Building awareness is painful. It awakens you from a deep slumber you have been indulging in triggered by early conditioning. It starts at home when the belief systems of elders is superimposed on your innocent childlike minds. And you take them as the gospel truth. The “respect worthy “elders mould you, give you their identity, expect you to fulfil their unfulfilled desires and expect you to keep up their image in society. Whatever it takes away from you it does not matter.
Later, with awareness building in
you, you now notice that you have to unlearn so many things you never doubted
before.
That new awareness will change
you and change the environment around you too. You will have to step out of
your comfort zone and face new challenges, connect with people who are like you
are now, leave many past memories and people who don’t work in your life
anymore, to move onto new pastures.
You know now why repeated patterns
appear! When you are not ready to face the pain of that new awareness. When you
are unable to have the courage. When the “known “engulfs you because the untraveled
path brings fear of the unknown. So, you do the comfortable things and get the
same results. Nothing new / inspiring/ challenging appears in life till the
end. Something to think about.
