What You Truly Wanted

What is it that you desire right now?

Is it money?
Is it a partner?
Is it a job?
Is it health?

Or perhaps,
it might be a relationship where you can feel secure.

Of course,
there is nothing wrong with wanting those things.

I myself,
have had many wishes until now.

But, at one point, this question came to mind.

"Why do I want that?"

I tried looking beyond my wishes.
Then, I noticed something strange.

I want money because I want to feel secure.

I want to be healthy because I want to spend my days in peace.

I want an ideal partner because
I want to feel love and live with a calm heart.

I want to succeed in my career because
I want to gain the sense of security that comes from living as my true self.

When I looked at them one by one,
even though the wishes were different,
there was something common deep down.

That was,

"security" or "peace of mind"

all along.

We tend to think,

"I will be secure once the conditions are met."

We think this way.

If only my income increased. If only I met the ideal partner. If only my problems disappeared.

That way, you can feel at ease.

However, as I learned and gained experience myself, I realized that the order was actually reversed.

Peace of mind is not something that is given from the outside.

First, peace of mind is born within, and that peace changes how you perceive reality and the choices you make.

As a result, reality also begins to change little by little.

That is why I

cherish the phrase, "The inside reflects on the outside."

so much.

And when your inner self is filled with peace, a mysterious change also occurs.

The strong attachment of

"I must absolutely obtain this" begins to soften little by little.

The anxiety of not having something.
The fear of losing it.
The pain of comparing yourself to others.

The time spent being swayed by such things gradually decreases.

Then, space naturally opens up in your heart.

That space leads to choices and actions that are true to your authentic self.

If you are currently thinking, "I want to spend my time peacefully" or "I want to make my wishes come true,"

the first step might not be to change the outside, but to turn your consciousness toward your inner self.

Once the foundation of peace is established, life begins to flow naturally without you having to force it to move.

Remembering your true self and living a life based on peace and tranquility.

Why don't we choose to live that way together from now on?
