Sometimes people come to your life and trigger you
Sometimes they create turbulence and test your limits
people long gone come back to your life and show you something
old feelings arise and create temporal madness

Whatever it is that pushes you out of your comfort zone
these moments force you to establish a stronger connection with yourself
they bring you closer to who you are
they mirror your worth, values and beliefs

This is one of the great things of being alive
being able to navigate storms and calm waters
they both have their beauty
they both offer you guidance to the innermost of your soul

and then you find authenticity
you find gratitude
you find happiness
you find freedom
you find what you ignored for some moments
you find the pleasure of being alive
you find thyself

Thyself is the purest and formless space within you
It’s the space that you are
it doesn’t need proof nor defense nor explanation
it’s precious and sacred
no one can take it away from you
you don’t need to show it
it is just you and you only
and it’s expansive like the strongest light in the galaxy

Thyself is the spark that lights up your lighthouse
it shows you direction with no obligation
it shows you where you belong
it signals your path in the darkness
it’s a non-negotiable because there is nothing to negotiate

And darkness will come
fear will multiply
people will come
they will fight and resist you
and they won’t see that thyself arises anyhow
no matter what they do
no matter how proud or hurt they are
thyself will come and purify the waters
thyself will come and help them heal their wounds
because they only see what’s inside them
we see only reflections
because they are thyself
thyself is everyone and everything
