Trapped
Many aspects of life can make me feel trapped. A news of someone passing, for example, makes me to wonder the grief of those left behind. A news of a war makes me to question about love, about humanity.
When I hear that someone is emotionally in pain, I feel sad. Or, I read some news that I have nothing to do with and they upset me.
What's within me that I have created that is causing me to feel trapped? Something about these unrelated events are stirring me up. Am I trapped because I have been hiding and running away from facing the reality that life is to offer?
Perhaps I have not given life with enough love to live on? Perhaps, I have taken life for granted? Perhaps, I have not been proactive to gain a sense of joy with life? Perhaps, I feel that I have no control over what is happening? Am I feeling afraid to live?
I have to take charge to realize that life responds to me. What I see life to be determines the way I see the world. I have to make sure that I am looking at a positive view of the world.
And, I have to eliminate all thoughts that make me to see life negatively. Rumi says, 'What you seek is seeking you' and it is important that I inject positivity into each day.
I have to live my life to seek for divinity within. I have to continue to delete and erase my old belief system to see for a better future. I should not be influenced by those around me, by their events or their creations. What good will they do if I do not act upon them?
I love you. I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.
