Perception

Best line ever!
Have been chilling and listening to heaps of music, who needs a therapist?
Music saves my sanity, well mostly haha
'Cause it’s always good to be a bit loose
 
Is she off her head? Yeah probably.
The lunacy, the irritated and the slightly insane.
 
The dark moon at the moment allows space for introspection
 
I can look easily and chose to let it go or hold on to it.
 
Surprisingly its getting easier and easier to let it go
 
 I’m talking about perceptions and opinions that at the end of the day mean nothing.

From others and self
 
Just a mind fuck of conditioning of how we should be.
 
So my question is, who determines how we should be? Is it self or the masses?
 
It’s a interesting question isn’t it?
 
Who do we have to prove it too? Ourselves/ society or both?
 
What if we don’t have to prove anything and just be?
 
Chilling and being your own magic, not proving anything to anyone?
 
We all have much to offer the world, some more than others.
 
Yet we judge ourselves and others harshly if it doesn’t fit into our own perceptions.
 
Hey I put my own hand up for doing that shit..A lot!!!
 
But I must be maturing. Who knew??!!
 
However, on the other hand when you do stand up and declare yourself
It can be taken the wrong way
So my thoughts, are you fucked either way?

Yeah probably
 
I think you just need to be  comfortable with it
 
I got no problem with being taken the wrong way, it happens a lot.
 
As I said in previous blog, it’s not peoples job to understand me.
 
Just as its not mine to understand them.
 
We can’t help what others perceive about us
It’s usually wrong anyway, our perceptions are based on what we feel, usually about ourselves and how we would react in situations.

We all react differently
 
In the spiritual world, I often feel misunderstood, again people’s perceptions of how one should act.
 
How does one act? That’s what I’d like to know?

But at the same time I don’t really care. I’ve been doing this a long time and know what I know, I also know what I don’t.
Being so completely honest with yourself that it hurts, owning it all, always works for me.
Is it pretty? Fuck no, it’s not meant to be.
 
That we are human, and make mistakes
That’s where the gold is, the mistakes and seeing them
That’s where the light is
That’s where the answers are
That’s where we face the shadow of doubt
 
It’s also how we heal and grow
 
 
In the shadow of the dark moon acknowledge it all and let it be
 
Rock on
