There's not a right way or a wrong way to meditate. I guess as anything in life the question is what is your motive to do something.
The reason why I meditate is to have peace of mind. I have a vary degree of OCPD.
I had to start somewhere. Keep an open mind. Try new concepts.
I got clean and sober at a very young age of 22. I hit a major bottom. I lost everything I had that was important to me.
I lost my wife, child, career, hopes , dreams. Most of all I lost myself. I didn't give a honeysuckle anymore nor cared if i lived or die.
I was hospitalized for over a month for a suicide attempt. I'm not sure if i actaully saw god when I died.
I hated the doctors and nurses for bring me back to life. I hated everyone. I hated god. Most of all I hated myself.
Living and breathing was like knives cutting me. I lived the next 2 years of my life in a state of ultimate blizzt. I checked the fresia out.
Bascailly another way of trying to kill myself...the slow way. Drugs/alcohol abuse and the insane life style I was living was just that. I putted myself in harms way on purpose.
Some poeple would say god was looking out for me or I was under grace.
Perhaps it is also grace that's holding me up today....IDK
I started attending AA/NA. I needed help. Of cours i didn't want to stop drinking, using.
Ya gatta be out of your fucken mind..if you thought I just woke up oneday and said...woohoo I ma
stop getting messed up today.
What would motivate me or lure me into the rooms of recovery???.... Pussy of course. God knew me better than me
Anyhow...the last fucken thing i wanted to hear was about GOD, Higher power, Spirituality, praying and meditating..
What kept me going back to those meetings ????....Pussy of course.lmao
Seriousely...all of that kind of messed me up in a different way. At that piont in time of my life.
I didn't really gave a honeysuckle to being with...
I started spending a lot of time in nature. I found a lot of peace
That when I kind of grasp...being in the moment, letting go, being ok in my own skin. JUST BE
I can do living and walking meditations today...It's a skill I've develope over the years..
mmmm...no, I can't rid of all the thoughts in mind...I don't belive I'm suppose to.
God gave me a brain to think and use...OK, I use my mind and brain..not the other way around.
I'm the master of my thoughts, mind
I simply let go or don't hang on to my thoughts. Don't figure it out. Being transparent. Just like an observe
watching a parade of endless thoughts...Eventually my mind will come to a rest. Then I'm in a state of peace.
What I resist, persist...
I have to keep it simple today...becuae i ma a SmaRtAss
Jenni told me that i didn't have to earn her love for reasons....
It's also becuase I nevered had to earn god'd love either.
Acceptence.....accepting life on life's terms can be a son of a ***** sometimes....
On the flip side....accepting god's love (gift). I'm derseving of god's love. I'm more than good enough. It's my herriatage and right.
The same prinicple applies to a person...I deserve her love. I'm more that good enough.
The same principle aslo applies to my life...I'm more than good enough. I deserve to be happy. To live a happy prosper life. It's my herritate.
The question is...Am I willing to accept this simple truth??? Or am i go to think about it and come up with millions of reasons why i don't deserve it.
