Here, life skills trainer, John Christian, explains how people are victims of their own emotional mistakes. This, John puts down to the fact that we have (culturally) been given a belief that says “other people are responsible for my emotions, and not me”. He continues; “I’ve looked at this in myself over many years now. Happiness is a choice. Sadness is a choice”.
In this epic and deep piece of writing, John Christian delves into the reality beyond what the mind or intellect perceives, to the underlying nature of self – and with it a call to mankind for the next level of self-knoweldge.
When I am close to nature it’s as if my whole being, mind, body and soul finds a renewed lease of life, it is such a deeply subtle yet profound experience that it is beyond the reach of words to explain. During and after such experiences I am lead to wonder WHY on earth we would even want to cut ourselves off from our natural way of being in exchange for what amounts to purely selling our souls for a man made concepts of happiness?
