I’ve just re-noticed something i think is worth passing along.
When something becomes ‘important’ to us we have the tendency to take it to seriously…and this has the effect of making it hard.
When something is ‘important’ to us, there often seems to occur a mental shift where now we feel like we MUST resolve the issue, or…Or what? Or some really ‘bad thing’ is going to happen. But now we have exactly the wrong mind and emotional set for creating the resolution we want.
Maybe we need to lighten up.
It aint all that serious. In not to long a time, most likely less than a hundred years or so, we all going to be quite dead…at least as far as these bodies we currently occupy is concerned. I think maybe that’s a good perspective to keep in mind, to keep us from taking any particular problem too seriously.
I’LL BE DEAD.
YOU’LL BE DEAD.
AND BEYOND THAT WE DON’T KNOW WHAT LIES AHEAD.
THOUGH, WE SUPPOSE WE MIGHT KNOW,
IT COULD COME AS A BLOW,
THAT IT AINT SO.
BUT HELL, WHO KNOWS?
WOULD IT HURT TO LAUGH A LITTLE,
AND MORE, GO WITH THE FLOW?
And btw, i sure aint saying don’t go for what you want. i’m just saying, if you are being too serious ‘bout it’ it just seems to me you might be shooting yourself in the proverbial foot, so to speak.
I mean, how can you be happy if your too serious? Or, how can you be calm or at peace, if your too serious?
Just saying…
Anything that anyone gives attention to, becomes true
