developments

Some noteworthy things are taking shape in my life right now. They relate to the way I see the world, my world right now. I am very grateful for what is occuring. I would say that I am more mindfilled. I enjoy the conversations I have with myself more as I am now spotting and waiting out those moments when I want to be negative about my decisions or past. I remember years ago wondering when this moment would come. I read many, many books on this part of enlightenment and questioned whether it was possible for me. I was helped by a statement from someone spiritually wise who said that being enlightened does not mean suddenly living a perfect life. You will still have days where you feel dispondent or angry or whatever can pull you in a spiral. However, being enlightened means knowing that these things come and go....in the same way that joy and everything that feels good comes and goes as well. The point is to not hold on to it possessively, but to observe it all with gratitude.
