It was you, it was like that. [너였구나, 그랬구나]

All possibilities emerge from a space that goes beyond specific scenarios.
 
As the protagonist of your own narrative,
Life sometimes makes you feel meaningful and fulfilled,
but at times, it also acts as a gravity
that hesitates and wavers
in the face of new challenges and endeavors
that require courage.
 
We have all gradually shed patterns
that associate certain emotions
with specific thoughts,
and we have arrived here, in the present moment.
 
The sense of existence, wide open with endless possibilities,
gradually finds some, while it suddenly comes to others.
But in firmly establishing itself in everyday life,
consistent practice, like brushing teeth, is helpful.
 
In this very moment,
become aware of the "thoughts" and "feelings"
that arise when you think of yourself.
 
Take a moment to acknowledge
the two children who have emerged, asking to be recognized.
Shame, guilt, cuteness, irritation,
bewilderment, greatness, indebtedness, empathy,
greed, desire, ambition, emptiness, sadness,
emptiness, inadequacy...
 
"It was you, it was like that."
Hold them gently.
 
Good day.

[Dear. 라이프가드너]
 
모든 가능성은 
특정 시나리오와 동일시를 벗어나는 자리에서
열립니다.
 
‘나’라고 생각하는 대하서사시가
삶을 때로, 
의미 있고 충만하게 느끼게도 하지만
어느 때는 
새롭고 용기가 필요한 도전, 시도 앞에서
머뭇거리게 하는 중력으로 
작용하기도 합니다.
 
우리 모두는
특정 감정, 
특정한 생각과 동일시하는 패턴을 
한꺼풀씩 벗으며 지금 여기에 
이르렀습니다. 
 
모든 가능성으로 활짝 열린 현존감은
누군가에겐 점진적으로,
또 누군가에겐 부지불식간에
찾아오지만
일상에서 탄탄히 자리 잡는 데에는
양치하듯 꾸준한 연습이 도움이 되지요.
 
지금 이 순간,
나를 떠올릴 때 올라오는 ‘생각’과 
‘느낌’을 알아차려봅니다.
 
알아달라고 올라온
두 아이를 가만히 알아줍니다. 
 
수치심, 죄책감, 귀여움, 짜증,
어의 없음, 대단함, 부채감, 연민,
물욕, 욕망, 욕심, 허전함, 우울감
공허함, 부족함…
 
‘너였구나, 그랬구나.’ 
 
가만히 안아줍니다.

굿데이
