This post is for those mornings or days or moments when it feels like blah. Blah can be anything - boring, not exciting, dull, low - you know what I mean.
What do we do when we feel a certain way which we don't like? Our first reaction is to snap out of it, force ourselves to feel differently, trying to change it to anything that remotely looks like a happy emotion. But sometimes it is best to do nothing. We do nothing ABOUT IT. And instead we take baby steps in the same state - waking up, making our favourite coffee, sipping our coffee, enjoying the aroma and flavour of the coffee, cleaning the room, reading a book, washing a vessel, watching something, talking to someone, stepping out - just basically doing anything we want/can/have to/love without judging ourselves. By doing this, we are not fighting with ourselves - we are not fighting to change the way we feel, we stay with the feeling and do our chores. This immediately relaxes us as the toughest job in the world is to fight with ourselves.
I guess this is what it means JUST TO BE. Being a silent observer of our own life, not categorizing our thoughts, not labeling our thoughts and actions helps us to be in the moment.
So the question now is what if every day is a blah day. We just need to remind ourselves that each day is different and very unique. No matter what we believe, every day is a new day, every moment is a new fresh moment. So it is ok not to feel great all the time right? Because every feeling changes, goes away. Our feelings, emotions and thoughts are just like plants - old leaves/flowers/fruits fall and new ones grow. So it is ok to be with a particular feeling without forcing it to go away as they will go away naturally. Remember a plant does not force its leaves to fall, it waits for it to fall naturally. At the same time, new leaves come up elsewhere just like new thoughts/feelings grow in a tiny corner in our mind.
My two cents for a raining Sunday morning 😁
Here's to a new fresh day, fresh moment!
We just have to remind ourselves about the newness and freshness of every moment.
