003_What If You Didn't Care?

In this episode, we explore how our belief in the meaning we've given concepts creates what we call problems and ask the question, "what if we didn't care?" Would we still have a problem? Would a problem still exist? 
What is - is just what is. It is just our resistance to it - our belief it should be different than it is or that something needs fixing, that makes it a problem. 

But what happens when we let go of the concept and look directly into the actuality of what's happening? We might find an innate okay-ness - the everpresent aliveness of being - of life itself, which is always enough. It's LOVE, itself. living in, through, and as us and everything. We find a natural faith in ourselves as a part of the aliveness of what's happening.

We give everything all the meaning it has for us - can we open to just what is without assigning meaning?
Life is pure vulnerability - can we feel into the pulse of life just as it, this moment, and let go of the need to make an identity out of what's happening and what it means about me?

Whenever we feel a glitch, or some resistance to what is, rather than define it as a problem and react to the compulsion to fix it, can we see that glitch as an inner zen-bell inviting us to turn within and feel into the pulse of life and maybe even feel the stillness in which the movement arises? 

We want to be happy but are we willing to let go of our story of unhappiness - of the compulsion to fix the perceived problem?
The quick flip-switch is to ask, "what if I didn't care?" Then let it go. We can be with the actuality of what is and feel into the aliveness that is life itself. A problem is only a problem if we make it so.
