So much is moving through us. I’m talking at speeds that feel unstoppable. Yet somehow we tend to catch the mindset of the moment. Some of them we can handle. Others elevate the true existence of something we wish we had better control of and over. It’s ok to say we’ve changed as a generation. Marc Maron recently talked about how we’re starting to wear this Covid world we’re trapped in. You can see it in the wrinkles of our face. Look at the way we’re wearing our hair and clothing. Now that we’ve talked about the change, what is it we’ve changed into? What should we change into? How can we make the best change? I mean we still have that go getter winning attitude right? I heard others talk about how we’re more forgiving and understanding while developing a better relationship with patience. This must be what it feels like to move through an evolution. Put two people in the same place at the same time. They both experience the exact event. Inside an hour they’re talking about it and their version of the moment is completely different. I’m hearing this with the Covid. My two sisters have gone through the effects of the pandemic. To hear them talk was like a competition, “I did this.” “Well I did this.” “No you didn’t because this would’ve taken place!” Human nature. Always comparing. So where’s your front door? Seriously! The mindsets and mental challenges need escapes. A way out. Where’s your front door? I talk a lot about living in the presence of Now. Does that give me permission to erase? No. I just don’t find reason to keep living Ground Hog Day over and over. Should we be locating places to erase? To make room for more. Where’s your front door? How are you digesting this mess? Or are you hoarding it? Putting it in separate compartments. To deal with later. Maybe never. But we chose to carry the weight. Instead of making space. Let’s erase. Find your front door. Mine happens to be a combination of daily disciplines which include meditation, journaling, listening to frequency music designed to calm the wicked shores of our outside shell and creating new food ideas in the kitchen. Where’s your front door? Let’s create it.
