Awareness - Be happy right now

in #story6 years ago

We have no way to change anything. You can not know in advance that we will definitely be happy in certain conditions and situations. We can only imagine it, suppose, based on previous experience. It is a great illusion to think that something, no matter what, will make us feel in the future in a certain way. First we fantasize about feelings and feelings that we lack (based on our experience or someone else's), then we come up with the circumstances and conditions under which these feelings and feelings will necessarily appear. But do not take into consideration that the informative value of someone else's experience for us is no more than 10%. We judge by external circumstances, and the remaining 90% is conjectured.

And the race begins. We call it life. And the real life passes by, not taking into account our fictional plan. We sin on the unfriendliness of the universe, but she does not even know, for there are too many of us and you will not please everyone. And if some circumstances and echoes with our expectations and desires, then it's just a coincidence, it's not due to our strength to dream or the ability to set and achieve a goal, if any, to be.

But what about the destination, your way, and after all, if you follow it, do you see the results and realize it? Yes, that's it. It would probably be quite strange if we were just like garbage in the river dangling and moving where the current will lead.

We all initially have a certain set of resources that give us access, so to speak, to different manifestations of life. It's like playing on the net. Without you, the game will still take place, but if you have the skills and knowledge to play it or the key (password) - you can connect. And then the most interesting. There can be different events, situations. Your actions can be very diverse. But the main algorithm, the code, is already laid. And this algorithm provides - who, what and how should do to be happy, successful, etc.

In us, everything was originally laid down - to achieve everything that we want. We can not choose who and where to be born, we can not choose our parents and the conditions in which we grow and develop. All that we can, is to feel ourselves in the current moment.
And the most interesting! We can choose how we feel. This is very similar to superpower)

When you realize that there is no point in wanting to feel and feel something that you do not have at this moment (but it must necessarily be, as you think), and even more so to imagine and imagine the conditions and circumstances under which this should be felt - he will let you go. The race will slow down. A pile of unclosed gestals and frustrations will disappear in the air. You will understand that 99% of all your thoughts are fantasies, unresolved problems, unfulfilled desires, disappointments, vain expectations, more precisely - a chain of fictitious or past stories that cause first sensations, and then the corresponding thoughts.

It ceases to flow, literally through your fingers, a huge amount of energy, which is spent on continuous mental activity. You can breathe in full. And you start to notice and focus on the choice. Choosing what to feel for you at this moment.

We found out that there is no point in wanting something else. We have only this. And can there be a choice about how we should feel this, reject or accept it. We are not enemies to ourselves? It is clear that if we reject or deny something, it becomes bad for us, and we try to close the gap with fantasies. They are not fulfilled and everything continues to go around in a circle.

There is only a moment ... like in a song ... We only have this moment. Where we feel everything at once, and how it is.

Accept him. What do we lose? It will be unusual. But definitely not bad. Worth a try. Do not waste time on empty expectations and fantasies. Live here and now. Be happy right at this very moment)
