The worst fear of the ego is when
you learn how to inhabit your body & remain
there. This is the worst nightmare for the ego. To lose
control over the body. The ego may do everything in his
power to regain strength again. The ego is greedy & punishes
you for thinking about leaving whereas the body thrives in
contentment and immediately rewards you for the tiniest *
* presence of your body, soul and heart. The ego demands *
results, fast, more duties taken upon, less rest to recuperate,
* less time to indulge, less self-care, preferably no self-care *
rituals whatsoever. Not to give the thinking mind the chance
to exit the ego’s firm grip. Your body urges you to slow down,
to lie down for a while, to rest, to pace down, to catch up.
To be present with all your senses. To be still. Stillness.
* * To chill. Chillness. To reflect. Reflectness. To * *
* *contemplate. Contemplatness. To wonder. * *
* * Wonderness. To wander. Wandernress. * *
* * To feel. Feelness. To heal. Healness. * *
* * To deal with emotions. * *
*
*
*
* To embrace them in order *
* for you to let them go. Some never enter *
* the body, spending a whole lifetime behind bars *
of the ego. They inherit the art of being present in their
body and they are the rare cases that manages to do what
some cannot do though generations. And you immediately *
know who they are when running into them. They are at tune
* and very much in alignment with their body, soul, heart and
mind. The mind is not captivated by the ego but rather wonders
for the world’s magic wonders. They are in such harmony energy–
wise and with themselves & you immediately know that they
inhabit something you don’t. And you instantly feel a desire
to embrace whatever it is or was that they embraced. You
just instantly know that they have something that
you don’t and you want it.

*
But the question you should
* ask yourself is if you are willing to do *
* what they had to do to get to the stage in life *
where they . Some of them lost everything they had.
Are you willing to do what they had to do? To give every-
thing up. Everything they ever possessed. Everything they
thought they were, out of the window. Everything they told
themselves to be true. To give up everything they dreamed of in
their entire lives. To surrender to what wasn’t meant to be, what
* wasn’t meant to happen to what you thought never would *
happen, not to you, at least and end up in places beyond
your imagination, to enter places, worlds, packs,
folks, tribes, communities you never knew
existed in real life.
*
*
*
Worlds you only heard of in the fairy tales.
*
*
*
The one where the princess gets the prince in
the end and where they lived happily ever after.
*
*
*
Those kinds of stories. You know.
*
*
*
So, I ask you one more time, are you willing to let all that go?
*
*
*
To put your trust into the universe,
* to find hidden treasures the most *
ordinary and mundane everyday life.
