Sometimes, I still feel like I'm waiting for my life to start.

Hello, livejournal. Long time, no see. After something like 5 years away, I'm writing here again.

Am I even the same person who started this journal?

Emily I am only going to ever ask you for one thing in this life. Only this once am I going to say, for ME and for YOU, please can you do something for me? I know I sent you a book awhile back that you never read and that is fine. BUT there is a book that you MUST read. It is going to take everything you wrote on here, break it down, and make you realize why you feel this way. It is going to help you get stronger, it's going to help you end suffering and it's going to give you valuable information to help give to other people ( ... )

When you finish reading Eckhart, then come back to this post you've written and re-read it.

Suddenly the heaviness and seriousness you felt when you wrote this, will almost seem silly. It'll be transparent and less powerful a hold on you. What you felt is not silly by any means, but when you look at things with clarity and stillness, you will realize you have control over these things, they are only temporary, and you will not believe how much time you spent suffering, by simply listening to your compulsive thoughts and fears.

Find your stillness.<3
