@AbhayPrasanna @AskYatharth This is a great point. I do feel a faint sense of @AskYatharth trying to... convince himself and/or us he's going to be better in future? When I've done this, it's usually been in denial of the point @AbhayPrasanna is making right here. Hoping I can fix it right now somehow.
@AskYatharth @Malcolm_Ocean It not only sucks but also every possible excuse that can be made not to, will be. What helps me is remembering that while my mind is fantastic at optimally moving within a frame, the frame is moving within The Frame, which can only be met in every moment. https://t.co/2O4gGbGcIl
@AskYatharth @Malcolm_Ocean Mind is like: bro that's as lot of moments to be blissing out in the Heart space in.And I'm like: bro you merely adopted the Heart, I was born in it. molded by it. https://t.co/mqCXhAbmZs
@AbhayPrasanna @Malcolm_Ocean awwwwww reminds me a lot of this we /are/ the heartspace not moving into it in some sense, that’s who we already always were, and now we’re welcoming the mind https://t.co/kmTGHrnroY
⚠️ Common Trap with IFS, parts work, etc. It’s sooo easy to get into the mode of “I’m going to let my inner kids play.” “My inner child wants this!” Noo! Go let *yourself* play! You want this! Fuck what the child wants. What do you want? You are the child.
it started with noticing a lot of my recent tweets felt “icky” they felt compulsive, not emotional aggressive, but not in a balanced, grounded way https://t.co/m2CUveaFly
leaning more into it, a lot had to do with how i’d be seen there was a vibe i was going for. i know what it is. i really do love it and it made me sad, scared—panicked, even—that i’d messed up, and people would confuse the “wholesome, but relentless” vibe with plain aggressive https://t.co/1SFzTgYCQP
there’s a noticing and relaxing as i come into touch with wow, how important this really is to me it really does matter the vibe i’m going for, and it’s important to me when it feels like i messed up https://t.co/qxqBIv2TEC
i’m still “stuck” — i don’t know whether to - delete everything that feels ick, or - move forward with my life but the stuckness makes sense. this is important. https://t.co/OcoHqbsQdn
sidenote: can we appreciate how great of a show Avatar is?? Uncle Iroh is still one of my heroes to this day, and he is for so many others https://t.co/WhnXlWBlzW
literally all three Kegan transitions, in one show, each shown with care and respect https://t.co/LhVAzvr0lP
Uncle Iroh appreciation tea break https://t.co/vOX6twCzRk
ok back to the thread something shifts as Malcolm points out there’s not much i can do at this point the bad 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘥 there’s not much i can do at this point it’s not about doing something, it was about being with what already was https://t.co/CVsfc3kWNf https://t.co/oP5u6goY4p
“im sad to be with what is” i can be hurt i was hurt by this discourse not “by someone,” not that anyone did anything wrong but a wrong happened, and i was causally involved with it https://t.co/UbDdFyh6kI
what now? there’s two responses to when we fuck up and play the wrong chord - you go back and start the piece again - you play a different note that /makes the chord right/ https://t.co/vcMWf0ZR0R
i can’t fix the past even playing the right notes to make the past consonant /doesn't fix the past/ but it is what there is to do https://t.co/lt2UkYLMa4
@visakanv Herbie Hancock describing a similar realization he had early on playing with Miles Davis, and "right in the middle of Miles Davis' solo, I played the wrong chord. Sounded like a big mistake! ...and Miles paused for a second... then he played some notes that made my chord right." https://t.co/NsDiTfdH5g
