I have writers block.... (and riders block)...so I am going to WRITE about it and RIDE it out! Well, I have struggled with what to write for some time. And I was going back and forth with whether or not to just find something that drew me in or to just start from scratch. So, Ive decided to write about writers block... HAHA. Staying true to my motor vehicle metaphor, I have decided that my gps (ego) has been counter-productive in getting me to jot anything down! You see, my passion is lifecoaching. Spiritually, I KNOW intrinsically that we all are capable fo being lifecoaches, and have answers within ourselves, and it is up to us as a conscious community to help one another pull those answers out. However, Humanistically speaking, my ego has me challenging every thought I wish to put on paper/monitor. My ego is identifying with the label of a life coach and I am unconsciously entertaining thoughts that happen to prompt fear of rejection of my writings, judgement by potential and previous clients, etc. Like any gps. every second I am getting new messages telling me to U-turn when possible (erase that last line), restriced access on the route (you are limited to how many people you can reach with this approach), etc. These thoughts just happen to us (just as Eckart Tolle and many other incedible writers have shared), so why is it we pay it so much mind? THATs SO SILLY! Im gonna work through this right here and now. WIth my metaphor and puns in tow of course! NICE! There is one already! So, as I sit here wondering whether or not I should continue or if this will make sense to anyone, I acknowledge that the EGO in me sees (assumes) the ego in others. My body a mere vessel and my ego the never-ceasing gps.... You see, the ego isntgood or bad. It just comes with the car The feature can be annoying, but once we really figure out our owners manual, we can focus on how to recalibrate it. As yu may know, I tend to use puns and metaphors quite a bit to coach others and myself through this human experience. I often refer to our bodies and temporary vessels bestowed upon us while experiencing life. A classmate of mine, Nkisi, once said god pods and I loved it, but using cars instead proved an easier road to travel for puns....see what I did there? Now, I do believe that we should take care of our cars and I will elaborate on that journey as it happens (while studying holistic nutrition and other modalities in the healing arts). In the meantime, if there is one basic thing I would like us to remember whenever we can, it is that although it is easy for us to judge others by their cars outer appearance(es), the truth is, these are all just temporary cars. Loaned to us. And not in any way, WHO/WHAT we are. They are merely vehicles as we transit this life cycle. So, some of us may have done some things to our cars to make them look better, cleaner, bigger, luxurious... some of us might have gotten some stenciling done (tattoos), or even had some major overhauls (like extra large airbags - if you know what I mean...) and some of us like to upgrade our rims every now and again with a little mani/pedi action. It is no big deal. Sure, the ego might have suggested it, for whatever reason...but lets not judge each other based on our outer vehicles color, make, model, size, capacity, dents, scrapes and missing bumpers...Envision your EGO (a normal part of the human experience) as a feature that just comes with every car! It is like a non-stop GPS, that just cannot seem to sit idle. Ever. We literally have to tune it out. And we do that by BEING. Ill explain in depth as I experience BEING myself. In the meantime, ask yourself why our GPS seem to be constant, even when we are in the shop, completely overwhelmed by stress. It sure is resilient, huh? Honk if youre Ornery (to be stubborn - like the GPS) And consider complimenting others vehicles. Where am I going? Well, if I continue to listen to my gps and hesitate to take any route whatsoever in fear of missing the right path, Ill literally go nowhere. Ill have nothing sent out to my fellow beings that I have met here and have had the opportunity to grow and share this human experience with. This is all I have to share. My wheels arent spinning with ideas, but you know what, I am satisifed with the effort I have made to interact today. This post doesnt have to be perfect, or engaging or funny or liked. Its simply perfect existing, just the way it is...And you and I, equally perfect just as we are written in history... We are right on track. BEEP BEEP
