I wonder if we're all looking for opportunities to love ourselves more in contexts where we experienced a lack or a dearth. I recognize in myself an attraction to myself in my particular past, filling the holes that I perceived on my travel through abandonment to corruption and paving the ways that brought me out of it. Like a spider repairing her web, we go over the places with sags and tears to bolster and strengthen fibre by fibre, securing more attachments to the solid and mutable. The web isn't the spider or the fly and it is all part of the All That Is and can't be separated from he relationships that contain and contextualize it. Maybe I need to work my past line as I create my now space experience beyond that, like building a new web in a new location that reflects more accurately the experience I'm having now with more wholeness and neutrality that is anchored in the flow of chi as it relates to my centre and particularity instead of past experience. If dumbing things down for the masses is the way we are instructed then perhaps lighting people up with our brilliance is a more true calling than putting ourselves in boxes so we're more marketable, palatable and accessible is nonsense. Let's be brilliant together.
I think you are right, yes. We seek the flow of energy that nourishes us where nourishment had been missing. We are attracted to what heals us, even when we're not sure what that is yet or how to truly locate it.
Lighting people up with the brilliance that is inherently us, our true selves, is that activated life energy that mends all things, strengthens all beings. Such blessings.
Thank you for the beautiful poetry of your words here.
Thank you for your words, friend. My interactions with you and your writing have helped me a great deal with this! Finding first principles thinking in your Substack made me cheer.
