Are you #living in the #shallows of #superficial#praiseand #rewards? The things that are #easy to #attain often come with #huge#hidden#costs. Instead, you can #digdeeper and #reachhigher.

forgiveness
#Forgiveness is a state of #being, not an #action. #Forgiving and #forgiven. Not #denial, but also no longer needing a certain #pain or #judgment#anymore. #Releasing#verdicts that were never yours to give. Releasing #stories that don’t and didn’t need to be your #story. After forgiveness comes #freedom: #norestrictions on #love, #courage, #power, or #becoming. Freedom from being #triggered, freedom from #repetition, and freedom from #projection.

inaction
#Sometimes#caught between #acedia and #restorative#contemplation – hard to #recognize – hard to #tell the #difference when it’s hard to see #what to tell #yourself – #motivation– #viacontemplativa
resurrection
#Easter – #resurrection is the prospect of #renewal. #Eternal and #ever #newness. Even when our bubble of experienced #existence #collapses #down to #torment, #agony, and an eventual #tomb, we can #lookback at #ourselves, from a point of #rebirth when we #appear again, and from which it can be said ”non est hic.” #nonesthic – #heisnotthere – #rebirth
renunciation
This year for #Lent I gave up #pessimism and #inaction. In #shifting#consciousness from #renunciationto #resurrection – #viacrucis – it is this – to #commit to be a #man of #better#ideas and #words, to #bring better ideas and words into this #world, to make the world a better place of better ideas and words that lead to better #actions.
