Which makes sense of course - "mind over matter" - and if you focus on that the evil elite want to humiliate and degrade us by the masks- yeah well does not surprise me that my friend who basically watches nothing else than conspiracy things tells me she cannot go out at all anymore bc the masks feel unsupportable and enslave her etc.
Now who is enslaving who ?
Ok maybe there is indeed an evil elite out there doing their best to enslave us - I dont know.
But all I can say - my friend is definitely enslaving herself thru her negative thoughts about the situation.
I loved your entire post.
I really enjoyed coffee shop exploration too. You never would have met her, or delved into that new experience. There is some comfort and self nurturing in this small things we do for ourselves.
I don’t get drink coffee but tea, I get it.
I wanted to comment on this quote of yours too. It is really astute. Realy really astute!
First wow I’m so sorry to hear that idea of humiliation has been planted. And then you are right though, we take these seeds(ideas) we take them and nurish them, basically enslaving ourselves.
I have a client that owes me several hundred dollars. She has money and it’s weird she isn’t paying. I let it bother me last Saturday all day feeling “taunted”, Saturday afternoon I realized she was not in fact standing in front of me enjoying me wondering about the money.
I infact was ruining my own day. Self enslavement. How silly, but I am grateful yet again I could recognize it, like you have regarding the mask humiliation link and just stop letting my mind perpetuate an experience.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience.
It was enlightening and quite heartwarming.
Oh and thanks for the hug back!
