Taking another perspective on depression,
Could it be a state of mind?
A different take on the meaning of depression as entropy?
Did you know the word entropy is Greek for within change?
Could we look at it as something different?
Could we begin?
Could we see the turn of events into the change within,
Rather than leaving it behind and calling it helpless?
Because we can't see the unknown,
We feel helpless,
And we feel we probably won't get out of it,
There isn't a point,
I'm already in too deep.
But what if this feeling of depression asks us to look deeper into our consciousness?
As it is now ready to leap with us,
It is preparing us for the greater,
A shift inside waiting to be liberated.
As the world around us is so vast,
So wide,
So massive,
The universe inside seems closed in and small.
We feel as though we see not of its beauty,
But its loss and dark palace of nothingness and emptiness.
It's unfortunate we think this,
Doubt of self,
Of many things we have given in.
I wish to take you into a whole new perspective in your contemplations of this new meaning and new frequency of these dynamic thought forms.
There is some form of optimism here.
We could acknowledge life with courage and strength,
To merge its essence into something fresh,
Something that seems different but not so foreign.
Remember,
The stamina of change within could offer you something new,
Something you knew,
And something you longed for.
Could we not fight it as it could turn the other way and lead us deeper into a hole we wish to not be in?
When you feel the overwhelming feeling,
Know that the ability to rise within is available to you at all times.
It is.
It would help to embrace time alone and where we are in this transition,
With courage and strength.
We carry the ability to harness these powers within.
Trust in the process that it awakens.
And when it does,
Trust yourself to do so with courage and strength.
When revived,
It is fued with renewed passion.
Trust that when you wake up,
The sun rises too.
Dance with the energies of the unity of day and night.
I rise with the sun to see its light and to honor my inner flame that is still burning within.
As it flickers,
I hold it close.
As the sun has come and time to set at night,
I can rest between worlds and space and time and then wake up once again with the sun.
Remember,
We begin to seed creation into something new and different in the state of entropy.
We may not see it yet,
As it seems gloom.
The preparation is taking place.
Here lies between its real and surreal information.
The choice alone is in your hands.
During my contemplations of becoming overwhelmed by depressed feelings,
I would act upon it to honor its depth.
However,
Before this,
I would try to predict it,
Control it,
And let it run me down and drain me.
That was not honoring.
I noticed during the times I feel this way,
I would sit with it,
Catalyzing the energy of emotions into alchemy with a good look of courage,
Strength,
And gratitude to cultivate its power,
Working through and yield to its unlocking down to the roots that held up the foundations I once knew.
What could this teach me about myself?
It teaches about willpower and the self-empowerment,
A discipline to unite.
Years of contemplation,
I recognized the gifts it showed me about myself that was kept hidden.
Transcend my state into the more significant change within,
Something inside asks for change,
And a new creation could then begin.
But how ready was I to accept?
It all depended on what I was prepared for.
What could we do to embrace its presence?
An invitation to practice.
Ask yourself,
Am I ready?
If not,
Why?
If I am,
Then accept its grace to support and honor the feelings that show up.
It asks for support and comfort to nourish the emotions in this state of mind into healing and alchemy.
You can transcend transmuted into great inspiration,
And begin to understand that something is liberating from all of this.
