Is this of you?Is that the biggest question someone should ask themself?
Is it a new awareness after a deep and long spiritual quest for understanding the Truth of who you really are?
Can you live in a continuous letting go, unclinging...without expectations? Do you need control? Can you let go of the reigns? Can you just be and allow others to be?
What does Freedom really mean to you? The freedom to have what you want? Or the freedom to be who you are?
Is it motivated from circumstances or others outside of yourself?
Does it come from yearning...hope of gain or acceptance?
Is it moved from desperation... fear of loss?
Indifference or lack of interest in the current relationship?
New focus outside of it?
Would you have come to the conclusion on your own...without other factors pursuading you?
Are you secure in your aloneness? Have you really been alone?
Empowered with the realization that you are a LONE being? Or does the thought of that bring feelings of despair? (natural to have those feelings, but is that feeling the greater force within you?)
We're born alone, die alone...in the spiritual sense, forever alone. No one is going to fulfill us entirely, whether one or dozens. Life is stages, cycles....storms and calms...hills and valleys. Once the moment has passed......and you find yourself alone again under the sky (as you always will eventually)....will you be ok? Or forever searching for something beyond yourself to complete you? Something outside to define you and give meaning to your existance?
Could you weather the storms of life alone?
Is it a striving... or is it who you truly are, here in this now?
Or how you wish to be perceived? An image to project?
Do you need a mirror to see yourself?
Are you living your own Truth, bravely, unswayingly?
Or are you bending in the breeze?
If it is natural and True to who you are...could there be wrong in it?
But if it is not Truth...how could it be right?
