Panic
Rush
Hurry
Anger
Desperation
These are some of the names of my spiritual disconnection.
I am days away of being sober for 8 months. I truly feel more awake now than I have ever done. I am face to face with many demons. I subjugated myself to such detrimental forces that I denied who I am for a very long time.
We each have a spark of divinity in us. It is the true self.
Violence to the spirit is willing self-destruction. We do it every day by panicking about the food we’re eating, how we can control other people (which we can’t), worrying whether we’re doing the right thing.
Increasingly, I look for the humanity in interactions, in daily life.
We have choices, many choices.
To me, the most important choice is to take care of ourselves first, to be integrated, kind, calm and rational.
This, to me, is the only foundation to build a solid and meaningful life, worthy of your dreams and your calling.
