Retirement
I am officially announcing my retirement.
I am retiring from the life of misery I have lived. Retiring from chasing happiness. Retiring from the need for things to be a certain way. Retiring from suffering.
A life spent searching for a missing ingredient or missing piece is no life at all.
I am already complete. I have what I need.
Peace doesn't come from somewhere "out there". It comes from within. It is obscured by negativity and suffering at times, but it gets easier to reach with practice. The process of peeling back layers until the bright core beneath is revealed isn't a simple one, but it is infinitely rewarding.
I want to be in the world but not of it.
I have suffered enough. I can learn to find peace in the midst of my current circumstances. There is no external change that will bring it to me. There is only a choice, and I can make it. Once made, there is no external force that can take it from me.
I am excited for my new, retired life. I surrender my pain in exchange for joy. I sacrifice the need to control and exchange it for the wonder of allowing things to simply be what they are.
My life can still be what it has always been.
It is the emotional world within that will no longer be the same.
And that, I think, will be a welcome relief.
