Fuji x100f / The Streets of Our Kaka'ako
If it’s all One, then awakening is really just learning to love more deeply what is truly reflecting back.
I was exposed to the idea that life is one giant mirror nearly two decades ago. As I write and look at what’s going on professionally, like the ahupua'a as a model of sustainability, I realize now that this is one of those teachings that is built into the foundation of my life.
It’s kind of wild having such an array of experience and seeing it fit together. Like continuing to build and expand my jiu-jitsu game, all the lessons and learnings of life weave together intricately in helping me to shine the mirror.
The more we learn to love and accept ourselves as we are, wherever we are in the Here + Now, the easier it is to look at the world and find love and acceptance in the picture, however it is reflected by.
To put it another way, “Love thy neighbor as ye love thyself” whether that’s good, not-so, and/or otherwise, because guess what?
In the realm of consciousness, it’s all connected/you as above, Soul below.Soul choose, Fuck You, Respectfully 🙃
And even more, Soul Much Love 🤙
