“All moments are beautiful, only you have to be receptive and surrendering. All moments are blessings, only you have to be capable of seeing. All moments are benedictions. If you accept with a deep gratitude, nothing ever goes wrong.” ~ Rajneesh
Every so often, we let life go past us without us knowing. We are supposed to be on the receiving end of life and should experience life the way it is, not the way we want it to be.
The earth is beautiful, even if we have those who would pay a fortune to branch out to another planet. To them, every moment spent on this earth feels like suffering.
When the pain of everyday moments gets to people, they perceive each day as a struggle to get through. Yes, we all know, life is a struggle. But then, isn't being reactive and struggling each day too big a burden for us to carry?
When we try to react to everything, that's when we lose our inner peace. When we see every pain as suffering, that's when we stop surrendering to the world and live it as it is and not what we wished it to be.
A lot is going on today that most people are not seeing.
For example, civilization and technology have been the major turning point in the current world, and we are living in a way better state compared to the past, which is something we should all be grateful for, but instead most find themselves living behind screens, depressed and feeling alone.
Some think that the world and the virtual world are the same thing now. This is happening, but we are choosing to look the other way. This is not to say having a virtual world is a bad thing, as some people think.
The thing is that life is to be lived and not to be typed and posted only on our profiles. If we look around today, most people find it hard to talk to strangers or walk comfortably in their neighbourhood.
Everyone has something so important to do and demons to face that they can't see or find other humans interesting talkless of their immediate environment. It's now rare to see people hiking or hunting in nature.
It’s either they are in their heads chasing a big dream or in their beds dreaming a big dream. Dreams and realities are two different things, and it's okay to dream, but it's also okay to be grateful for life and show gratitude for everyday health and wealth. The world is always going to be a beautiful place, whether we see it now, later or not.
Are you living and surrendering to life, or do you want it to bend to your will and dreams until you do? Share your thoughts in the comments…
