SLAYING THE DRAGON

KNOWING YOU HAVE A CHOICE AND EXERCISING IT IS THE MOST POWERFUL FREEDOM YOU WILL EVER HAVE AND NO ONE MAY TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU BECAUSE IT RESIDES WITHIN YOU. CHOICE HAS THE POWER TO TRANSFORM ONES LIFE AND EACH ONE OF US MUST CHOOSE THE PATH WE CARVE FOR OUR OWN LIVES AS NO ONE ELSE CAN DO IT FOR US. ADDICTIONS CAN COME IN MANY FORMS FROM HEROIN AND ALCOHOL ADDICTION TO BEING ADDICTED TO SEX AND ENDLESS ALTERED REALITIES LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA AND OTHER MENTAL FANTASIES OR BELIEF SYSTEMS. KNOWING HOW TO LIVE IN REALITY “ON POINT” WITHIN YOURSELF IS THE GREATEST GIFT BECAUSE TRULY KNOWING ONESELF OPENS THE DOOR TO LIVING IN ONES TRUE POTENTIAL AS A CONSCIOUS HUMAN BEING. SELF KNOWLEDGE IS THE TREASURE CHEST OF REALIZING ONES TRUE POTENTIAL IN LIFE WHICH RESIDES WITHIN EACH PERSON WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED.

WHEN WE ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE TRUTH OF WHO WE ARE WITHIN OURSELVES THEN WE FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE AND DISTURBED AND NATURALLY SEEK AN ESCAPE FROM THE DISCOMFORT WE FEEL IN US. ESCAPE COMES IN VARIOUS FORMS FROM DRUGS TO SEX TO WORK, MONEY, SHOPPING AND MANY OTHER SOURCES WHICH PEOPLE FIND TO ESCAPE REALITY AND THESE HABITS CAN BECOME ADDICTIONS. ADAPTING TO CERTAIN BELIEF SYSTEMS OR RELIGIOUS IDEOLOGIES CAN BE A COMMON WAY OF COPING WITH A WORLD WHICH DOES NOT FEEL CORRECT. UNTIL WE FIND COMFORT WITH WHO WE ARE AS HUMAN BEINGS WITHIN OURSELVES IN THIS WORLD WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FEEL PEACE. MANY SEEK VICES WHICH CAN BE VERY DAMAGING AND LIFE THREATENING IN ORDER TO COPE WITH THEIR LIVES. OVERCOMING THESE VICES CAN BE REFERRED TO AS “SLAYING DRAGON” THAT HAS TAKEN CONTROL OF OUR LIVES AND HIDDEN OUR POWER OF CHOICE IN THE ILLUSION THESE VICES CREATE. IT IS POSSIBLE TO OVERCOME VICES ONCE WE HAVE CONNECTED TO THE POWER OF KNOWING OUR TRUE SELVES FROM WITHIN.

SOMETIMES OUR PARENTS AND
THE WORLD TELL US WHO WE SHOULD BE INSTEAD OF TEACHING US HOW TO KNOW OUR TRUE SELVES FROM WITHIN. TRYING TO BE WHAT OTHERS TELL US TO BE IS LIKE BEING A PIECE IN A PUZZLE AMONGST ENDLESS OTHER PIECES WHICH CANNOT FIND THE SLOT THAT FITS NATURALLY TOGETHER IN ORDER TO CREATE A COMPLETE PICTURE. LIVING UP TO OTHERS EXPECTATIONS OF US IS NOT NATURAL NOR FULFILLING AND CAN LEAVE US FEELING INCOMPLETE LIKE SOMETHING IS MISSING.. HENCE WE SEEK ESCAPE THROUGH DISTRACTIONS OR ADDICTIONS IN ORDER TO NOT FEEL RATHER THAN FINDING AND CHOOSING WHAT FEELS RIGHT FOR US. WHEN WE ARE TRUE TO OURSELVES FROM THE PLACE OF KNOWING WHO ARE FROM WITHIN THEN WE ARE COMING FROM OUR MOST NATURAL EXISTENCE AND IT FEELS RIGHT.
