Motivating myself
No matter what

We all have fears
These fears are sending thoughts to us.
These thoughts are nothing but bad mirages.
These thoughts feel real but look around
Is any of it here now? No.
Most of the times,
These have started out of one reason
THE ILLUSION OF FEAR.
Fear has a core from which it sends all kinds of thoughts. Recognizing this may help to let go of the fear or at least to decrease its intensity.

In my life
Love comes in tides, it seems,
Hungry is my temperament.

Yep, I put a ribbon on everything,
Trying to be grateful.

But the light in this lighthouse
Is turning way too fast

Fear sits right beneath my chin
Breathing shallow

Endless desire to control
Intertwines body and soul

Though neither will surrender.

The conscious sea arrests hold of me,
Collective knowledge streams to my head,
With new eyes of three, I now can see,
I’m swimming in secrets of the dead.

A tideless sea, of consistency,
Not up nor down, behind or ahead,
All Life dissolved in pure unity,
All life woven from a single thread.

One drop is whole– The Entirety,
Reality fits on a pin’s head,
Uprooting all I thought there to be,
Replacing it with nothing instead.

Thoughts absent beyond duality,
And time crawls while elusive and sped,
All is formless unfettered and free,
And no words say what needs to be said.

Sliding of beads
So therapeutic
To see how this became that
What makes up the whole
                           Touch each fraction

No need for equation of form
To find value of one emotion
                               Against a known
Or
Tangents
Or
Ometries
When the only calculus of interest
                                    Is sum of self

Let's put that phone away and stretch our bodies.
If you're looking for tips how to limit your phone-time - here's an article I found useful myself:

Feathers fill an earthenware vase
                                         Tall quills  
Suiting ink wells
Scribing words beneath candle
Signing treaty’s  
                           Secured with wax
The Magna Carta
The Declaration of Independence
                         Momentous things

But these are simple feathers
Collected for aesthetics
For smudging
For connection
   For reasons other than to write

When we communicate and we don't feel seen - we may tend to intensify and overemphasize certain aspects. We identify stronger with them which makes them seem insurmountable and unchangeable. This is when we try to prove something.
Know who you are but don't fall into the trap of clinging onto a certain self-image. Let's keep an open mind. There is nothing to prove because truth cannot be changed. When there is nothing to defend, there is nothing to lose.
