We Always Find Ourselves – We are the Ones we are Waiting For - (1033)

Introduction

Sometimes in life things happen that may disappoint us or disillusion us or make us feel empty or make us feel that we are lacking or missing something or we are without something.

These are good experiences, because after a while of trying to get the thing that we thought that we could get but in truth we can not, we come to see that what we are left with is ourselves.

At the End we are Left with Ourselves

At the end of all things that is what we are left with – ourselves, and the question of ourselves, is our very own real Being in our depths.

We are left with the dilemma of looking inwards, into ourselves to find our Being and seek refuge there and develop within our interior for ourselves what we lack, or we can forget that all we are left with, which is ourselves and try and get what we lack from outside. The latter option is like to forget the truth that all we are left with is ourselves and fall asleep and begin to chase something that we can not catch but we believe we can catch it this way.

After everything goes or ends we are only left with ourselves and that has to be fine. We have to relate well with ourselves because that is who we are and that is who we are left with before life, during life and after life.

Any Moment Can Bring Us to Ourselves

We are at any moment turned over to ourself. When we are ignored, left behind, rejected, humiliated, attacked, insulted, excluded etc. we are left to be with ourselves.

All these happenings and events in which we are disappointed or disillusioned teach that we should always be with ourselves and we have to really like at first and then love or be able to take refuge within ourselves and with ourselves.

Conclusion

When we realize that we are only ever with ourselves or with our Being we can then begin to make something of the pains of being rejected, neglected, ignored, etc. weaker. This is because we are not afraid of a situation that will bring us back to ourselves or in other words closer to the Being.

If we are not afraid of being with ourselves and able to feel complete with ourselves we will become a lot freer.
