Reborn Into Your New World · Beyond the Inner Tensions
⁘ “Maybe it's not the feeling you prefer. You so prefer, battle with the feels. Tension and suffering. Sometimes it's the end of the little inner world you created. Reborn into a new frame. Be mindful of how you weave that new world of yours.”
Maybe it's not the feeling that you prefer.
But you see, right there is the problem.
You so prefer.
We prefer particular mental states and
unprefer, avoid, reject other mental states.
Battle with them.
That leads to unnecessary tension and suffering.
That's avoidable.
So the birds keep on singing in their nests.
Minding their own business.
Not yours.
The sea keeps on rushing to the shore.
The tides keep on turning.
And yes, sometimes it is the end of your world.
A particular world you created for yourself.
And then it's time to be reborn into a new world, a new frame of reference.
Decluttering, clearing away that which led to your decay, your demise.
Holding on to the essence that was pristine, that was clear.
In there too, the sun keeps on shining,
the moon keeps on reflecting, and the stars keep on glowing above.
Be mindful of how you weave that new world of yours.
