Who’s Making Sense?

  • Posted by Jamie|

Sometimes I think I’m going crazy. I suppose following my heart does seem like that because it just makes no sense at times.

This has been the biggest challenge. My heart feels one thing. Then, a moment later, in comes this voice of reason racing to try to make sense of it all. Does this happen to you?

I know I’m not the only one. I’m sure we are all having those sorts of conversations with ourselves.

I was once best friends with that voice. It used to rule my decision making. That was until I realized that my decision making was happening from a place other than what I felt, my thinking. When its me thinking, my thoughts are always going to be limiting. That’s what my mind is for: working things out according to what’s possible.

Unless I let the feeling use my mind rather than my mind use me. It was then a conscious choice to follow the feeling.

This is where I thought I was going crazy. That feeling uses zero logic. It doesn’t care for reason or what meaning I give to the things or the circumstances in my life. So, I would constantly have to ask myself: Have I lost it?

The answer that came eventually was: Yes! I’ve lost it.

What had I lost?

The control my best friend once had over me, my mind, aka the ego. In following my heart, I started to feel more complete. That voice seemed to become less relevant. I wasn’t scared to lose something, make a wrong choice, or head in the wrong direction.

I was finding myself more in the here and now, this present moment. It felt like, in this space, I already had everything I ever wanted.

Needing to make sense of things felt like it would take me out of this moment. It’s like I was trying to create a story from something that wasn’t real.

So, I stopped trying to make sense and just trusted what I sensed in each moment without further thought. Sounds very illogical… But do you want to trust the thinking or what you feel?

I’d love to hear below in the comments if you, too, feel a little crazy like me at times… Do you find yourself following the feeling wholeheartedly?

    Indeed!!! And even people around you will back it up by telling you how crazy you are. But I'm discovering that reasoning and logic land me in "safe" places, places where I think I "should" be. And this often doesn't feel good. We must learn to trust our hearts.

  2. Great realisation Kate! Keep trusting and following the feeling that moves through your heart <3
