Just Feel

Most are trapped in an endless cycle of self-analysis. The mind runs wild filling up with so much anxiety and fear that the body becomes frozen in turn.

I am not offering a solution to any problem, simply a perspective

You are trapped, trapped on this planet, inside of your house, inside of your own head. It does not have to be this way. You still have the most powerful thing in the universe, life.

You have the ability to feel, the ability to laugh and love and learn. The ability to think, one tiny spec of dust in an ocean of cosmos. This short precious time which you have been given seems impossible. There have been perfect times and there will still yet be bad times. It is the way of life. It simply does not matter what you do the world will turn on.

You have been granted this moment. take it as a curse or a gift, regardless it is yours to have. All the times that you have left behind and everything that lays ahead is all just for you. There are no expectations there is no right or wrong way. there is nothing except here and now. That tiny sliver of now is the only thing we can hold onto in this world. What would you do with it?

The warmth of the sun on your skin, the frosty bite of snow on your face, that precious moment of loving someone, that dark cold feeling of alone, the grand uplifting feeling of accomplishment, the crushing blow of failure, The first cry of your newborn, that last breath of your grandparents.

The smell of freshly bloomed flowers, the chilling kiss of water as you dip your feet, the symphony of morning birds, the crunch of leaves underfoot, the last conversation with your mother. The joy of the woman you love and the children you share.

Life is an intertwining of highs and lows. One moment on top of the world, the next swiped off your feet broken and battered with no hope. Yet somewhere in the darkness, there is always light, there is always life.

Take your life for all that it is. Experience all that you can. Feel everything. Have no fear or shame of your emotions, accept them as they come and feel them as they are.

No matter how low you go you never lose yourself. You just feel. Take life as it is and let your thoughts be quieted, let your emotions flow and experience what gifts you have been bestowed. This life is not a journey or a ride, this life is all that you have. Enjoy it and experience every moment without waste and without regret. it feels wonderful to be alive.

you are free, just feel.
