Beloved One

Beloved One
How are you faring? Please do not be harsh with yourself. “Spiritual” people are often hard on themselves for not living up to their “spiritual” ideas. What if there is nothing to live up to—especially your own ideas of perfection. What if there is just Being…being in the moment. Learning in the moment. Understanding in the moment.
What if you could “forgive” yourself each moment? Where would be the stress, then? The tension? The despair? Wouldn’t it all disappear?
Let yourself be. Just be. Leave yourself alone for a while — stop identifying with harsh thoughts of lack, loss, fear, limitation, and self-condemnation. Stop letting harsh thoughts control you, make you feel bad and worthless.
Stop telling yourself that you did it wrong, should do it better. Accept what IS now. What just happened — happened. It’s over now. It’s over. You do not have to continually blame and reproach yourself for what just happened—whether it happened a minute ago or ten years ago. You really don’t. You. Really. Don’t.
You are free to forgive yourself. Now. Each now. Each now is new when you do not carry the burdens of a moment ago into now—otherwise, there is no now for you. There is only the past with all its burdens.
Let yourself alone. Let yourself be. At least for a moment. At least this moment. Perhaps you’d like to tour to a tomb in Egypt today... https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=NeiMEZa9d93&fbclid=IwAR2sQ5D54j3XIiH6SQKMQuPc9ytsZDHtmtiMNfECZ3-OFGb5tAAQhaL3LKM
