The Social Matrix
I think we are all stuck in the social matrix unless we are off sitting under a tree meditating. The social matrix is HUGE...
Every time we seek external validation. Every time we live out of fear-based frames. Every we time we judge another person. Every time we stop loving ourselves. Every time we place our self-limiting beliefs in the way of getting what we truly want.
In every day interactions I can see. And I'm not excluding myself from this matrix.
The world really is our mirror. It's like we don't even really see the world. We see everything that has made it through our perceptual filters. And these filters, our belief system, could be based on premises that aren't even real. Anytime we get defensive or hurt about something, it really is showing us a piece of ourself and if we can let go of our ego for a second and learn the lesson - we'd live much more fulfilling lives.
I sometimes forget that when people judge me, they are really judging themselves. Or when people hate me, they truly do not like themselves. The best I can do is have compassion for these people. If these people make me upset I know that they remind me a little of myself.
That sometimes I may judge people, or dislike other people. But I guess this serves as a good reminder for right now just to let go and love. It's way more satisfying then being pissed off like the miserable people who upset me in the first place.
I definitely have the power to decide what I want to feel, or how I'd like to react. A perfect example of this is when I get all emotional and tell my boyfriend, "You hurt my feelings!" He looks at me, with his big open heart, and says full of compassion, "I did not make you feel anything that you did not deep down want to feel."
When I am loving myself, I'm loving others. When I'm judgeless, I do not judge myself. When I accept others fully as they are, I accept myself fully as it is.
Everyday is full of lessons and I'm pretty grateful for them.
