Where is our potential? What are we busy doing? Is this really the best that we are and can be? Are we even seeing our reality? Like, really seeing. How 'open' are our eyes really? We may think we 'see', but maybe we should ask ourselves what it is we don't see. Ask yourself what it is you don't see, and you will start REALLY seeing. Cause there is much that we don't see. Much that we even deliberately choose not to see. About ourselves, about reality. We are masters at creating 'blind spots'. Masters at being blind with our eyes open. At making sure we will never see, other than the things we want to see. Like a fish in a fish-bowl. All that exists is what's inside the fish-bowl, and everything outside of that is just a blur. And just like the fish can't escape it's bowl, we've become so good at only seeing our own 'bowl' that the chances of us escaping it and getting into 'actual reality' are almost non-existent. But even that fish-bowl, of our own construction, is not who we really are. We know we've lost ourselves somehow. Like there's 'something' we're missing. And we're out here in the world in a way looking for ourselves. Like we're trying to 'find Nemo', but only seeing Nome. And not even asking ourselves, 'what would it really take for me to see myself?' Because part of us knows that we probably wouldn't want to start seeing. But then that's the choice we have to make. Am I going to jump out of this fish bowl and possibly face some uncomfortable things, or am I going to continue pretending that I'm trying to find myself while I'm actually quite happy 'not finding Nemo'?
