We shop.
We eat too much chocolate.
We drink.
We do drugs.
We scroll through social media.
We gossip, and we judge.
We control.
We abandon.
We lose or gain too much weight.
We make lots of money.
We renounce money.
We look to friends and lovers to fill the gaping hole.
We seek new ones because the existing ones stop measuring up.
We seek to feel more alive by doing things we wouldn’t do if we actually felt more alive.
At the end, these only serve to deplete our energy and our self-worth. Only to find out at the end, when we take a good look at what we’ve really got and who we really are, we are already whole. We just didn’t believe it.
