Rugged path of life

3 posts in this topic

This earthly ride has bumpy roads. Each stage ends with a test, a checkpoint that exposes our weaknesses in a way, sometimes completely unexpected. Reality is not about doing good to the ego. It's a school of survival where your only enemy is yourself. The nature of earthly lessons is always the specific violence with which you defend yourself against what is outside and, even worse, what is inside. Nevertheless, over time you will recognize that the greatest battles you have already fought and those still ahead of you are true grace. This is where each of us has a chance to truly expand our inner kingdom, to grow. Only there. I learn from everyone. I follow the path of a warrior not because I am one, because everyone is one to a certain point. I stopped deceiving myself that there was another option. I'm sick of this new age cherry-picking spirituality and all this bullshit about things that the ego has no idea about because it can't have. The recipe is simple. Eat it as it is, don't feel sorry for yourself. Life doesn't revolve around you, you're not the fucking center of the world. Everyone here suffers in their own way. Understanding this helps awaken empathy. Don't compare yourself, don't judge others. The only person you can compare yourself with is yourself. Can I be better today than I was yesterday? Be honest with yourself, don't run away from your own crap, don't powder it with some idiotic narrative. Don't be afraid of falls. You are a human. You will fall again, you will harm yourself and others, not once. Maybe even today. You have fallen - get up. It will get a little easier over time. You will finally gain humility when you realize that the person you identify with really doesn't know shit. I won't write that I love you all, because it's not true. Not yet. I still have many falls ahead of me. The only thing I know is that the One I am will lift me up when I am ready to grab His hand, always stretched out towards me.

That's right, the fight only ends with death. What does end is fighting against the fact of fighting. I don't do it, I know this is a war, it's completely obvious. In wars you don't complain that things are uncomfortable or dangerous, or that there shouldn't be a guy with a rifle in front of you, it's so unfair, why me? There should be a rainbow and a pink pony. No, you simply try to kill him, knowing that the person who dies could be you, or that both of your legs could be amputated. That's life, whether we like it or not. Better to sharpen your senses, deepen your understanding, be absolutely objective, observe others and the traps they fall into, observe the traps you constantly fall into, play the game, have the ambition to become a master of the game, every day a little better, the vision clearer, the will firmer, adapted, flowing with the circumstances, accepting your particular ones, making them an advantage, getting the best out of everything, observing the now as a well from which you can extract the substance of existence, try to extract the most alive, the best.
