For rabbits in life's headlights

This is for those arising a lot of emotion, for those feeling like they are getting lost in the emotions, or those who feel it's getting the best of them. Also, for those who are experiencing harder times in life, a disconnection, or dark night, as a reminder, that they are understood, they can keep going, and that they are capable of letting go. To remind them that liberty can be just around the corner, that they could very likely be on the verge to finally breaking through. When we have never felt the heat from the spotlight more, yet it's like no one is watching or caring. We get run over on our path sometimes, several times..but hopefully it gives some strength to know there are those who have been there, survived similar battles, and they are not alone.
I recommend to link up to the video, read it at steady pace with the music, and then watch the video afterwards, with the thoughts or tears that come in restrospect. It will hit home.

You have been treading down this path, searching, trying to understand, for quite sometime now. Your heart is heavy with emotions, your mind aching with questions and more questions of philisophical riddles that seem completely unsolvable. You look about the world, and everything feels disconnected. You have reached out, but nothing will bring any more comfort. Life is seeming more and more meaningless, confusing and noisy. You walk about, feeling like a stranger to the world you live in, an alien to the lifestyle of others, and nothing, absolutely nothing is consoling you in this moment, as your spirit yearns to be understood just one tiny bit. Just one tiny bit you ask. Yet, despite of your quiet suffered prayers, it only continues to suffer in how alone it finds itself to be. You try to survive a normal day, as you're easily poked with living a life that no longer makes any sense, because it no longer feels like a life you want to live, it no longer feels like a life you connect with. You can hardly handle work, or pay attention at school, or even simple interaction with others, meditation, any sort of engaging act is extremly difficult, for at every corner you feel that you are about to burst. You feel this is the last you can take, you are ready to surrender, give up, you only want to float off into nothingness, far far away. Others may have tried to ask you if you're ok, why you're not going out, or maybe nobody notices at all, it doesn't make a difference, because you have no answers, you have no way of expressing what is going on. All you know, is that you have gone too far down this maze, you look up from the abyss at what was once your life, you can't turn back, you're too different now,and all you can allow, is yourself to continue on. Your dizzy with confusion, but your still pushing further, there is tears in your eyes from frustration, anger in your spirit from misunderstanding, you feel pushed around by life and are at your last nerve, and you just want to scream out this despair, you want to be allowed to fall to the ground, the pain is too heavy, the sorrow to deep. Do it. Allow yourself to do this very thing your yearn. Allow yourself to accept all this burden and finally in whatever emotion it arises, for once and for all, let it go. Let it go. Burst, let your heart burst, let your body ache, and cry until you are empty. Scream, cry out that pain. Face it. It's going to be ok. When you are done, lay in silence, feel it all lifting away, recognize that you have survived a battle, and have cleared path for truth, by facing yourself with courage, and no hesitation. Have absolutely no hesitation in letting go. Next time around..you'll be more ready. Next time around, you'll be stronger, wiser, and more quiet. Keep going until there is nothing in the way, there is nothing to throw you around, because you know where control is, you know where liberty lies, and nothing can entrap you, because you will no longer allow it. You're embracing all, and letting all go. Don't ever stop letting go.

thanks for the post … I have been there, and may be again. Its our purpose here in life to experience it all, the up, down, sad and lonely too. I have found myself lonely in a crowd of people and surrounded by love in a room alone.
they key is to know… who is aware and watching all of this happen
peace…. mike
