You bring the meaning to life.. so act like it: Just Passing Through
There is nothing for you to do in this very moment except be.
Think of your emotions as a tunnel, a temporary hollow dark path that leads to light and more clarity. Your emotions and thoughts are just passing through. Your circumstances are just passing through. The lesson you are learning is just passing through. Stop attaching your sense of self to objects, people and experiences that are just passing through. Our egos (and greater society) make the gross miscalculation that the finite is eternal while the eternal is finite. But rather its quite the opposite. The finite, temporary and fleeting is real yet not concrete. The eternal is real and concrete.
The part of you that can observe your emotions and thoughts. That knows you are conscious. That feels all your feelings. That bridges your awareness to your senses. A sense of power and peace begins to rise within you, when you exercise your ability to observe whatever is in front of you with non-attachment.
Observe, don’t absorb. Quote from Pinterest
It was a rainy Wednesday and the sky was filled with clouds in SoCal. I was getting ready to head into the office to see some of my favorite stretch clients of the day. A mature gentleman gracefuling getting stretched in his 80s is next on my bench. We chit chat often on a variety of topics from health, physiology, philosophy, chiropractic and the body’s trauma response. He shared that it’s easy (and natural) to get caught up with expectations, hurts and fear. Yet one thing that he’s understanding better in his life, is that we all are just passing through. It’s a matter of how you touched others lives not just what you did.
That was a reminder for me that just like a rain storm.
All is just passing through.
This got me thinking about the way we each are just passing through on this earth. That everything around us and in us - is in fact just passing through. The only certainty in this life is that shifts will inevitably take place. We each are just passing through. We each are faced with one choice. How will we let it all pass through? From what perspective will we base our thoughts, emotions, choices on. Are we interacting with others from our heart space or our root space most of the time?
What's the rush? You have eternity. & You have no time.
Life is fleeting. Yet there is an abundance of time. Life is meaningful. Yet there is no inherent meaning to life. Life brings you lessons. Yet only you can learn and gain from them. Life bends to your perspective - curated based on your attention that forms your state of being. You only have one life. The one you are consciously living now. Who are you choosing to be IN it.
As an eternal being having a human experience. this is your reminder that YOU are just passing through.
Till the next one ~ Sai 🪬
