Treatment Tuesday

Experience, usually leads to a form of wisdom l, if by no other means the sheer trial and errors we have attempted and survived. Enlightment is a more nuanced gift I beleive.

The more we learn the less we know, is very much a difficult concept to grasp and understand. Even in writing " and understand' I am full of sarcastic self talk, asking, " how could you ever comprehend the vast expanse of stuff you don't know?

So for me, Einstein' s words about EGO resonate very loudly, the concept of Ego = arrogance and not necessarily Freuds thoughts on Ego, super Ego and the Id.

I remember in my youth, being labeled " Mr. KNOW-IT-ALL" for my belligerence and mouth. A plight or passage for most teens moving psychologically and intellectually into a more adult space. It is demonstrated by the number of " I knows" stacked in a conversation. The good news is, most will grow up and out of that garden, once "real life" shares the the limits of their understanding and knowledge, compared to what the world has to teach them.

Like all statistical data, there must be the ' lips" of the Bell Curve, showing some will never experience this Ego, and some will never outgrow it or mature beyond.

It may not take the frustrations away completely, but knowing that the blowhard infront of you is the tail end of a lip, brings a deeper smile internally.

Which brings me to the concepts of "Love & Allow" love yourself enough to Allow others their journey.

Be well

Thursday Thoughts

How many trips, stumbles, wrong answers, failed attempts and rejections does it take to abdicate the goal? I find it interesting, in comparison, how selective we can be, in choosing what is worth the time and commitment and what is not worthy to follow.

We are all intelligent beings, able to figure out what is a lost cause right? The fact that we had a dream, and idea or goal that inspired us is not sufficient cause to after it as best we can and discover where it takes us, what we learn along the way and how to adjust and amend the next efforts right?

Just think about walking, speaking, reading, writing, driving and a shit ton of other achievements you learned through trial and error. Each and every one filled with failures and disappointments, but we persevered through them all.

We are aware of the selective hearing that we refer to, people will hear what they want to hear, see what the choose to see in order to feel the way they decide to feel, which provides a Eureka moments, when you realize that "if it was meant to be, it is always up to me".

You are so worth the effort, and commitment, don't be the first one to write you off, or eliminate the value of your wants, goals and dreams.

Yes, help and outside input is valuable, but moreover your determination is indispensable.

Be well
