Why Wake Up?

A great question, and the simplest answer is - because it is happening anyway.

I like to remind myself often that everything is equal parts easy/hard. You can really spend stupid amounts of time comparing and analysing your potential options and routes through it, from moment to moment - and it is a sweet thought that we believe we can actually mitigate the easy/hard levels of our own lives. How long do we deliberate between two or more alternatives, carefully selecting the option we believe will be easier or lend itself to be more favourable for us, only to find that a whole load of unforeseen circumstances turned everything over on its head - and something that was meant to be so simple, ended up having a shitload of challenges and ‘hard’ surprisingly come along for the ride.

Essentially, it is in your best interest to practise letting go of the desire to make things ‘easier’ and accept that you will be given the exact level of easy/hard you want, on a Higher Level. There is a You that is orchestrating all of this for you, be grateful you’re even allowed to see this much behind the scenes and don’t allow yourself to fool yourself into thinking that you can actually make things easier or harder - focus on choosing the human experience you want - and accept that the route you get taken on and through, is the route you custom built for yourself.

So, the question remains Why Wake Up? Because it is You that you are talking to anyway, always. So it is in your best interest to start listening deeply to Your Self. What do you want? What don’t you want? What excites you? What scares you? All the questions you may have about yourself, start to listen to your own life with the wonder that you just might be answering yourself. Listen to the answers and most importantly, pay attention to your reaction to these answers. They are the signposts for how you truly feel about yourself and that my friends, is the whole point of Waking Up (or so I have found so far). I don’t know too much more than that, but that truly is the first real step in waking up… How do I actually feel about myself? Once we can answer this question honestly and deeply, we can move on to the next part of Lucid Dreaming.. wherever on Heaven, Hell or Earth that may be…
