Sometimes life surprises the absolute fvck out of you
Was in Rockport, MA (a busy town in the U.S.)
Driving with my mom, and 2 sisters
I let someone have a parking spot
My family lost their minds (yelling at me)
Within 5 seconds I parallel parked into a new spot
This spot naturally opened up after I gave up the other spot
I was just beyond words how aggressive my family was in relation to 'fighting' for the first spot
But naturally the universe brought me a new spot
Life is not about me VS. you
Life is not about zero sum games
Now I know the city can bring out aggressive behavior
As when humans and animals are cramped, we tend to be violent
But maybe we can begin to look at how we move, how we speak, how we treat others
Maybe we can match our technological advancement in terms of human intelligence and connection
We have such amazing creations, but humans are still so self-centered, selfish and reactionary in today's age
It's time for each of us to do the work, to truly lead by example, to carry ourselves in alignment every living moment
To let compassion be born within our hearts
To realize that we are all one
To let that insight guide you continuously
