#self judgment

Against Oblivion

Indignation overload— it’s brazenly obscene. I’ve condemned myself to a black hole where only the abominable make their beds. All because I distorted authenticity. I made it look like I was legitimate, but I was the wolf in sheep’s clothing, the thief in the night, the mother of lies. How, then, do I come back from this? What penance do I need to make? Is there such atonement? Can I make this dissolve into oblivion? Maybe there’s a way out without reparation. Perhaps I can pull the curtains over his eyes once more. No. That’s how I got into this abhorrent calamity. Candor, integrity. That’s how I claim reformation. I must reconstruct the collapse. I must live with indemnification.

The most magical healing elixir I found is curing self judgment. Then you don’t have a weapon within yourself that someone else’s judgment can ignite.

If we closely examine our "personal" failings, it soon becomes clear that they are not there by choice. Typically, outside circumstances conspired to form our particular patterns without our input. If you had control over your maladaptive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, you wouldn't still have them. You would have already jettisoned your dark, anxious, neurotic persona and become a calm, confident ray of sunshine. Clearly you don't have complete control over your actions, or else you'd only act in ways that you approved of. So why are you judging yourself so harshly for the way you are?

~We are all fucked up on some level, We all come in with our baggage to work with and on. No human being escapes this unless they are an avatar with a different purpose. So the biggest illusion in my eyes is that we need to be perfect and if we are not then we need to forgive ourselves. 

Our fuck up ness is always going to surface, the difference between a spiritual warrior and one caught up in the herd illusion is self acceptance followed by conscious self observation without judgment. Without this there will always be a split between who we think we should be and who we are, we will judge others as harshly as we judge ourselves. 

When we simply witness we have already won because the witness is the higher self and there will be response coming from awareness instead of reaction coming from habitual programs and self rejection.~

I'm laying in bed, watching Criminal Minds on Netflix, and eating chocolate cake at 12:30 in the morning. I don't even like cake and I'm not a huge fan of chocolate. I also skipped going to the gym the last two days. There are no words for how hard I'm judging myself right now.
