Sometimes we come to
only to find ourselves engaging in old thoughts or
behaviors, like a wind out of old time.
We wake up, look around, and say to ourselves
'Oh my, I know this one. Again??!! How did I get here??!'
Then we get up and dust ourselves off, as we are
hit with that moment of doubt; as we say to ourselves 'WILL I be able to walk
away from this, this time?'
But then , with a little aging , and maybe a
little help from our friends, we realize that whatever words or messages
are rolling through our mind or spilling out of our mouths, they are
irrelevant.
We get more and more adept at the teeter-totter of life, learning that
returning to the present moment, after taking a cue from our current state of
mind, and then leaving it be,becomes the most reliable way of gradually growing
a quieter calmer mind.
The only relevant thing becomes standing up and walking out of that old
illusory place, and very very simply getting on the path once again.
