To you it feels like a river that is moving swiftly toward who you really are and taking you along with it, whether you really wanna go or not.
And do you know what negative emotion is? Negative emotion is the stream of your expansion taking you, and you not going willingly. That's what negative emotion is. "But But But But But," you say, as you try to row against the current. "BUT. BUT. BUT."
And as you defend and justify, as you talk about what you don't want, "I don't have enough money, I don't have enough money, they don't bring my breakfast, nobody loves me ...." [audience soft laughter] As you beat those drums, those drums of resentment, or those drums of not-enoughness, those drums of lack, those drums of lack: "I don't have enough money, I don't have enough time, I don't have enough love, I don't have enough respect, I don't have enough, I don't have enough, I don't have enough..." As you beat those drums you hold yourself against this current.
But you're going. You're just not going willingly ...
Why not just go with the flow?
