the illusion of "fitting" in

we live in an intelligent universe.
our bodies are intelligent.
the consciousness that fuels us and animates us, is very intelligent.
but sometimes the intelligence gets blocked.
and we find ourselves living lives filled with apathy.
a life of routine and escape.
a life that says work to escape on the weekends and do it all over again.
a fast-paced life.
one in which we forget to even breathe.
but we have to ask ourselves, who are we living for?
who am i living for?
when we ask this question, we welcome the answer.
and the answers may vary but they will always come back to one underlying theme.
“i am living to be seen and loved.”
we are living to be validated. to be told we are good enough. to be accepted. to belong.
to fit.
to fit…
you want to fit because deep down inside you know that we are all pieces that fit into one puzzle. and we long for that fitting.
we long for that feeling we felt when we were whole. we long for that time when fragmentation and duality were not our reality.
we long for the oneness that we come from.
so we pretend and do whatever pleases everyone else (except ourselves) to fit.
but we got it so fucking wrong.
fitting happens when we fit inside ourselves.
consciousness is intelligent and it wouldn’t have split itself up into billions of tiny pieces (you & I) if it didn’t know what it was doing.
your body is a temple. inside this temple is where you live. when your inside world is harmonious, you end up “fitting” wherever you are in this world.
we fit …
when we stop trying to change ourselves.
when we stop trying to be liked by everyone and start to like ourselves.
when we stop rejecting the parts of ourselves we have labeled “not good.”
when we stop reacting to the duality and start responding from a state of empowerment.
when we take everyone and everything as part of ourselves.
when we stop blaming and start taking ownership of our experiences.
when we listen to our intuition and trust our gut.
when we surrender.
when we accept life, ourselves, and others wholeheartedly.
when we do these things, we end up finding harmony within ourselves. we stop the duality. we stop blocking ourselves from the intelligence/consciousness that we are one with.
when we don’t do these things, we perceive ourselves to be disconnected from our creator. and this perception is then projected outwardly. and everything that we believe to be true, will be reflected back to us.
this is really deep stuff.
simply put, when you stop thinking that you don’t fit, you start to fit.
but as long as you are looking to be accepted, or to belong, or to fit, then you will always be shown why you don’t.
this is what causes apathy.
and then the apathy causes us to block ourselves off from the intelligence that is available to us, that wants us to have magic and fulfillment and most importantly, wholeness, in our lives.
