# Narrative of Sickness
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reminding yourself that you need to get better is perpetuating the narrative of sickness.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Existence is change, inherently, inevitably. Embracing life is embracing change. Things in this world will change without warning. Things we consider safe and stable today will vanish tomorrow.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Accept this as a fact of life.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To love is to lose in equal measure. To lose is to love in turn. Every journey upwards has its regressions downwards.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fully embracing all that you are is the best way to bring this about, for you can be present to what happens and help it change through your intent.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It may sound like a subtle distinction between getting better from sickness and just changing but it's really all the difference. A plant is not sick just because it later grows into a bigger tree. Change is just simply what happens, and it can be recognized and embraced in order to fully, progressively align the self with whatever intent or goal.
