My mom called me last night depressed i still do not know why she was depressed. She told me she was worried about moving to the country, selling there home, buying a new one etc. I asked her a simple question........Why, then she stopped and said she didn't know why.
Just a tid bit of info:
(It has always been my parents dream to live on an acreage, my dad bought my mom a GPS system so she wouldn't get lost, and my parents are moving because my dad got a large promotion, so that my mom really wont have to work unless she wants to( part time in a green house or something) )
So my mom preceded to thank me stating that she felt better and didn't know whey she was depressed. I know many people like this. My friend J he stated he thrives on his anxiety and enjoys feeling uncomfortable in his own skin. I asked him why and he stated that he did not know. Why do people insist on thriving on the negative?
Eckart Tolle states In the power of now that negativity is a sign of being unconscious and that it can take a toll on you in the future and it can cause a downward spiral and you can not EVER become enlightened living in the unconscious. Unconsciousness is caused by dwelling what happened in the past (bad things, good things etc) or dwelling on the future.
Isn't that what we are all here to do become enlightened? Otherwise what are we here for?
