We were raised poorly with the idea that valuable things are gained through hard work, that they are the ones we have to work for until our eyes go out of our heads, whence that true love is the one we have to go through fire and sword for. Well, absolutely not true: good things come easily. Obviously, if you can get this in your head.
Otherwise, you will continue to struggle to tie your laces and stumble over your shadow (or Jung’s). And you will live chasing the things that hurt you, the things that force you to cut pieces of yourself to get them, the things that make you walk more bent from behind and prevent you from laughing in the sun. And the simple ones, which sit in your arms and lighten your life, you will remove, consciously or less consciously, as if they were worthless.
I’m not saying that good things happen overnight or that they don’t require a constant minimum of effort. I’m just saying that when you’re convinced that good things come easily, something in the universe makes a shift to get it within reach of your brain and serve them naturally to the net. All you have to do, after receiving them, is to appreciate them at their true value and be grateful!
