So yeah,
It's not about the right thing.
It's not about avoiding the wrong thing.
It's about the honest thing.
The real thing.
I can see this obsession with a fear of getting it wrong,
Which in a way makes me anxious about doing the right thing.
And then as we explore the reality of it's about the honest thing,
You realize in your human journey,
You haven't had much time to get in touch with what the honest thing actually is.
And this is so obviously the stage where you really get to know yourself.
Because this has been the struggle for most human beings.
I don't even know myself,
Which is I don't even know what the most sincere thing is for me.
Because I've spent so much time being the person everyone else wants me to be.
And that's a very interesting place and it can also be a very scary place.
It's like stepping into a whole new world with lots of uncertainty because there appears to be a bit of certainty when you're being who other people want you to be.
Which is why it's more comfortable.
But then we have to deal with the consequence of not allowing our heart to breathe,
Which is more painful.
And that pain grows over time,
Which brings us to the place we're in now,
Which is deeply questioning what the hell's going on.
And we see,
Oh,
I don't know myself.
I guess it's time for that adventure.
Who am I really?
Why am I really here?
What is the honest thing?
And of course in that space,
The most honest thing is the realization that I don't know.
And that's a really good place to start.
Because we can stop pretending and become empty and ask for life to show us.
What am I really doing here?
The voice that speaks back is going to whisper.
And the voice that speaks is going to be so profoundly present.
And you have to meet that voice in presence.
Which also means you have to let go a lot of the bullshit in yesterday and tomorrow.
And you know it's going to speak in your own language.
But it's going to be some version of,
You're here to love.
And then we ask,
What does that even mean?
And then that's the fun part.
Because you get to craft that adventure.
What does it mean for you and your humanness to go love?
And maybe there's the exercise of imagining there's nothing to be afraid of.
What would you do?
How would you spend your time?
And I can promise you it's going to be some flavor of adding value to other people's lives.
Is this not the nature of love itself to be shared?
Is that not what keeps this earth spinning?
And to share love with the world could be sharing love with your neighbor.
Life cares not about the form that it takes.
It just asks that love flow.
And so it's not about what should it look like.
It's what does it want to look like?
What excites you?
What inspires you?
Do you notice that these are the things that are deeply honest?
What excites you?
What inspires you?
What's really there?
Not what should be there.
What's really there?
It's like asking the question,
What am I genuinely interested in?
Not what should I be interested in?
Not what do your parents think you should be interested in?
What are you genuinely interested in as a human being?
Because within your human is a genuine interest,
A genuine curiosity that is part of your DNA.
If you removed all of the restrictions on your imagination because some adult told you to grow up,
Just forget all of that and let your imagination play.
Where does it go?
If you released love,
Where does it flow?
Do you see the honesty becoming a little bit more clear?
It's pointing to what's natural.
And do you notice that your imagination,
Most notably it wants to play and it's way less concerned about the outcome?
Do you remember this as a child?
Your imagination running wild and free?
As you found yourself in this big miracle called life and you just wanted to go play and explore and learn?
Do you think that's not there anymore?
Or did you become convinced that you had to be a serious adult?
It wasn't allowed to play anymore.
You're still living in the same miracle.
We just took on an enormous burden,
Which was really just a projection of fear from the world.
From a world that doesn't see the miracle.
Which is kind of funny because it shows you some flavor of our purpose to remind the world.
And yeah,
You will surely find lots of people who don't want to be reminded.
But you will stumble upon those who want to.
So yeah,
It's not about the right thing.
It's not about avoiding the wrong thing.
It's about the honest thing.
The real thing.
