Try not to bypass your own suffering. If you are sad, angry, lonely. Sit with it.
Dig a bit deeper. Go to talk therapy if needed, but try not to avoid the pain by medicating yourself or pretending all is well, when it's actually not.
It will pass…and interestingly, if you go deeper, you will find joy waiting for you.
I'm only speaking from personal experience, and I'm not a health professional.
But I can tell you through my deep suffering came joy.
Some people do not make it out the other side. If you are in a really bad place, and need to talk to someone, please call the Su***de Hotline. Just dial 988.
For me, about a decade ago, I was googling ways to kill myself. I was in a very dark place. Thankfully, I didn't do it. And then it hit me all at once, the profoundness of the present moment. This was my moment of enlightenment. My first major evolution of consciousness.
Joy is always there, it’s just covered up by the veil of illusion.
All the patterns, the stories that we make up.
It’s covering up what’s been there all along.
Your light. Sit with it. I promise promise promise it's there for you too. I know it.
There’s a crack, find it, you’ll find the light.
