I Wonder

How easily the fruits and veggies get cut! They don't resist, they don't oppose. Coz that's how they are made, soft, cutable, eatable.. Sounds a bit absurd lol, but while slicing them I was wondering..
How often do we resist things and situations and people and opinions! How often do we oppose.. How often sometimes instead of allowing life to show us a way, we stay stubborn thinking our path is right or good or the only way.. Doesn't that make us cold-hearted? What if we didn't resist life, allowing it to happen and stayed open to situations and things and people and opinions! We don't need to stay cold or bitter towards life even if we've experienced it the other way round. What if we stayed even a little bit open?
Sometimes, flowers grow even on the barest and hardest of walls through the tiniest of cracks..

I am hungry now... One Mix vegetable with Rotis please.. uske baad Daal khichadi.. :D

The thought should take care of the thought not thinker..the thinker is past,memory,partial and conditioned.. Till the time Thinker is taking charge rather than being observant, thinker wishes to materialize or put thought into something pursuable, sensable to get the feeling of achievement or it's happening kind feeling.. This is the trouble.. If we don't do this we go into rendomness or void feeling.. It's scary initially :o ..the ME is retaliating..

Is it so? It's like one being centre of attraction...so the circle revolves, endlessly.. what if you are not the centre but the part..then the circle ends.. circle cannot survive without centre.. this is continuous thinking or procrastination.. tiring ,takes toll on you..
Nature has course of action, thinker is part of it not the incharge.. we need high observation and sensitivity to let it happen.. in a world which is telling us to take control of life or achieve every second...

I find that I'm guilty of this. So much energy has been put into not being hurt again that maybe I hurt. I find I usually think people have it in for me.

This is, of course, not healthy and while it's not an every day occurrence it's something about myself that needs changing.

I don't want to be soft, but I do want to be more pliable. Meanwhile still maintaining my sense of self while allowing experiences to shape my decision making, not necessarily just lock things out.

Yes we all need grace.

Thank you for your kind words. As much as I want to give up on it sometimes that's just not in my dna lol.

Sorry to interrupt the conversation here. If at this stage you ask me if trusting is ok, is say no. I think the mechanism is wired inside us... To trust our not to. Sometimes, i think it's pretty ok to just not trust others. You'll save yourself a lot of unnecessary hurt.

I agree with you, i usually go with my intuition whether the other person is trustworthy or not and most of the times, i meet people who are.

Examples are tricky..they may sway us away from what is ... :o
Mind is romantic and tricky, it can conform and take up anything to explain itself, however nicely explained, it may not give the realization or perception.. isn't it? No example is complete..
