"We don't realize that, somewhere within us all, there does exist a supreme self who is eternally at peace." ~ Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)
I just read this on the net, (I have not read this book though)and it brought back some memories:
When I was a teenager and younger, and didn't know any spiritual terms/words for this supreme self she is referring to - I used to call it "in the middle of myself". I saw it as a ball of bright light within, like an internal sun, and it was all peace and harmony no matter what was going on in my life, and on the surface with my human emotions. One part of me felt all kinds of fears, sadness, dispair etc, but this inner sun was always shining, being harmonious, peaceful and totally at ease with everything. Well, it still is :)
Sometimes it confused me feeling "light & shadow" all at once, but it was as it was.
I just felt like writing about it. Maybe others can relate?
I salute your internal sun,
Aina
