Why oh why do we continue to make the same mistakes?
I'm sure you can all relate to this question. Why do I keep touching that stove even though I know it's hot? Well my friend the answer lies within? I believe a HUGE reason we continue to make the same mistakes over and over is due to fear and acceptance. But most importantly because we lose ourselves. When we lose ourselves we tend to lose what is important, what means something to us and usually we grasp, cling and run to something that we think will make us happy. More often than not we find our "self" our soul makes us unhappy, sick or left wondering? This is a huge indication that we are off track and once we allow ourselves to come back we see that once again we erred once again we looked for happiness (believing it was something that was tangible realizing it is transparent, something inside, a knowing, a loving).
Well then why do we err again? If we already know from the first time? Because you are human, because you like everybody else have an ego. Your ego can assist you in many ways, but it can also get in your way. It can lead you to a false sense of happiness, making you believe by obtaining things, you will be happier, so you stray away from what you believe and know in search of feeding your ego, therefore your soul suffers. Find out what you are afraid of? commitment, love, yourself? and begin to believe. Our ego can make us have the coolest cars, awesome clothes and the best of material things, but it can also leave you empty inside.
When we move away from appreciation of what is in our life and look for "more" it is done with the ego. For your soul knows that in the "bliss" of appreciation, the universe continues to give you more to feed your spirit. Learn to appreciate the imperfect in yourself and others.
