What is it about the human condition that causes individuals to remain “trapped” in a state of “fear”? What is it that causes most people to perpetuate their own fears and bad habits, even if it ultimately results in creating more unhappiness for them? Is it that they feel the social pressure to “fit in” and “conform” is SO overwhelming and overpowering that they can’t go against the grain? Or is it that they simply do not want to do all the “internal” work necessary to truly present themselves “as they are”, or “as they honestly want to be”, to the outside world? Their minds are constantly conditioned and trained as to what they “should be” and are“expected to be” as opposed to having any kind of freedom of choice! Often times, this social conditioning is done so automatically and regularly that the person doesn’t even realize they are being “programmed” and instilled with another’s agenda or belief system. “To live” ought to be “to evolve”, so why are most people often “stuck” in a zone without being able to move past it and grow? Why is it that they are not “choosing” to expand their horizons and challenge their insides?
The outside world can shape who we become, however, there is innate and magical “internal” powers that each human being possesses that they can tap into in order to reach and exercise their higher self. Just as anything truly valuable and worth having in life, this innate power doesn’t emerge to the surface easily and effortlessly. It needs attention, nurturing, educating,and cultivating. The very first step is always “acknowledgment” that such a problem, or rather, such a need, exists. By acknowledging that there is such a problem or need, the mind is then prepared to start sending out the energy and signals into the universe that it is seeking a solution and an answer! We attract what we project into the universe,so in essence, if one is open to growing, and “receiving” guidance from the universe, the right answers will come! But be prepared for the “journey”, do not fear the “unknown” and the“uncertainty”, relinquish control to the universe, and be ready for anything! Once the inner strength is developed to face any challenge without fear or hesitation, the higher self will commence the “rejuvenation” period! That is the beginning of happiness!
