Understanding is rewarded with honesty not obedience.
The more understanding you are, the more hard truths you will hear.
These hard truths are the doorway to growth and connection if you can face them with compassion and empathy.
Why does my partner/child/friend/etc. not listen to me?
There’s two big reasons why.
1. You have a false notion of what “listening” is.
There’s an important distinction between “listening” and “obeying”.
Listening is not obeying.
Listening is giving attention to and…
True love is not...
TRANSACTIONAL.
You give me what I want and I'll give you what you want is trade, not love.
OBSESSIVE.
All-consuming thoughts about another is a sign that you lack in yourself that which you want out of them.
POSESSIVE.
Wanting someone all to yourself is…
You don’t identify with the shit that comes out of your ass, yet you identify with this shit that comes out of your head.
No wonder why your life stinks.
when you become addicted to the pleasure of being with someone, you become afraid of the pain of not having them.
when you think they’re yours to have, you become possessive and lose sight of who they are.
you may even lose sight of who you are in an attempt to hold on to them.…
I’m torn.
I thought I knew love and relationships. I thought I knew how things would go, more or less.
But then she came into my life.
Our lives.
You didn’t ask for it.
You didn’t want it.
Then again, maybe everything that happens is what we want, deep down.
Who knew…
If life feels like you’re free falling and there’s nothing to grasp on to, there isn’t anything wrong with you.
This is the nature of reality.
Impermanence.
Clinging will only cause suffering.
Learn to “be” with this or else your “doing” will be compulsive and destructive.
Shoutout to a couple of my biggest influences @SadhguruJV and @naval coming together and playing their part in making a more conscious world. My goal is the same.

If you can’t name what you’re living for, is it any surprise your life feels empty and you spend all your time trying to fill it with pleasure and distractions?
