Where are you right now? Your Self will meet your self there.
So much that surrounds you leads you to believe you are not enough. Your career, your health, your relationships, your financial situation, your knowledge. None of that is true, of course. You are one with the Source, by definition you are all and that never changes.
“I am ashamed of who I am.”
“I should be farther along than I am.”
“I am a bad spouse/parent/child/employee.”
“I have wasted my life.”
All forms of: the person I am is bad, I need to marginalize and eliminate them in order to move forward.
You do not need to burn yourself down and trample on the ashes to find your Self. Quite the opposite.
Where are you right now? Your Self with meet your self there. Your ego will meet you there too.
Two directions, which will you choose? One will be fraught with fear, anxiety, unhappiness and the exact perpetual state of striving you currently live in. You may even experience better moments. It will “feel” better. That is the illusion.
There will always be the next thing to “make you happier” just within your grasp and others outside of it. Maybe you reach it, maybe you don’t. If you do, there will be another. If you don’t you will be unhappy. It is a like ladder that with each rung you believe is causing you to ascend, but instead is leading you nowhere.
The other direction is peace and love, with a recognition all that needs to be provided, has been provided. The “striving” ends because there is nothing else. No matter what has been done, your Self always extends their hand and meets you exactly where you are. The Light has never gone out.
You are free to simply “be” in a state of calm and let Life take its course.
Where are you right now? Your Self will meet your self there. Your ego is lost, never to be found again.
Peace and Love.
