What does it look like?
How does it make you feel?
Does it remind you of something you’ve seen before?
Does it remind you of her?
Does it remind you of that time?
You know it’s been 2 years ago now
That’s a long time
That’s a long time for me
That’s a long ways away
But it’s still close in your heart
It’s still something you struggle with
I worry I won’t be able to make it up
Up to the top of my career
Up in the morning out of bed
I’m worried I won’t be able to make it anywhere
Maybe you think too much
Maybe all your friends and family love you
Maybe you’re all doing great
Maybe your view of the universe and this hard time is good for you
You’ve been thinking a lot lately
Not working a lot lately
Running out of money
Running out of time
But somehow staying afloat
I worry about you
But I know you know
I know you know what you’re doing and where you’re going
I know you’re figuring it out
I miss you
I know you miss her
Maybe I do too
You’re doing things now I don’t know were possible before
I’m proud of you
Are you proud of you?
Do you feel the change you’re going through in any positive light?
You see the dark and feel it
But do you see any light?
Maybe the change you’re making isn’t for light
Maybe the darkness is what contrasts the light
A dark background to light a bright silhouette
The dreams you’ve been having lately are strange
The dreams that don’t stop when you wake up
Likes blur week over week
Day over day
You miss things
Things miss you
Puff misses you
You’re in another foreign place
This time is hard and people told you it would be
But it feels like the hardest thing you’ve ever been through
I don’t know if I can say there’s a good feeling on the other side
But I know you’re putting in a lot of work to find peace
And I think you’ll be able to find that
Keep being enough
Because you are enough
Your efforts are enough
It feels like you’re never enough
But I promise you, when you look back you do see the sense of enough
And you can bring that feeling to the present moment
You can be present more of the time
What you have and what you do and what you are is all enough
It feels good to feel like you’re not enough
It feels like that gives you room to grow
Room to become better and greater and faster and stronger
If you are enough you’ll still have that room to grow
You’ll still have that room to do more if that’s what you’re called to do
Tapping into your calling by coming to a sense of peace doesn’t have to mean you don’t have an interesting story
That you don’t say interesting things
Or do interesting things
From that perspective you’re not limited or liberated
But you are you completely
You are the universe completely
You understand that air on earth applies nearly 15 pounds per square inch
That holds you together from the outside from exploding
You can become your environment
You can rest as your environment needs to rest
It needs you to rest
You have the opportunity to give up your human figure
And give something to the world not being obsessed with controlling your image any longer
Your image to your girlfriend
Your image to you work colleagues and clients
Your image to your friends and parents
They might have their own images but you can give yours back to the universe and stop worrying about it so much
That opens up the opportunity to have more fun
Sleep more deeply
And wake with a feeling of wanting to leave the bed and experience the world the way you did as a child
To go play in it
To play with it
You do complicated things
Coding things and working with databases
Working towards an abstract and concrete understanding of silicone and programming at the same time
And the universe and who you are in it at the same time
A lot’s going on in your head
A lot will always be going on
That’s your situation
That’s your environment
And you’re a part of that
Giving up your suffering doesn’t give up your beauty
Or your story
It brings it to life
And gives it a new life it didn’t have when you were locked in the perspective of viewing it from trauma and nostalgia
Telling your story
Over and over again opens the opportunity for you to be freed from all the suffering
It opens the door to live and love for what is now
Not what has been and what might be
I hope you’ll find this presence
I hope that brings you peace
I hope understanding the universe from a perspective of universal language and geometry brings value and light to you and others
I think it will
I think it’ll help you a lot
I think it will help you get out of bed a lot
Get
