Being Who We Are
| Time and again we identify ourselves in terms of the roles we adopt on the stage of life; the choices we make in this life and what we perceive as the triumphs and falls we experience as a result. Too often we identify with our choices and at times fill our minds with the disappointment of what we see as failure until it becomes an imperious part of our identities. But our self cannot be defined by our choices, as the very core of our being always remains impartial. Simply, there exists no right or wrong choices. What we choose ultimately contributes to our growth as human beings and are an essential part of the process of evolving. Rather than living in a world of duality in right or wrong, we can adopt to experience the experience without the label. And we can choose to decide differently the next time. We can become more mindful in the choices we make in each and every moment. We can choose a new response. A perceived error then develops into an offering of opportunity to learn and grow. |

This is true only when you don't make any choice or choices. Just an idea.
to "decide differently next time", would that not entail living or acting from memory causing one to miss the truth?
taken further, we could site the wars between individuals on religious or any other 'grounds' as a
product of their unwillingness to simply be with another and experience 'that'...
possibly it is the mind itself that is the root of all conflict, both within and without...is it possible to
be that available, that open and unafraid?
thanks...again :)
Anne, you said: taken further, we could site the wars between individuals on religious or any other 'grounds' as a

Just Being. No Doing. Beautiful. In that moment of conflict, making a choice not to react, but to just Be.
Thanks :)
