Day 87 - Strength
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to want an easier way instead of seeing how the challenges in life actually strengthen me
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to go into blame in a tricky situation, instead of maximizing my responsibility, taking a deep breath and being grateful for the challenge at hand
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to take the 'strengthening' to an extreme opposite polarity, where I create unnecessary struggle in my life because I believe I must suffer to grow, so within this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not realize that focus on priority is #1 as starting point, and from here, welcome the challenge. It is stupid to welcome challenge for no reason, we only have one life here, am I going to waste it just doing difficult shit with no clear purpose?
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to associate strength with the physique and outward appearance of a man or woman, how much they can 'lift' with their body. Real strength is a more like tree, interconnected with all life, always giving, always maximizing itself in its fullest purpose.
Ultimately its not any 'image' its a human being fully self-realized, but to get there requires a strengthening of my understanding of how life works in fact, and LIVING it here through my moment to moment actions
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to see myself as someone who is only capable of so much, as if there is a limit on my ultimate growth, not realizing seeing and understanding that in each moment there is a maximum potential and as I find this, it opens up my next level through the Law of Accumulation
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to make a 'challenge' something detrimental to me, because I go into thinking about it, which actually drains my physical energy thus making the challenge something that harms me, all by my own self-doing, as I know better because I have self forgiveness and the ability to correct myself
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not be present through my day, where I have the day 'ahead' of me, and the thoughts that will pop up in how I think/feel about the day ahead, then AS I progress through the day and then by the END of the day, as I actually walk through it all, I realize that I always end up being grateful for facing the points, going full on through my day
I realize that to actually be proud of myself, to have a sense of real self respect and self love, this comes from me doing the difficult shit that advances my purpose and process
I realize that as I stay grounded in my breath, and do new things, there is the feedback mechanism so any failure that is grasped in awareness becomes a valuable source of insight and ultimately strength within me
I realize that our culture is not yet valuing real strength, as a standing up, facing one's fears, being part of the solution for the change of humanity. Right now 'strength' is going to the gym and looking strong, yet on the inside being weak in our real MATURITY of actually caring for our fellow humans, through looking at the real root of the problem which is education and holding on to our ineffective programming.
Real strength is changing ourselves and supporting the change in others to stand up within all of this. I don't give a fuck how big your muscles are, how big is your CARE muscle... that is real strength
I commit myself to be an example of real strength, showing what it looks like to stand up and walk, to push the edge of what is possible, and to make it then easy to create the solution on planet earth
