Mindfulness is bloody hard
This is one of the most difficult concepts for me to not argue against. What do meeeeaaaannnn I’m not my thoughts and feelings?!? Of course I am! Oh wait, thank gods I’m not.
With a brain that runs a hundred directions at once, really, thank gods I am not. My essence, my love that is life force, the whatsit in us that drives and powers all that is, I know are not my thoughts and feelings. It is so much more and so much less than the story in my head. In those sparse and sometimes rare moments that I remember this, I find peace within.
