Episode 99: So What? Letting it Pass Through
September 18, 2023
We cling to or resist external circumstances, others’
perspectives, outside voices, just to be okay. We believe if we cling onto
something in our minds, we will eventually become more of that thing (like
praise), and if we resist something in our minds, we will become less of that
thing (like criticism).
We believe by clinging or resisting, we will be okay. The opposite
is true. We become disconnected and disengaged. And our inner place of peace
gets covered up.
In this episode, we will identify the clinging and resisting
and let these things “pass through”.
It doesn’t have to be
The blue iris, it could be
Weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones;
Just pay attention, then patch
A few words together and don’t try
To make them elaborate, this isn’t
A contest but the doorway
into thanks, and a silence in which
Another voice may speak.
Praying, Mary Oliver
