@ Ruth and @ Spaced
Thank you guys very much for the useful information! I think you are both 'right'.
Regarding becoming more mindful, like I said, I know what I need to do....I just don't wanna do it sometimes! But why not, when in every instance I walk away in a state of complete grace and harmony with myself and my surroundings? Thats the question I should be asking myself.
For me the cure-all tool has been meditation. Sitting, silent meditation with intention to maintain a silent single pointed-like awareness. I find great peace in this, its almost like, only during this time, when thoughts are absent...I am able to truly heal. I know Quo' talks a lot about the importance of meditation and this is in part why I resonate so much with their message; as I have found in my life, meditation to benefit every single aspect of my life, as it helps me experience the world from a more present and aware state.
When I come out of the meditative state, I feel as though I truly am choosing...because whatever seems to present itself following that period, even if is someone yelling at me for some reason, lets say, I perceive the event with a more open heart and feel untouchable...because my ego isn't so strong @ the forefront trying to defend itself...I have much more to say regarding my relationship with this state of being but instead of posting it all here I think I will start a new thread sometime today.
