Everyday Ways You Can Lose Yourself To Find Yourself

. Well, after it’s stuck in my head, I’m quiet for a good chunk of time because I’d caught a train of thought headed toward a reasonable theory regarding the origin of said phrase. I mean, who ever claimed beating the dead horse was such an awful thing to do anyways? I suppose beating anything deceased is a bit counterproductive, so there you go, the phrase has sense. Just recently I heard a phrase that not only caught my imagination, but also my attention. The saying is lose yourself; a common phrase used to express a kind of passion for a performance, or action, or simply some kind of everyday trance. My mind immediately found meditation. It was as if the train to this thought had finally arrived at the station where I’d been waiting my entire life.

The place I know of well and have found on my own, without the help of a conductor who lead the way. This enlightened way-of-life can never be erased. After finding meditation, I have realized the world around me will always be on the outside and will simply be something I must compromise with. If I am happy I can choose to let the world meet me on my own time in my own state-of-mind. A peaceful state-of-mind where exterior realities are segregated from the conscious reality made of perception.

Meditating is not something to be afraid of, in fact, it’s likely you meditate on your own almost everyday. Meditation simply helps you connect with the most naturally human pieces of your existence. A topic of understanding that has somehow been lost in the education systems of today. Meditation is a very important concept for everyone to understand because it is the absolute direction toward personal discovery. An enlightenment incomparable to any physical discovery on Earth. A discovery of mind, body and soul. Take these baby steps to quiet the part of you who is confined to normality. Lose yourself so the true you will shine through. (Something to keep in mind: I’ve found constant Facebook activity to be a sprint in the opposite direction. A concern for thousands of other lives on a computer screen leaves little to no room for personal discovery. Think about it...) .
