Battling Our Inner Ecosystem · Don't React – Take It As It Is
⁘ “Nature is what it is. That's all. There's a certain peace in all of that. If only we can stop reacting, what should and shouldn't be, we too might find peace. Seasons in our inner ecosystem. Emotional weather. As it is. Let it happen.”
The trees are what they are.
The hills are what they are.
The bedrock does not budge.
It is what it is.
Right?
And there's a certain peace in all of that.
If only for the briefest moment we can stop reacting,
having opinions about what should be and what shouldn't be,
missing what went and longing for what comes.
If we can get over that,
there is a certain peace and a certain presence there.
Come rains, come sunshine, snowfall, floods, whatever.
The full spectrum of the weather system.
It happens in it's necessary cycles.
And it's exactly the same in our inner ecosystem.
The weather of our emotions, the thoughts we have,
they come and go in their cycles.
As they are.
You don't need to get caught up in all of it.
Let it happen.
