Some people call me Sage.
Some call me Thyme itself. Some call be Basil, Oregano, Coriander, Adobo, Garlic Salt, Ginger, and Black Pepper.
I love it when they call me Black Pepper. Feels strong. Powerful.
Just because you know it and believe it though, doesn’t mean you won’t continue a pattern. It helps to reframe this in a modern language. ‘Any bad shit that’s still happening means there’s still something in you that you’ve yet to resolve, heal, or let go. -note to self
Shaolin monks say “everything is your fault.” I believe in that philosophy. All things and negative experiences stem from our own choices. Even a choice years in the past, can be the fault, for an experience now. We simply forget. Other words, “All wounds are self-inflicted.”
@CotyMcDowell Better yet - don’t vote - just burn all candidates in a bonfire. It’s actually harmless, when the exteriors burn, what you’ll find is a simple steel frame remaining. Totally humane.
Least we forget, that failing to acquire this strength and break beyond that wall is perfectly acceptable, however, it is the choice to remain in Hell, which we are born into.
What comes after that, is an entirely new journey, much longer, where the details and understanding of compassion, love, understanding, humility, patience, acceptance, peace, discipline, suffering, relationships, money, health, God, law, time, all of it, are learned - only after.
