experience
changes us,
teaches us,
shows us,
but the knowledge
is all inside.

Blog about the piece:
(Via an old journal writing)
Have you ever noticed that the more you surrender the better you feel? The other day I woke up in a funk. The grey sky outside reflected my own gloomy feelings. I did yoga and ate breakfast but nothing seemed to work. Then my best friend texted me to say that she was having a bad day, that she woke up in a sad mood and that she couldn’t shake it. When I thought of what to say to her I was simply reminded to listen to my own knowing -- that some days we want to resist life and indulge the ego. But the truth is that all we need to do is surrender -- let go of the struggle and recognize our own resistance. After I wrote to her I felt at ease myself. Sometimes we need those outside reminders to show us the way within. That’s what life is about… that’s why we experience.
