The Domino Theory
Have your feelings but don’t try to figure them out. The way it feels to do something is constantly changing. It’s like your sensations are on an assembly line that never stops moving forward.
The aliveness of this kind of experience is one of the most wonderful things. Life is great any time we’re willing to let go of what we’re currently feeling in order to make space for the next experience and then the next.
The problem arises when we try to hang on to what we’re feeling. We arrest the flow of experience to judge and analyze. We want to make sure we’re having the feeling we think we’re supposed to be having.
Whenever this happens the freshness of life diminishes and we’re stuck waiting to be sure or trying to be right.
But the instant you realize that by holding on you’re just holding yourself back, Notice a little ease somewhere else and then watch how easily everything goes.
