Trauma


Eye do not know everything, and yes, the more I learn the less I know about life. Yet, I have rational thoughts like anyone else, with which I feel that I have an understanding of life. Let me divulge on my current one.

A baby falls down and is shocked. He lifts his head up to look around. His slate is completely clear. He looks around and sees the reactions of those he trusts most. If his parents come with pity, picking him up and say "Aww are you Ok? Are you hurt?" the child will react to their reaction. He thinks he must be hurt, because that is an emotion his parents are expecting him to portray. So he cries. It is what they are wanting, and so he gives it to them so they can comfort him.
Let's take it back. What if the parents smiled and said "oh you are Ok. I love you." The baby would just smile back and think that he is Ok. I have practiced this and it is true. Sometimes things happen, and we are Ok. It's the surrounding issues that make it not.
Something bad happens to you. You can move on, or live with it. A lot of the time it's society that keeps in weighing you down. This is bad, because I have been told it is bad, for example, and then it is that thinking that keeps a pain inside. Yet, if I had decided that something happened, but now it is just a thought or a memory and I no longer am experiencing that then it is Ok. Shock occurs as quick as a lightening bolt. The aftershock is so often a choice.
Have you ever felt emotions so pure that you are sure that they are out of your control? It is actually a very beautiful thing. It is a choice as well, but on the opposite side of the spectrum. It's taking responsibility for yourself, without exceeding the necessary amounts of emotions. The body surges with powerful feelings, that occur separately from thoughts of the mind. To be able to let these flow and feel them without letting your thoughts intervene is quite amazing. The mind comes with all these thoughts that carry a burden of pain, hold blame, anger, frustration and confusion. All these that are held will hurt you in return.
So, in conclusion, be honest with yourself about your feelings. Do not carry around hateful thoughts, or burdensome worries, or burning confusion. If these thoughts are played through conversation, then they will become lost in a false reality. You will be lost in a false reality. The truth is so simple, and so pure.
Let it Happen. Just Let it Happen.
