Seeking fulfillment outside of yourself is a lively game, that has many of us captured in it’s allure for the majority of our time. We seek fulfillment in our work, defining and inflating the sense of self with our accomplishments. We look for it in physical pleasure, through technology, games, and movies. Sometimes we partake in over indulgences with food, drink, and other vices because it helps to numb the emptiness we feel. We associate this emptiness with an outside need. We need other people and things to fill it up or distract us from this void we feel inside. There are so many distractions that we see as normal in our culture.
There is nothing outside of you that can satisfy you indefinitely. You will grow bored with what you have and you will seek more or you will seek different.
Everything you need to feel fulfilled is inside of you. It’s hidden under the layers of distractions that have become the standard in your life. A quiet space with dedicated focus on deep breathing and connecting to your inner self will lead you to a greater contentment and peacefulness than anything you will find outside of yourself.
The love, the sense of wholeness, the feelings of contentment are all waiting there for you to uncover…
