The Impasse - A Diary of Scarcity and Soul

  December 10th. Or perhaps it is the 11th. Time has lost its linear rhythm since the days merged into one long, gray anticipation. The light today falls obliquely through the window, illuminating the dust motes that dance in the silence—the only motion in this room, which is simultaneously a sanctuary and a prison. I write this not to complain, but to comprehend. To map this desert we find ourselves in. The words we hear every day – impasse, inflation, unemployment, poverty, low standard, scarcity, deprivation, loneliness – sound like dry, technical terms in the news, but here, in my inner world, they have flesh, they have the weight of a stone laid upon the chest at night. I sit opposite myself in this twilight of the spirit. What we call a "crisis" is, in fact, a deep, unsettling psychoanalytic pause imposed upon us by reality; the moment when the external supports of the ego – career, financial security, social status – crumble to reveal the fragile construction beneath...

I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead

 "I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead." These words speak to a powerful shift in mindset, from one of passive searching to active creation.

When we are searching for something outside of ourselves, whether it be #love, #happiness, #success, or even #enlightenment, we can feel as if we are constantly chasing after something that is just out of reach. We may find ourselves feeling #frustrated, #disappointed, and even #hopeless.

But what if we could turn that search inward, and realize that we have the #power to create the very thing we are seeking? What if we could become the light we have been searching for?

This #shiftinperspective requires a #willingness to take #responsibility for our own lives and our own happiness. It requires us to stop looking for #externalvalidation or #approval and instead to cultivate a deep sense of #selfworth and #selflove.

When we become the #light, we radiate positivity, love, and #compassion. We #inspire others to do the same and create a ripple effect of positivity in the world. By choosing to embody the qualities we wish to see in the world, we become a force for #change and #transformation.

So, if you find yourself feeling lost or searching for something outside of yourself, remember that the light you seek is within you. It is up to you to cultivate it, nurture it, and share it with the world. Choose to become the light and watch as your life and the world around you transforms.
