| Yesterday, we discussed how Students of Enlightenment might
better deal with our intensely emotional lives. What do we do
when three-dimensional crap happens? What do we do when our
emotions swallow us whole and threaten to obliterate our
existence? What do we do on a daily basis, when there is no end
in sight to our monotonous yet uncertain existence? The answer that you might not want to hear is that we must
embrace our emotion every change we get. When we try to escape
what we feel, we miss the point. Our emotions connect our
infinite spirit to three dimensional limitation. We feel a
certain way for a reason. When we understand the underlying
cause behind what we feel, we see the weakness in our foundation
and we can figure out how to strengthen those specific areas of
our selves. Your emotions point to the areas of your self that
require your attention the most. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Embracing our emotion is one thing. The trick is that we must
embrace our emotion without letting it overcome us. We’ve all
been depressed, and we have all experienced the attraction of
the Black Hole of Despair. We all know how good it feels to
surrender to emotion, to let go and allow it to envelop us
without resistance, and we all know that there is a point where
we must stop the self-indulgence, lest we lose ourselves in it. We must separate our emotions from the physical outcome of our
efforts, while pursuing our lives with as much passion as we can
possibly muster. It’s the game that matters, not who wins or
loses. As long as you play as hard as you possibly can and do
everything within the rules to do the best you can, you win. The
challenge is within you. External competition only represents
the internal competition inside each of us. We’re not separating our emotions from our daily lives. We’re
separating our emotions from the RESULT of our daily lives,
while conducting our daily lives with unrestrained passion. Knowing in the face of any turmoil that three dimensions is not
real should help us to separate our emotions from the physical,
but the illusion always seems the most real just when it’s most
important to remember that it’s not. We all know that nothing
feels more real than emotional pain, and we all know that
nothing can be more debilitating to our entire Being. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When crap happens in our lives, let go of the outcome. See the
big picture, and remember that everything will work out for the
best for everyone. Stop trying to control other people’s
destiny. Even if they are your kids, their spirit has plans for
them that supersede your plans for them. Emotional pain only
exists because of our emotional resistance. When we can’t seem to change anything, be patient with the time
delay, and be patient with yourself. Use the energy of
frustration to work harder on transforming your situation, and
on transforming yourself. Let go of trying to control situations and people. Lighten up
and enjoy your journey. Stop taking it all so seriously, because
it’s going to work out for everyone no matter what. Until Tomorrow… ~Quentin Danziger Quentin has over 20 years experience balancing what we refer to
