The Divine Us Emily Serena

The structure of our existence lies on this concept of things “meaning something.” But we skipped our two feet over the concept of illusion & stated solidity on grounds of literal lack of solidity. We escaped the main truth: meaning can’t be there without our statement of it, without our creation of it & our firm grasp to keep it in place. Meaning isn’t something given; it’s something we give & mistakenly see as already there. We forget deeply our radical mastery of all meaning. We blind our eyes to the empowerment of the mere fact: we give & take away meaning to EVERYTHING. This blunt realization is a destruction of reality itself so generally we affirm inside, we’ll not look at this. But to be brave & sink into nihilism; is to lift our bodies to our core; our soul.

The concept that change should somehow be a fright to our existence is the issue, not the actual change itself. Our perception shapes our reality. … our perception of reality is always shaping reality, for it is the lens our 5 senses expand out of, that mix with our thoughts & emotions, to create our entire self. To flow with serenity, to ride the steady waters of inner peace, is to embrace this insight: releasing something is motivating. For all we are, is one thing, & our evolution onto other things is the point of all this existence situation we find ourselves in.

self love isn’t a thinking. it’s a being. it’s a feeling. self help aims to deny the aspects of our existence as they are in search of “better.” true love of our self is acceptance. it’s not meant to be a journey although it can appear that way. it’s meant to be simple, as love is. the conscious awareness of our own body, & intuition, is all we ever need. we can search until death for the “fix” or “how-to” to loving ourselves, or we can do it through radical acceptance.

our sense of survival keeps us in a loop of infinite schemes to get things to go our way. when things don’t go our way, we feel victimized or lower our self-esteem levels. “𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬,” a famous quote by Buddha. when we release our attachment to controlling our lives, we turn to gold. we feel mystery & adventure every moment. we stand for something greater than we ever thought we could exist as.

it’s not about thinking, or believing, what you want from life. it’s an embodiment of it. it’s a deep inner knowing. humans tend to chase the same desires without asking further questions into the nature of their own selves. we see this & copy each other. but to go beyond is where we find the bliss, freedom, & purpose we didn’t know was there.

we as humans have a tendency to treat ourselves below what we are meant to. all of us hold deep desires & harbor intensely beautiful emotions, & those are meant to be explored & experienced as the point of life. to manipulate ourselves into a reality we feel is “better” isn’t successful. we come as unique beings to feel, think, want, & create.
