What you’ve yet to own, owns you.
Doing or not doing won’t correct what needs correcting.
We each create exactly what we’re inevitably here to dissolve.
It’s the inability to withstand the intense aliveness of being that drives the impulse to dilute or run from it, just as the inability to withstand it drives the impulse to seek that same jolt of aliveness through superficial means.
There is a purity, an innocence, and a very clean desire at the heart of every addiction / compulsion.
If the pain runs deep, the power does, too. Most fear the latter, so they settle on the former.
When you’ve deviated from the truth and natural movements of your being (a complete betrayal to your system), the only way to live with that internal split is to distract yourself with self-created 'issues’ that would not exist (and ultimately don't) had you remained in your power (your natural state) in the first place.
The addiction itself is not the issue. What’s sourcing the pattern of addiction IS. And even that is not an issue.
It’s no one’s job to keep you stable. It’s your job to contend with your own instability.
You are the only remedy for your suffering.
You created X when you disowned the truth. When you own the truth, X disappears.
You couldn’t end up with an ‘addict’ unless you were also an ‘addict’ yourself.
Stop leaving here to go ‘there’ and the ‘problem’ dissolves.
Addiction is what you choose in lieu of owning and applying your power.
It hurts so you can learn how to not do that shit that hurts you.
What's a little more poison when you're already sick?
Every descent reaps more gold.
The only ‘tool’ you actually need is custom-built into each moment.
You don’t actually want to be saved. You want to be the Master of yourself and the domain that’s housed by you.
You ‘struggle’ where you’ve yet to own and apply your power.
Stop buying into your own bullshit and you’ll be just fine.
One must abandon themselves in the attempt to fill through external means what can only be satisfied internally through learning how to not self-abandon in the first place.
Once upon a time, I fed myself to a wolf. I knew he was a wolf. And I wanted to be devoured.
Your willingness and capacity to suffer with and for another, is not love (for yourself or the other).
You only need to ‘cope’ when you choose to leave home.
Regardless of the ‘issue’, it’s about your relationship to power.
You only feel the need to ‘escape’ when you’re existing unnaturally.
Addiction is the perfect way to ineffectively manage the discomfort of an inner deviation.
Your ‘issues’ are adaptations you created yourself, in lieu of being you.
