FRIDAY THOUGHTS #100: SELF-AWARENESS

 

Self-awareness.

Have you ever had a moment when you realized that a very large issue you had with someone turned out to be, in fact...all your fault? I'm sure you have. 

I recently had a situation like that...well, I need to meditate on it more, but it does seem like this could be the case. We shall see.

Now, I won't get into the details - the details don't matter tbh. What matters is that I'm thankful to have the level of awareness to not look at situations through an emotional lens but rather through the lens of logic....and I'm thankful that I'm self-aware enough to do this with myself. I really don't care in life who is right or wrong, I am simply a seeker of truth and I am obsessed with finding it. I have no problem pointing out my faults and mistakes, I have zero problem with doing that, matter of fact I applaud the people that are able to do that. That level of awareness is necessary in life...we don't know it all, we always need to be open to the correction that comes from our mistakes. I'm still growing, still learning...and enjoying this beautiful process of life.

Self-awareness my friends seems like a lost art nowadays - you just see the sheer lack of it in the people you meet and date. When you meet someone that is able to use logic instead of emotion, self-reflection instead of deflection and apologize freely when the make mistakes - hold on to that person...they are rare and beautiful characters. Enjoy them and reciprocate that love. I see you champions and I'm proud of you. #keepgoing
