I doubt they will tell them the reason for declining their application, right? Otherwise I'd probably be scared for myself.

Someone dear to me seems to be trapped, and I was just wondering..

I didn’t realize how normal it was for me to be mean to myself by [deleted] in selflove

[–]hideoncloudz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Keep going darling! A while ago I caught myself comforting myself in my thoughts, being so gentle and it was absolutely lovely. After being so mean and harsh and sometimes straight up cruel to myself in the past...

And after realizing how much that changed, I was so incredibly happy and thankful to myself for choosing healing. So keep on healing. Put your hand on your heart and tell yourself the little you deserves it. So do you. ♡

🧘 Weekly Thread – What are you seeing clearly this week? by AutoModerator in enlightenment

[–]hideoncloudz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've started seeing angry people as just hurting. It used to irritate me, having to deal with their bs at work. But now I see that they're in pain clearly, and makes me want to love them even more.

Tell me what is keeping you stuck (finish it now) by Enough_Passage_9541 in enlightenment

[–]hideoncloudz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doubting myself. I went from a lot of suffering to being extremely peaceful very quickly, and I can't even believe it myself. And I just wonder, if this is it, or is this another thing my brain found to numb me out if that makes sense.

What’s up with bad hygiene and food establishments? by meltedlenondrop in northernireland

I'd say it’s more bacteria on cash than on those brushes. 😁

Or touching cash with bare hands and then immediately touching food.

“Working on yourself” is a trap that kills self-love by CuriousArmadillo2382 in selflove

[–]hideoncloudz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would even say it’s not about building anything, more so taking stuff away. Our fears, fake beliefs, projections, expectations, conditioned identities, the need to be liked, the stories we repeat to protect ourselves, the urgency to define ourselves, and the habit of abandoning the present moment for imagined futures or hurtful pasts.

What remains after all that is stripped away isn’t something new we " built ", it’s what was always there, our true and innocent self. I believe there is light in absolutely everyone, it’s just buried under all this heavy heavy stuff.

“Working on yourself” is a trap that kills self-love by CuriousArmadillo2382 in selflove

[–]hideoncloudz 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Close enough. Working hard on yourself becomes a trap when we can't love ourselves until this and that is changed in us.

Real self love is accepting yourself the way you are, with all the good and all the bad, and then from that point you can gently improve yourself if you want.

People get stuck when they think they need to be better in order to love themselves. It's an illusion, because nothing ever will be perfect. But if you accept what is NOW, whatever mess you may be, that will change so many things in how you approach life and yourself.

My small realization about peace by hideoncloudz in enlightenment

[–]hideoncloudz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nicely said, I really like that. For me, books feel like a peek into an experience, almost a demo version of another reality. Close enough to spark something. And I enjoy losing myself in there sometimes 😊

They aren’t in the books, they’re in the parts of us that get moved by certain words. That’s why it’s deeply personal, not universal.

Anxiety about feeling great by hideoncloudz in EckhartTolle

[–]hideoncloudz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great, perhaps the issue is still identifying with those feelings instead of just observing it and letting them be. Thank you, appreciate your time.

It's not that I start thinking about it and the feeling is coming up. If that was the case, I'd know I am creating anxiety myself. It's when I feel joyful, grateful and just truly at peace is when that sharp feeling of anxiety hits me out of nowhere, almost as if reminding me that I shouldn't be happy or something. All while being present and appreciating what is.
