NOTE: THIS IS A LENGTHY ENTRY
I logged off earlier than usual, around 0200. Nazir sent me some cute songs, which unfortunately, didn`t seem to cheer me up. I`m not certain if he sensed that I wasn`t really myself last night. Owells.
Lately, it hurts to breathe. Literally. I haven`t told anyone about it. I only go to bed once my sister is asleep, just so she won`t hear me wheeze. I don`t wanna disrupt her sleep. My gut feeling tells me it`s my bronchitis again.
Anyway before I hit the sack, I switched on my hp & i read the text Afiq sent me in the afternoon. I realised I missed certain parts of it. & after reading the entire msg, I cried. Somehow, I`m frustrated with myself for being SOOOO emotionally weak lately. It`s like I look at myself in the mirror, everything looks fine on the surface, but i have the urge to smash the mirror, shatter my own reflection. As if the broken pieces can hurt my inner self.
I need to find peace within myself. It`s about time.
During the course of my life thus far I have buried my soul deep within, covering it so that my mind believes my soul is no longer of consequence. I believe I am in my thinking rather than my feelings; this is to the cost of my soul. I have lost sight of the fact that my deepest yearning is love. I forget that love is what I crave. Deep down I know this; on the surface I barely dare believe it.
When I decide and make the attempt to get closer to my true being, then I am on the path to again being with my soul which is love. To help me do this I need to make space for love, for I have so filled myself with the clutter of life that little freedom remains. I am to remove the bits and pieces, the possessions, the junk and debris that I have taken on board. I am to eliminate all that is not love. In doing so I am to be patient with myself, kind, caring and looking at my internal presence rather than my external appearance.
I am to cease rushing about hecticly and in preference stay with myself for that is where I am and where love is to be found. Love is within, truth is within, peace is within, joy is within. Everything I require is within. I ache to again be with these gifts of self, to again be who I rightly am. I have strayed.
If I cast out all the unnecessary debris of life, then I am making room for the new. The space made available, I may fill with love. As I do this, I will be able to see differently, to perceive otherwise and again become love. All I have to do is try. If I deny myself this opportunity then I do not allow the hopes of change and without hope there is no peace and love cannot be. I make space within as I cast out the worldly so that I may then freely receive.
Previously, I have been full of absurdity and filled with the paraphernalia of our worldly society. I may choose to throw out all the bric-a-brac out of my life and by so doing I free myself to again, be my own reality. As I accept, then I find love, I re-unite with the love within and I open to giving love and in return receiving love. I am able to find myself and again be with my soul. It is my decision to do so, I am free to choose. I have permission to do these things; all I have to do is accept.
To decipher the present from the past, to recognise the past from the present.
I know I am strong. I am weak because I allow myself to feel this way. With God`s grace, I`ll sail through this. & I`ll give it all, give my all to be in harmony & sync with my inner self once again. & I shall once again, open my heart to love the next man. Sincerely.
It can only be I who, in the past, has imposed limitations on the amount of love I have been prepared to accept, for who else might it be? I see nothing beyond my self-imposed limits. I may blame others, but my life is of my own doing. I am free to discard my limitations to see beyond, to see love.
Now, this moment, is my opportunity to accept love to the fullest. I may go within, to where love is infinite and everlasting. The opportunity is given to me. I am never alone in this quest, love cannot desert me. My life’s purpose is love. From this instant on, I am living to love and no longer dying to love. My soul heals as I do so, my being is again alive.
Where there is no need for sacrifice, for all is surrendered. All has been let go and truth revealed. All is in balance.
I`ll take my leave now. Enough for today. bye bye.
