A great mind.

Go beyond what you think

I have found that is extremely important to verify the content of our minds. Don’t just remain attached to your opinion, to your belief, to your tradition, to what others have said; but go beyond that and seek to open your mind to new perspectives through new information. This rigid attachment happens mostly to religious people and to people following politics.

I know from experience because I used to be religious. The scriptures, what people close to me said, what was preached in the Bible and in Church. All of it had stolen my ability to seek different perspectives and expand my mind. But I discovered that nothing is more important than to learn to think for yourself, without bias, without anything occupying room in your mind and misleading you.

Mental freedom

The mind is limited by its content. And that is why we must always be learning new things, new information, new science, new philosophies, new life views. Expand your mind’s content to bring freedom to your mind, such is freedom to think for yourself without being attached to anything.

Because what brings stubbornness, anxiety, pride, intolerance of others, is attachment to specific beliefs and viewpoints. Your mind must be free of this in order to understand yourself, others, and life itself. Freedom exists only when the mind is liberated from any attachment, and this liberation then gives you the capacity to open your mind and heart to all.

Silent understanding

The power in silence

Silence is not empty. Silence is energy, it can be communication, and it can be more meaningful than words. Oftentimes our minds are nervous, anxious about how to say something and how to express what we feel. Oftentimes our minds struggle to understand and let others know that we understand.

But instead of all this anxiety in the mind, we have silence, the power of silence, that we can certainly use to our advantage. The quiet evening at home with people we care about. Choosing to hug instead of arguing and trying to be right. Just making your mind quiet and giving all that mental energy to listen to somebody else.

Words can convey the wrong message

It’s not unusual to say the wrong word or the wrong sentence in sensitive or emotional communication. Sometimes we don’t mean to offend or hurt somebody else, but our words may sound insensitive, impulsive, or even harsh. I have found that silence can be much more effective in communications. Coupled with the right attitude, silence can better relationships.

Vital to move on

Self-acceptance

It is vital to move on. Self-acceptance means you respect yourself enough to forgive all the mistakes, the guilt, the shame, the negativity you carry and feel. Could be your burden. Could be the fault of somebody else. It doesn’t really matter. In order to accept yourself and gain peace, you must let it go.

A clear mind

Our minds are always chattering, loud voices telling us this and that. That is what being human is all about, and that is the challenge we all face to follow the right voices, to be influenced by the right voices. Because in order to find peace finally and accept yourself you have to follow the right voices.

And following the right voices, or allowing the right voices to influence you, means to clear you mind of toxic voices from the outside–toxic friends, toxic family, toxic movies, toxic music, etc. It’s extremely important you bring clarity and positivity into your mind to have the energy and strength needed to accept yourself and let go of the past.

What really matters

What matters

I admit it, when it comes to gift-giving, birthdays, holidays, traditional celebrations, I always forget. Not because I don’t care, but because I do not focus on these superficial creations of society. Everybody does it, so everybody feels that these things are important.

Well, I respect that completely; however, I’m here to remind you that what really matters is being there for your family, for your loved ones, for yourself. Sometimes is easy to get caught up with celebrities and their vain lives of money and silly pomposity.

Quite often, even in magazines and TV, people hammer your brain telling you that these superficial things matter. But what really matters is the time you spend with people, not what you buy. And what really matters is the listening and the respect you show for the struggle of another, not the poetry or words of love you say.

Growing together

Women & Men

Women and men are not so different in reality. Well, society has always told them they are very different. But when it comes to wanting to be understood, accepted, loved, acknowledged for who they are, they are not so different. We all need space, time, room to grow as individuals.

The key to any relationship is being there, showing your affection, with honesty; but not smothering people, thus giving them access to their own personas in order to understand themselves and their role in the relationship. It’s about freedom, because freedom is where true love grows.

Unselfishness

And relationships require openness with each other, and this openness is about exposing our feelings. This can be scary, I know this from personal experience; however, I also know now that opening your heart to somebody is about unselfishness. It’s easy to be selfish and remain safe in your emotional cocoon, but it takes real courage and true love to open yourself to someone.

That is being unselfish, because by opening your heart to someone you are sharing yourself with others, even running the risk of not being accepted. That takes a great human being, especially if you’ve been hurt in any way in the past. I wish you the best in your relationships moving forward.

How to in life…

The roller coaster of my life

I have always had challenges, problems, issues fitting in. Since high school I felt a little odd, like I needed to find my purpose, like I was the odd duck in a sense. It took me many years of heartbreak and family loss to finally understand that I was to follow myself, that I was meant for something different.

And that’s the key, isn’t it?? Finding yourself and letting go of heartbreaks, resentments, and all that burden one may carry. Because life is hard no matter what we do, so at least being free of these burdens helps you see more clearly. And clarity is what we require to live better and to give our best.

Embracing my roller coaster

And since life will always be hard, because there’s always something painful or sad, which is where the lesson of life hides, one must learn to embrace life as it is and expect everything with a positive mindset. Not a naïve attitude, but a mindset built to seek inspiration and good vibes daily. I have seen many I love die.

I have been victim of racism and all prejudice. Etcetera. But the truth is we all have suffered, and still do; however, learning from our past to be better in our present makes for a better future. This is something I won’t get tired of repeating. The past happened the way it did for a reason, and it is up to each one of us to acknowledge that reason or not.

Be who you want to be

The rights of people

The rights to feel love, happiness, self-worth, feeling free to live your life as you wish. These are the true rights of the human being. It does not matter gender, age, or any other condition, as long as you are a grown up and mentally capable of deciding for yourself.

Do not let the prejudice of others stop you from embracing your life with joy. That is your very right. The right to feel joy. We are all unique, different, capable of finding joy. But you must be free and stop letting others dictate how you should feel

Choose to be you

This seems easy to understand, but truth is sometimes people let themselves play a part just for others. Quite often others dictate how we behave, and we let ourselves fall into this pressure/this prison. And, yes, it is a prison to always try to please others or try to be what others expect.

Life must be lived with a mind that is absolutely free, and that takes courage because you must stand up for yourself and be yourself. Being yourself is using that right while feeling empowered to be who you want to be. Never forget this.

Meditation

Practicing meditation

I often think about how meditation has helped me throughout the many years. It really has done things in my body and mind that I hadn’t noticed before. And, even though tough at first, after years my mind has really gotten used to looking inwardly as daily practice.

I wanted to write this post in hopes that maybe I can help someone in this aspect. Maybe you seek to lessen your anxiety. Or perhaps you seek a greater control over your anger, frustration, and all negative thinking. Whatever it is, I think meditation is a practice for everybody seeking love, happiness, and all good things.

Benefits from meditation

-Sharing a moment with the silence in me each morning has expanded my mind and made me aware of deep insights. My creativity and capacity for creating vivid scenarios have really strengthened. Everything has become so clear.

-One thing that I’ve noticed gradually is that it has also increased my capacity to resist mental and physical pain. It makes my brain more calm when there is the presence of pain, and I can deal with it without trying to escape it with great desperation and anxiety.

There are many more great outcomes of just knowing my deep self, beyond the noises of my mind, far from the confines and imprisonment of the limiting conscious. Because, I have learned after many years of practice, that meditation opens a gateway into my very subconscious.

Growing relationships

A clear mind

Dates. Getting to know each other. Romance. Not appearing too clingy. Trying to show your best side. It’s all very challenging, isn’t it?? That’s the human experience, trying to form relationships, any sort of connection.

But, quite often, the problem is the anxiety in the mind, the nervousness, having a lot questions in there, all this pressure. It took me a long time, but now I understand that it is all about having a mind free of all this. That is, a mind which can be relaxed and not overthinking.

The damage is overthinking things, trying to answer all questions, seeking to be the one who understands how to do everything in a relationship. But letting it go, flowing with what is, just letting it happen–that’s what is required.

No expectations

Relationships are important, but they can be easy to damage. As mentioned, sometimes we put a lot of pressure on us to be this and that. But this only makes it worse, because no one is free and happy if we feel like we carry big burdens. And expectations can be burdens.

Expecting something to be the way we want, or trying to make another person like us or love us the way we want. Any expectation becomes a program in our minds, and it affects the way we interact with each other. And we may get angry easily, or tend to have no tolerance, or get frustrated with ourselves or with the other person easily.

So, I’ve learned that relationships become a success when we carry no burdens. Love is like a garden of flowers, and weeds are the expectations. Weeds choke the beautiful flowers. Get rid of the weeds, so the garden grows.

People in your life…

People who do not support you

Life is filled with surprises, challenges, and maybe ugliness. But just understanding that all of it is your path can bring you some sense of positivity in your mindset. Sometimes we don’t choose the people who surround us, like family for example. And perhaps there are times when we don’t feel supported by the people who cares for us.

Just know that is okay. Not everybody is going to see it your way. Not everybody has the same visions that you have. We are all different, made by our childhoods and our experiences growing up, so just allow yourself to let go of any frustration you feel towards others. You just focus on growing and moving forward.

People who do support you

It’s vital to pay attention as we go through life. Pay attention to family, to friends, to coworkers, to neighbors. There will be people who support you, people who take the time to understand you. Maybe not too often. Maybe whenever it has to be.

But always remain grateful to these people. Always share your kindness and love, not only for them; but for yourself, to fill your heart and mind with positive vibes and joy. After all, you need positive vibes and joy to remain strong and enthusiastic in life, and especially through the hardest times.
