Greatness Adapts, but Love Wins.

in life •  7 years ago  (edited)

Most humans dislike change. And some love it.

Most humans hate themselves and/or the surroundings they are in.

And some love.

Love themselves so much so that they have confidence in their thoughts, actions, and life direction.

Love the environment they are presently in because they know it can and will change at a moment's notice.

Love the progression that change brings in their mind, bodies, and souls.

Greatness adapts, but love wins.

Such a simple statement yet it's truth and application runs deep.

Name one person who hasn't experienced change in their life?

Nope didn't think you could.

It's because it's what's supposed to happen.

Change is supposed to happen.

We as humans are supposed to be moving around spreading love, ideas, and energy. Not holed off in a maze never leaving.

We are supposed to progress through life eventually reaching enlightenment and achieving our life purpose, whatever that may be.

Progression, not perfection.

But guess what most us humans do?

We strive for perfection.

We strive for a mini reality that doesn't change.

That's "secure."

But little do we realize this is just a smokescreen.

It's a perception.

It's not true.

That little world you are creating for yourself where you stay in your bubble, do the same things, stay in the same location, talk to the same people.

That's a false world you are creating for yourself.

Do you not what happens to people who create false stuff and false gods?

If you don't, just look up history and see what happens to false prophets, people claiming to do this or that.

Let me save you some time.

It doesn't end well.

So why are you doing it?

Why are you afraid of change?

Why have you holed yourself in the maze that you call "life."

The worst part is such a simple answer.

You are afraid.

Afraid of achieving your life purpose.

Afraid of success.

Afraid of what it might feel like to actually do the right thing and be on the path to achieving your life purpose.

My suggestion:

Go find a mirror and look at yourself and repeat the following:

"I love you"

"I love you for who you are now, who you have been, and who you will become."

"I love you [insert your name]."

Repeat this three times every day and just watch how your life unfolds.

If you don't love yourself, how can you love anyone else?

Or how can anyone else love you?

They can't.

At least not in the true form of the word love.

So next time you are presented with an opportunity, take a few moments, collect yourself and go find a mirror and repeat the following:

"I love you"

"I love you for who you are now, who you have been, and who you will become."

"I love you [insert your name]."

And then respond to the opportunity.

I have a feeling you will soon learn that:

Greatness adapts, but love wins.

Lots of deepity here I think!

About change - the idea of staying in your bubble, repeating your daily routine over and over - I think we should strive to strike a sort of balance. Anyone who ever made it in any field, was someone who kept doing the same thing over and over. You can't become good at anything unless you keep repeating it ad nauseam. But at the same time we should avoid getting stuck in the rut of routine, creating a false world for ourselves as you say. Change however often happens despite us, and it punctures our bubble in defiance of what we want or think. The Buddhists consider Change as one of the fundamental truths about the universe.

Wow you just touched on one of the biggest things in life my friend: balance.

And also the contradiction of words. Because like you said you nee to keep doing something forever to prove that you want it, yet you can't stay shielded from reality.

I really like this comment thank you so much :)

Change is good. It is the frequency and intensity of changes though that can mess many people up, and that is what scares people. Fear of the unknown forces many to reject change and stay within the bubble they created.

Amennnnn.

And people for whatever reason don't realize fear is fake as well.

It isn't real.

We make up fear as an excuse.

Namaste buddy :)

nice post

Jesus loves you :)
