@[Lavana1111:16915] yes... yes... sometimes people engage in affairs for years and years - like long marriages or a profession - they transform that in the idealized pathway of their lifes an hold themselves onto that for a decade or more until everything collapses and, then, they start to blame themselves for that - they look for someone or for a moment or a decision in particular to blame, trying obsesssively to find the cause of it because it was a horrible injure to the image that they created of themselves. They create a image of themselves and hold themselves onto it as a way to feel confortable - as it was their way home - something entirely certain and that will always be - it becomes their rock. Also, it makes them feel superior than others - that rock they hold themselves onto - and they start to treat it as possession, feeling that owning that rock makes them somehow wealthier than others - better than others - but such a feeling is toxic and addictive. In fact, is the rock that owns them - it becomes their master and their prision - it is their ego dominating them. Their ego pervades their mind - which is why your mind is not always listening - your ego makes you see only what makes you feel confortable and superior - and that's why it is so hard to "let go of your ego" - to change - to abandon the rock - to abandon the need to admire the image of yourself. It can be a terrifying experience, like a flood devastating the idealized pathway of your life - which is also the devastation of what became your prision. The flood also brings the freedom, the abundance of a new cycle - it is you leaving the prision, renewing yourself and starting to build a new life - a new path. However, with the new path a new rock can come - it can become a new prision to abandon later and there will not be a particular decision or person to be blame for it. The real cause is the attitude of creating an image of your self to admire - a rock to hold onto - forgeting that there is something you carry within youself that makes your mind not always listening. |
