A Life Perspective

life_perspective

Maybe nothing needs to change besides my perspective.

Could it be? The illusion of this life I am living—if it is so—can I just change the channel, stop the movie or live the illusion with pure and heartfelt joy?

Oh, this romantic comedy could be so delightful from the perspective of the patron. Watching and wondering and laughing through it all as it unfolds into a beautiful ending.

It’s a love story for sure! Love for people, romance and the illusionistic dream of drama that we think we need—-the catalyst for the happy ending. The heartbreak. Watching, knowing it will be as it will—detached—-from the emotions attached to the thoughts, and the thoughts that create the illusion of a reality as real as the movie I watched last night.

Yes! This life—it’s a romantic comedy for sure!

When Therapy Hands You a Villain

Blame organizes pain quickly. It gives clarity where there was confusion. It offers a villain when the story feels messy. But it also flattens humanity.
