THE HARDEST PART OF TRYING TO EMPTY YOUR MIND IN ORDER TO FALL ASLEEP OR TO PRAY OR TO MEDITATE IS THAT THIS EMPTY SPACE IS AN OPEN INVITATION FOR ALL YOUR WORRIES AND ANXIETIES TO RUSH IN AND TAKE UP RESIDENCE.

WHERE DOES ONE PARK HIS/HER MIND WHEN TRYING TO NOT THINK ABOUT ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR? Date June 3, 2022 In relation to emptiness IT IS NOT THAT YOU ARE TOO EMOTIONAL THAT SHOULD MAKE YOU WORRY, IT IS WHEN YOU ARE EMPTY AND CAN NO LONGER CARE. Date April 28, 2021 In relation to emotional IT IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY TRUE THAT ONCE ONE STOPS HAVING A NEGATIVE SELF-IMAGE AND NEGATIVE SELF-TALK, THAT WHAT FOLLOW ARE ONLY UPLIFTING POSITIVES. OFTEN, INSTEAD OF FINALLY EXPERIENCING THE UNDEVELOPED POSITIVE SELF-IMAGE, AND POSITIVE SELF-TALK, THERE IS NOTHING…NO SENSE OF SELF, NO SENSE OF JOY, OF PURPOSE, OF GOALS, OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS, OF SPIRITUALITY, OR OF COMMUNITY. THERE IS ONLY EMPTINESS. TO MOST OF US, THIS EMPTINESS IS MORE LONELY AND MORE FRIGHTENING THAN ANY NEGATIVE SELF-IMAGE OR ANY NEGATIVE SELF-TALK. Date July 2, 2022 In relation to emptiness
