Layers

I am embracing everything that life is giving to me. As the days trickle by, we often lose track of who we are and how far we have come to get to where we are.

This journey has been eye-opening, mind-blowing and heart-wrenching. I also know that I am where I need to be.

As these parts of me and my past keep shedding, I know that it’s all about learning, growth and rebirth. I have no expectations of others to understand, I just don’t want or need them to get in my way.

We are all in search of our own happiness and truth. A wise person once said, “What’s important to you, isn’t necessarily what’s important to me.” Just don’t impose it on me.

With every meditation, I am more in touch with who I am and where I am going to, these vibrations in my mind, my soul and the peace that I get afterwards is inexplicable and comforting. I know deep down that it’s the right path.

With every encounter I have with people, it seems that people like to tell me their stories, their pain and their struggles. I don’t ask, I don’t question, I don’t judge, the words just spill out as if they needed someone to just listen. So that’s what I do, I listen, let the words and tears waterfall out of them. Until it stops. It’s therapeutic for them. They feel much better. As for me, I have some bizarre shield that protects me, it rolls off of me, I don’t feel their pain, I don’t want pretend to understand, I can logically process it and what my natural reaction is supposed to be. When they’re done, whatever moments we shared, dissipates. Like an outer layer, it’s just falls off and I start with the next person, all new again.
