Awakening the Mighty Warrior Within
Did you know that you are a mighty warrior?
Do you find that hard to believe?
It’s alright. Because I believe for you. For us both.
I know you are a warrior, because, we are the same, though different.
I am here to tell you, that you in fact, are mighty.
Way more mighty than you think you are.
Despite your anxiety.
Despite your depression.
I don’t care if you are bipolar, or if you are schizophrenic .
The truth is, you are mighty in power.
Where does the power come from?
It comes from within.
But first, you have to have the courage to go within.
That means turning off the television. Turning off the headphones. Turning off your phone. Eliminating music.
Go. Within.
Sit with yourself for five minutes and your whole life could change.
Go past the incessant thoughts and mental chatter.
Go deeper.
Go within.
If you take the time to check in with yourself, you may find out things you never knew about yourself.
Maybe, you will feel your life force for the first time.
Maybe, you will realize you are not your thoughts.
Maybe, you will realize you are not depression. Or, anxiety.
Maybe, you will realize that you are joy, and bliss, even.
And once you touch base with your true self, you will always be able to go back to that place.
You can find rest for your weary soul.
So, how does this make me a warrior, you ask?
Well, once you get that first taste of awakening, you will have a choice to make.
To pursue your true self in a world that values distraction, or, to go back to sleep and pretend you are just little me, once again.
The warrior chooses awakening, even though the journey to realness may be perilous. The warrior tries their best to awaken the others.
But, I’m not asleep, I hear you say.
Oh, yeah, Can you fathom the depth of a drop of water? Infinite and abounding.
Do you still speak without purpose? For the awakened, every word is delivered with the potential to awaken another.
You see, you can’t just tell someone to wake up. And you can’t tell them exactly how you woke up. They have to wake up on their own, at their own time. But, we can plant little seeds that will aid in the awakening process.
So, Warrior, What do you choose?
Do you wish to wake up and be a vessel for awakening?
Are you A. Wake?
Or, do you wish the stay asleep, and be a slave to society?
You see, the awakened are free, completely.
I woke up this morning, I hear you say.
But did you? Or, did you just go from one dream to another?
How can you tell if you are awake?
Are you overjoyed at the simple things of life?
Do you feel persistent peace?
Do you bust out laughing for seemingly no reason multiple times throughout the day?
Do you desire to awaken the others?
You are a mighty Warrior.
Now choose what side you are on.
