Our Greatest Tool Can Be Our Greatest Weapon

in steemit •  7 years ago 

Hey Cali, I'm new to steemit...just curious. Enjoyed reading your post. Particularly what you said about thinking self destructive thoughts.

I'm also very aware of dealing with the self destructive human nature. (The abyss or dark side) That can be dangerous. I'm fascinated with changing my own reality. Personally having done a lot of escapism. Focusing on & choosing good thoughts or words. (like that) Words can elevate our reality...inspiring!

How is the journey going for you so far? Have you seen a lot of changes?

Amazing things are developing in the near future for me. Since being back from the cycling journey though Africa...that almost cost me my life. I guess you can say the whole dynamic of my existence is evolving now for the better. Exciting...good people are coming into my life, and dynamic people showing interest in my story. Please follow my journey too cali I am honoured and inspired to connect. As for steemit I'm equally optimistic and intrigued...smile...early days!

That sounds fascinating, Cedric! I am definitely following.

Welcome...interesting your post says "finding my way out of the abyss" if you read my introduce myself post...I also talk about the dealing with the abyss...namaste!

I suppose many of us are resisting the abyss these days. The word came from one of my earlier posts "Journey from the Abyss to the Clouds."

One of my favourite quotes on the abyss, that I discovered on my epic journey was true...don't resist the abyss...hope that gives you courage.

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it's a feather bed.”
