Dear Darling M:
Most people cannot accept themselves. They can't accept their thoughts, their feelings, their decisions, their actions...they wish they could change them and they spend a lifetime, regretting what they've said and done and that relates outward into their relationships, into the world.
They can't stand what happens in the world, and then they can't stand God for making it happen. They hate him, they love him, they fear him, they adore him and on and on. It's a life-long struggle with: gimme/gimme, blessme/blessme/saveme/sav
eme, loveme/loveme....BUT THERE IS NO PEACE, with themselves, with the world, with God.
They're always struggling, manuevering, pleading with God to make life different then it is. Always wanting to control their bodies, minds, earthly or celetial worlds. Always wanting life to go "their way", how they envision it. It's great to have a cause, to make things better for yourself and others, so why not do your bit and recognize that life has a way of doing it's own thing regardless of your desires and efforts. Many times it will go your way - but often it won't.
I tell you it's a waste of life to constantly fight with all your thoughts and emotions and desires and efforts. It's time to relax and accept yourself exactly as you are and recognize that your struggles are a product of the mind, of Life itself. It's time to say: Hey, this is my personality, this is my life, this is the world and I do the best I can, even if I think I don't.
Look-if you've already come this far, to ask this question of a crazy Dvorahji on the internet, speaking some radical truth --then why not go completely WILD? WHY not just JUMP in and accept yourself exactly as you are and BE HAPPY? What have you got to lose, confusion, doubt, unahappiness, regret, guilt, misery? Go Ahead honey - Jump In!
Love you, Dvorahji
