Life Is Always Telling You Something; You Need to Be Able to Catch the Signs

The separation

Every life starts with a separation. The moment you were born, you separated yourself from your mother. Throughout your whole life, you will feel this separation constantly.

When we become adults, this first separation creates multiple sensations in our bodies, such as anxiety. Anxiety often makes us feel like we are not part of something more significant such as the universe.

Anxiety takes over your whole body, and you lose yourself in your thoughts. In the most painful moments of your life, you constantly ask: why is this happening to me?

The silence

The silence can feel unbereable. You get afraid of spending a whole day alone, and there is an itch. You quite cannot scratch it. You walk around your house; no one is around. No one can distract you. From who? From you.

It’s hard to feel painful emotions, especially when society tells us that feeling sad or crying is terrible.

You find power in silence. If you take advantage, you confront painful thoughts — the energy in finding creative and specific solutions to your problems.

Riding the bicycle

Imagine you are riding a bike. The cycle is in equilibrium when life is going well, but something happens. For example, you get fired from your job, or you meet a person that turns up and down your life, and then you feel you will fall from the bike, or maybe the bike can go sideways, moving slowly, almost falling but not, and then after you find the equilibrium again. We will never escape from experiencing this analogy.

The uncertainty

In the face of uncertainty, we find the most definite truth. That nothing in your life is secure and permanent.

But when you face uncertainty, we need to remind ourselves: “ Oh, maybe I need to let go and trust more in myself and life. What is life trying to tell me?”
