Victim Mindset: Watch it. Laught at It.

 Noticing today my mind/ego's tendency to blame others and see myself as the Victim. I've been hardcore noticing this for months now. Every...single...daaayyyyy. 

I love that I'm noticing it. That's making my unconsciousness conscious. Shining light on the darkness. Darkness like lacking light, not darkness like "evil." Makes me think of that quote-- "Cracks let the light in." That's a good one. My weaknesses/shortcomings/struggles propel me deeper into the light aka healing & wholeness. 

When I notice seeing myself as a victim, I am usually good at not beating myself up for it. It's like, "there it is again." Me as the Watcher (true/higher self) noticing that my mind/ego/lower self is having a pity party. It's laughable, really. Sometimes I do laugh at it. I need to do that more. Like an LOL one.

Isn't it funny how we label people "crazy" for talking nonsense out loud to themselves, yet it is normal for people to talk nonsesne inwardly? I remember Eckhart pointing that out in one of his books, and I was like, yea, that is pretty insane.

Notice...notice...notice. That's bringing Presence/Consciousness to Unconsciousness. You don't even need to do anything about it. That's the good news. It's simple/straightfoward, but not easy. You certainly don't need to try and have a different thought. Presence is what Transmutes insanity. (Transmutes. I love how that word FEELS) Presence...presence...preseeeennnncccceee!!!

 Try your very freakin best to be kind to yourself. I've been so damn hard on myself all my life, and it hasn't worked out so well. Well, I shouldn't say it that way...my life is unfolding exactly as it's meant to be. I do believe there is purpose and order to our lives. 

But yes, please be really really really really really really KIND TO YASELF. 😍

It sounds way easier than it actually is. But for real, try it! 

So, why playing the role of Victim? Hmm... maybe to alleviate responsibility...or for some mysterious reason my ego likes that role. It feels safe. Probably stems back to childhood and also past lives. I'm not one of these blame-everything-on-childhood (or your parents) kind of person, but I also don't deny the reality of deep woundings in childhood having significant impacts on how we are shaped into adults. Or "adults" for some people haha. Big kids, I should say. Or kids in adult bodies...there it is! 

I don't need to make anything go away. Be it uncomfortable emotions, seeing myself as victim, bodily discomfort, etc. Trying to make anything go away is resisting the NOW, the moment at hand. That will never work. That doesn't mean you don't take necessary action either. Not an excuse to do nothing or be lazy. Accept, then act appropriately. WAY easier said than done, trust me. 

I feel complete. Peace to you, today. ✌
