I do have an addictive personality.
And these days, my addiction was Facebook.
I loved what it brings to me.
I love the connection with people.
But I really see the superficiality of it.
It’s just that it takes me away.
It takes me away from living.
What I started to see is that I neglect a lot,
because of Facebook…
people… nature… the universe.
But actually it would be a lot more beneficial to me,
to my dog if I went for a walk,
or plant something and watch it grow.
But if I don’t do it, and I’m into this little thing,
which is actually very detrimental to me,
it’s not serving anything.
It’s not a real thing, it’s not a real thing.
It can be used, but not abused,
like I was abusing.
I usually go onto Facebook when I want to escape
from real living.
There’s a lot right here that I need to deal with.
Being caught there is taking me away
from what I need to do here.
There's always challenges, always,
and they are hard.
Often I want to run away from it,
I want to leave.
But I can’t, there is no way.
I do have a very early memory of being very sad,
because my mom left when I was very young.
Looking at the stars and the moon and feeling,
I want to go there, I don’t want to be here,
because it was so hard.
We are so caught in this world.
We are so conditioned.
We get fashioned into something unreal.
There is something precious and unique in each one
that is valuable.
Get real.
Take time to be in your situation,
even if it is difficult.
Getting real, communicating…
I knew the key had to be breathing.
Whether you are a king or a pauper,
you are breathing each other.
We are breathing the dogs, we are breathing the plants,
we are breathing us.
It's the one thing.
So through breath, we can communicate,
we can unite.
Just connect to yourself, that's all.
And bring in light, just breathe in light.
Truly, you will feel so much better.
