“I cannot suffer from anything other than believed-in ‘thoughts’ that are strongly held in my mind. I cannot experience sadness without first adding a ‘sad story’ about myself.
I never suffer from what happens to me, only from my negative misperceptions (misaligned beliefs) of my experience. The moment I shift my internal state, my perception of reality begins to change. It is our interpretations of life’s events that dictates how we feel. An unhappy narrative plus the feelings that flow from it, equals personal suffering.”
-Anon I mus (Spiritually Anonymous)
Observe your mental commentary and recognize that your moods/emotions are based solely on whatever thoughts you choose to believe is real. The situation or circumstances that you experience are neutral and contain no inherent emotional charge. Negative and positive are simply subjective values that you assign to neutral events based on your perception of them. Your thoughts about the what you experience creates the negative energy generated through emotional resistance.
You suffer more from your imagination than the actual circumstances. Always be aware of the mind-generated stories that you are consistently telling yourself (that you have identified with or attached to) in each moment. Be present (without judgement) with your life challenges and create space between the event and your reaction. In that space is where freedom lives. Your not obligated to believe in every judgemental thought that appears; fuelling them with your belief is always ‘optional’.
