I have spent much of my life dreaming of another life — another body, another brain.. Another life with wounds different than the ones that lurked my existence… perfection. However, with deep insight, I began to see that while being in this constant state of nonacceptance, there was something inside that I never wished to change — that something was a piece of myself I had always known was deeper than the thoughts, deeper than the continuously changing identities that masked that very piece.
What was this piece of myself? Or, was this piece not merely a piece at all but actually the whole, in which I could only see a piece of?
We must search inside for our answers. We must peel the layers — and when I say peel, we must dig deep, we must take our gaze inward and not only look at our darkness but relive our darkness. It is up to us to discover who we are and once we have made the decision to search inside instead of constantly searching without, the process of seeing truth has already begun.
You will see that the universe has been waiting for you — waiting for you to make the decision to begin the never ending pilgrimage to truth, to the very purpose of your life. Freedom exists in this pilgrimage and I wish all of you the courage to begin your search. I wish all of you the courage to reach your own freedom. I wish all of you the courage to reach your self.
A message…
In your moments of darkness, must you not be afraid. For it is in the midst of our darkness that we are able to discover the infinite possibilities of our light. Our vastness. Our treasures hidden deep within.
In your moments of darkness, may you find peace. May your find your individuality, your purpose. May you come to realize that once accepted, darkness has a certain beauty of it’s own… a great depth; a depth that carries your very roots of existence.
