The truth is that you do not have to be anything other than what you are.
Is it not so exhausting resisting things?
Is it not so exhausting trying to ensure that everything is agreeable to this small self?
There is another way to be free of fear,
Of bother,
Of pain and it doesn't involve trying to manipulate the things in our environment.
What it does involve is a conscious choice to release effort,
To let life itself be effortless,
To meet the moment just as it is.
Because the truth is that you do not have to be anything other than what you are.
It's all laid out,
Just show up and bring your best you.
And that isn't some superhero,
It's just you as you are naturally in this moment,
When you are fully in this moment,
Not resisting this moment.
And how do we allow ourselves to be in this moment?
To be just natural,
To just be here,
With,
By remembering that none of the stuff around us is actually solid,
That none of it is permanent,
That none of it is actually real.
It's all some form of projection,
It's all some interpretation.
And if we can just let it be and therefore let ourselves be,
Then we can let things flow,
We can move through life with greater ease.
Our job is to maintain alignment,
Inner alignment,
And the outer stuff,
We are just asked to meet it willingly,
Directly.
And when I say directly,
It means without the ideas around what this means to the small self.
How does this affect me?
What do I have to do here?
How do I have to protect myself against this thing?
Or how can I get this thing that I want?
So just meeting the stuff,
The things,
The people,
The interactions,
The situations directly,
Just being,
Without clinging,
Without resisting,
Without efforting.
It's so exhausting resisting things.
And on the contrary,
We can just show up from moment to moment to moment to moment,
We have an infinite amount of energy,
An infinite capacity.
And we're going to be available to learn things and feel things that add to that energy.
There is another way to be free of fear,
And bother and pain,
And that is to release effort.
Let life be effortless.
Meet the moment just as it is.
Knowing that you do not have to be anything other than the moment.
Be you as you are naturally.
There's nothing else required.
Nothing.
Just be you as you are in this moment.
Be present.
Be here.
Be with your experience directly.
Life wants to be lived effortlessly.
