Welcome to the inner workings of a scorpion mind - our thoughts and our dreams  .  .  .


Being Ready for the Truth

If I may continue to share these thoughts...

"I would say that when we have felt suffering and loss and the ache for something better and we realize that it is our selves and not others that block us from our desires we are on the right step..."

I think you mean that the lies that we tell ourselves just boycott our desires. That we learn to be ready to hear the truth by trial and error: the more lies hurt us, the more our souls understand that the truth is better even though it still hurts, and only then we stop lying to ourselves. Because there is a difference between intellectual knowledge and deep-knowledge. Is that what you meant? Did I get it? Did I?  :-)

"or when one is ready to be honest to oneself and face the truth we lie to live and decide that the truth is more freeing when the pain subsides..."

So if we lie to live, does that mean that facing the truth is... not being afraid to die? Seeing death/truth as freedom? Seeing the great unknown not as the enemy but as a friend? Not the jailer but the freedom-fighter?

"I think when we are ready to grow we know and we can move on some times with help and other times as we are alone we thrive with what we have"

So there is no shortcut, eh? *sighs*

I think you hear the truth and I often view life as a shortcut that seems from our view to take forever... but in reality it is a quick journey of experience too soon lived and lost.

When we look in to the wish well and see our reflection we seldom see what is and look to see what will be.

Live in the now and enjoy it pleasures and its sorrows for tomorrow will come soon enough.
