I've been reading "The Book of Martial Power" by Steven Pearlman.
It touched on something that's been being discussed in my circle for the past few days.
Its the last two paragraphs that really speak on that we are who we are
and our charge is to chip away everything that is not true for us.
That is how we can become who we want/are meant to be.
When I was 21 I began to let go of what I was familiar with and question what and how I felt about everything. I needed to know if they were true feelings or conditioning.
The biggest thing I've gained so far is greater compassion.
It continues to be an incredible journey.
