Viewing a response to: @samsmith1971/the-illusion-of-self
Terrific!! You’re insane for this @samsmith1971 To be a prisoner of your own mind. So strong and intense that it demands total surrender. The end of a consciousness and the beginning of another. Emily’s troubles feels relatable in our reluctance to confront the parts of us we don’t like so much. To accept in totality that we are both Emily and Maxine; not a saint and not a sinner. Just a conflicted fusion of both. I see Emily and Maxine making peace. That is the only way to win this game, this fight of an illusion of self. Maybe she stops seeing Maxine as the cruel powerful villain who’s out for her. I would encourage Emily to make room for the chaos. I would also tell her it is okay not to purse those memories but to just accept. I was also moved by her pondering about who would be left standing when she dies and, I feel for her. I would say Life is too big to try and make sense of it’s place when death comes. I think it is pointless worrying about how well we fare in the afterlife for that is not our fight anymore. Our salvation is in the acceptance of self rooted in love. We are taught to love all and that should flow inward too. It is so beautiful that she has her unwavering faith despite it all. Hey darling, I love your mind and your take on this month’s prompt. Amazing stuff. Thank you. ❤️😍

ah, Sugar, what an awesome comment on this short story of mine. Truly, I appreciate *you*! I love how you have applied the concept underlying the story as a metaphor for human life in general. And I think there are many times in life that we find ourselves conflicted over situations, relationships, events - and conflicted too over our responses to all the aforementioned... and perhaps a more loving acceptance of our different viewpoints that we hold within the self - of the various wranglings as we struggle to work out where we stand on issues of importance, is something that is needed. But as you said... *LOVE* ... let's start there... with a love for self, a love for others... a bit of compassion and humility. We are not born perfect and we don't die perfect. Between dawn and dusk... we may have glimpses of what that could be like... but we are here to learn, to grow, to do better. Acceptance of our own imperfection is not submission - it is simply awareness and awakening to its existence, and knowing that we don't have to stand and fight alone. !LUV !ALIVE
