What I learnt today
There are no
limits in life
We can only
limit ourselves
Through our
mental construction
We have
built a litany of barriers and obstacles
We have
buried ourselves in uncertainty, fear and hopelessness
We have
barricaded ourselves in the realm of logic
Unwilling to
let go of the equations of life
We have
entangled ourselves with desires, needs and expectations
We don't
know our true selves anymore
We are
walking textbooks, syllabuses or curriculums
We are
forever looking at the constructed billboard of success
We are
suffocated by our own mental framework
Today, I
learnt to unlearn stuff
I learnt to
un-understand my life circumstances
And be
willing to delve into the realm of consciousness
Today, I
learnt the lesson of existence
It is not
the brain matter that makes life pleasant or painful
It is the
substance of being that makes life a beautiful place
Unless, we
understand our true selves
We will
forever carry the burdens of life
And miss out
on the opportunity to be with God
Today, I
leant to be with God
To let go of
my needs, desires and wants
And just be
still
