Today I'd like to contemplate a bit on what if everything happened exactly the way it should?

And that already triggers many things.

For example,

Who says it should?

Do you need to know why?

Do you need to understand?

Maybe there are a lot of things triggered now also in my system.

I notice when I start talking about this,

It is what I truly feel.

Which I didn't in the past,

Obviously I would say.

But if everything happens exactly as it should be,

It is our own mind that wants to know why,

That wants to understand,

That wants to have control and is therefore resisting what is happening,

Is therefore making a story out of the things that happen.

I realize this is a lot to contemplate on and it has many different elements and I'm just feeling now in which direction I would like to take this.

Let's just go with an example,

Maybe that makes it more tangible for you.

I woke up this morning with let's say an annoyed feeling.

It had something to do about not moving forward,

Things that I thought I was past,

Suddenly start to come back in my system.

It had to do with relationships.

My last long-term relationship was five years ago,

Ended five years ago and at some point elements of that relationship still pop up and there's no let's say connection in any sense in my mind with that person anymore.

But still but still elements of that relationship show up.

I can make a huge story out of it,

Why that is happening,

I can try to understand it,

I can be frustrated.

There's many things to respond,

Many ways to respond to things that come up.

Whether it's as a thought,

Whether it is as a feeling,

Whether it is another person resembling certain behavior,

Whatever it is,

It is triggering me in a way that I have a response.

Whether this response is physical,

Emotional,

Whether it's thoughts,

That doesn't really matter.

For me the invitation is when I have these responses to zoom out.

You can either go in a story or in searching for reasons,

Meaning,

Or you can zoom out and see what is happening.

You can observe that this happens for a reason without knowing the reason.

Feeling that it's just coming up because it wants to be purified,

Purified.

Because in the energy it wants to be transmuted,

It doesn't want to be holding you back,

As in it was something external.

But I truly believe that everything outside of you is inside of you.

So there's,

Like I said,

So many elements to this,

And if you follow me for a bit longer you might already have more idea of my vision of how life works basically.

And if not,

And this is maybe too much,

I don't know,

You will hear in the next couple of audios also some elements related to this.

But the bottom line is,

It comes up in my vision for a reason,

Things happen for a reason,

But it is the story you attach to it,

Whether,

Yeah,

It stays there or not.

And I honestly also believe that we don't have to search for reasons.

If we can just stay present with whatever happens,

Without attachment,

Without rejecting that it should not be there,

It should not be happening,

Just be present,

That is,

Then the energy is just pure,

It's purely energy.

But this requires quite a perspective where you zoom out a lot and just see what is there.

So I'm very curious whether you ever have considered this,

That things only show up to be cleared so that you can move on,

So that we can move on,

So that the world moves on,

So that we bring,

Let's say,

Timelines together from where we are now to this future version of where we want to be.

So give it a thought.

Do you feel that everything happens for a reason,

But also that searching for the reason is not always helpful?
