The Truth of Being or Who am I Really?

We can look at this two ways. One, we are (insert negativity here). I invite you to hang with that thought for a moment….. How does it make you feel? I’m betting not too good. Now, (insert positivity here). I am, We are…. If it’s difficult, think of your oneness with that which is grounded. What makes you feel bigger than your current strife? Think of it as an unused muscle. It will loosen and strengthen in time if we use it. Lately, it’s easy to fall into the negativity because it seems to be all around us. People are dying, angry, blaming, and we are wallowing in thoughts and emotions that are counter to our nature. If we stay too long in these we will never find our way out. The thing about negativity is that although we can feel it, it doesn’t help us. We can experience it because we need to identify it. We need to say, this is bad, but not who I am/We are. The interesting thing about negativity, though, is the longer we wade in the muck, the muckier our lives become. Pretty soon, that’s all we see and we are miserable. On the other hand, if we remember that we don’t grow well in the muck, we can step out of it. By remembering that we are not the muck, that we are alive, joy, and individually responsible for our own wellbeing, brings us to a place of power. This is how I know that the positive is the truth of our being. If we believe we are the muck and that it surrounds us, then we will forever stay in the muck. If we believe we are vibrant, loving beings, we can step out of the muck because we believe there is something better than the muck. Humanity is as great as we allow ourselves to be, one person at a time. You are amazing. The sooner you accept it, the sooner you can begin changing how you feel and the world.
