A Glimpse Of Your True
Nature...By: Lance

I believe that every moment of
existence holds within it, somewhere, a key to your true nature. So as you read this article, do so as if
this could be
your key, and let’s see which doors it opens within you.
There is a simple fact of nature that I would like you to consider – YOU ARE ALREADY
PERFECT!
All of nature, or existence, or
reality, or whatever you prefer to call it, is already
perfect.
There is nothing outside of you that you need to find to complete you. You are already
complete.
There is nothing you need to achieve. There is
nothing
you need to get, do or become.
Everything
you need to “be you” is already within you. You are perfect, as is all other
creation.
A rock is a rock. It doesn’t try to be anything other than
itself. It does not look elsewhere for its identity. It just is, and it’s
perfect.
A tree does not try to be something it’s not. It’s a
tree. And it spends its time just being. Without struggle, it is what it is-
perfect.
I have a cat named Schrody. Now Schrody lives an
incredibly free life, because he simply is who he is. He spends his time just
being Schrody. And he does it perfectly.
There is not one
example in nature, living or non-living, which is not already perfect.
Including
YOU! You are perfect right now- exactly
how you
are meant to be.
If you were meant to be something or someone
else, then
you would be.
If you were meant to have something else,
then you
would have it.
If you were meant to achieve something,
then you
would have achieved it.
You are already perfect, just
as you
are.
So why don’t you feel perfect? Why are you not happy? Why are you looking outside of yourself for that something else
which will complete you?
Perhaps because
you falsely believe you should be something else?
Something other than what you truly are. You are refusing to accept reality. You
fight what is, and that’s a fight you can never win. You believe you should be richer. Or have a
better job. Or a different relationship.
These
things are just
your external environment. And if you wish to change them, you can certainly do it. The
circumstances
you live with now are a result of your choices so far, and you can create a new life for the
future by choosing to make changes in your
life, and taking appropriate action.
If that
is
your desire, you can change your finances. You can change your career. You can improve your relationships. And making
these changes will certainly make your life different. However, they
cannot make YOU better. It’s
impossible
to improve on perfection.
Personal development and
growth does not improve you. It simply expands your awareness of the truth-
that you
are already perfect.
Until you recognize this fact, you will continue in your suffering. Happiness cannot be
found outside
you. Happiness comes from within, when you give up the illusion, and just
love
yourself unconditionally.
So! How about no more thinking,
“I should be this…”, or “I should have that.” How about thinking, “I am exactly
who I am, and no-one could do a more perfect job at it than me.”
Be
happy being who
you are.
