YOU FEEL THE CHAOS

MAY 1, 2023

We all have traits that make us unique. We can be more than what people see in us, if we’re willing to walk our own path and live the experiences that come our way. We’ll make decisions, we’ll learn new things, we’ll get hurt and we’ll even lose part of who we are… but we can always rebuild ourselves to transform our being and discover the purpose that will make us shine brightest under the sun.

  1. You accept. You know not everything will be pleasant, but you accept; what’s more, you know you won’t like many parts. You accept. With more certainty than argument, you accept. It begins. And you already feel the weight of your decision, you experience that feeling you knew was coming but dismissed because you trusted it was worth it. You don’t really want it, but you accept. And you arrive. The costs keep being confirmed, the prices keep getting higher; you think “it’s useless to close the door if the cold escapes from the inside out”. Closer. Closer! But having you close is dangerous; feeling each other should be warmth, but the cold is inside, it doesn’t work. Closer. You accept. It begins. You arrive and you have no choice; without you it doesn’t work. Closer. Do I lean on you or crush you?

  2. You trust. There really is no other option; alone it doesn’t work. You surrender. And although you knew it was hard, you start shyly, trying to go gently toward a destination where either you surrender or you’d better not come. You act. It hardly matters anymore whether you lean or crush; you act. You trust, you surrender, you act; you’ve left shyness behind and, with all the care you can, you go. You hold. And you also let yourself be held.

  3. You don’t know. You don’t have access to all the information, to all the answers; you hear but can’t see; everything happens but nothing happens to you. Pain. The wait is long, you feel the chaos, the confusion, you don’t understand, the pain distracts you. You endure. Things move forward; in a false rest, everything keeps moving forward. You don’t know, it hurts, you endure… and it moves forward.

  4. Simple. You thought you could let go, that you had mastered it, that it would be simple, but no. New. What you thought you knew how to do no longer works. You had only gotten used to another kind of complexity, not to complexity as a whole. A new challenge that was anything but simple. Close, but not in chaos, holding, but gently, the cold still from within. You finished and you made it in the end.

  5. You accept, it begins, you arrive, you trust, you surrender, you act, you hold, you don’t know, it hurts, you endure, you move forward, the simple, the new, you finish: ACHIEVED. Maybe it sounds like life to you, but it’s just a session with Pralad.

Individual, figure, body, flesh: on its own it is what it is; it has strength, power, a name and a reason to be.

What happens if each of these forces comes together?

Going from being one, to a collective, to a mass, a heap of flesh ready to create, ready to destroy, bodies being born, bodies that suffer and pass away.
