within in:

• Being without internet access
• Feeling very ill and afraid
• Seeing the energy in an 80-year-old
• Hearing how hard I am on myself
• Wondering what brings ME joy
• Questioning why I do what I do, for what reason?
• Recognising some more “shoulds”.

 

Another layer of who I thought I was is peeling off,

another part of my past is dying.

   Just sending you gentle hugs; even though you’ve said nothing I can strangely relate…
   Hope things feels more settled and peaceful soon… xx

   Hugs from me too. Give up the past, it really is dead and today is all we have. Pity it’s raining! No seriously, it’s not even today, it’s here right now, right this minute and generally all is well right at this minute.
