We consume this and that
To prevent us from feeling
The emotions that often leave us reeling
But what’s really happening
Is the mind-body is asking us for healing
It’s too hard to be seen
Or so it seems
The layers deep and complex
With no known index
We turn to reading, eating, or watching a screen
Rather than listening, breathing, and simply Being
But there’s nothing simple about Being
At least at first
The things we have ignored
Are knocking at our door
Our shadow work is saying, “hello”
And we are responding with, “oh hell no”
But what if “hello” was a friendly request
An offer for us to become more curious
If we choose this perspective
Absolutely anything can happen next
Otherwise, we already know what to expect
Old patterns seem easy and feel comfortable too
They give us a feeling like we already know what to do
But that false sense of security
Denies our inner truth
If our experience is determined
By what we choose to do
Are you choosing your experience
Or is it choosing you?
