Do we pay attention to the people in our lives and the events we encounter? Or do we just say 'why did this happen to me' in the complacency of our old thought patterns? Do we pay attention to our conversations with people, our every sentence, our every thought and emotion, and what every event reveals within us? Or do we just go through it without noticing, perceiving it as the ordinariness of life? Offended, in pain, resentful, angry, rebellious. Do we see ourselves as a victim of life, a target for others? If we are a victim of life, if events happen to us and we have no way of intervening, if those around us are always doing something to us, know that the ropes are definitely not in our hands. Our life is a series of automatic reactions. It is very important to pay attention in order to get out of this automatic, robot life. Pay attention to what? Our encounters. Our encounters that will tell us about us, enable us to discover ourselves, show us our automatic reactions, resentments, expectations, awareness, and how we wear the role of victim without questioning. Our encounters with events and people. . Our encounters will be a mirror for us.
Let's realize our expectation of support in the sentence "I don't need support!" that comes out of our mouth when we respond with disappointment to our partner who does not take us seriously in the work we do to express ourselves. Let's realize how this expectation is reflected in our environment in order to realize what we want. Let's realize that it makes us feel dependent and how we cannot afford to proceed on our own on the path we have chosen to just be ourselves and exist. Let's pay attention and think about it. No event, no word should be taken as ordinary. Dig it. Dig even deeper. Why did we say that? Why did we feel humiliated, offended, guilty... by his look? Let's pay attention especially to our automatic reactions. They come from very deep. We may not notice it at that moment, but it is necessary to go over it later. These are the small switches of the big exits. Let's not forget that we all experience similar things, but the dimensions of our reactions are different because each individual is (human)special in himself.
