You can’t ‘do’ life

You can’t ‘do’ life.⁣
You can only be it.⁣
You already ARE it.⁣
It’s only conditioning telling you otherwise.⁣
Telling you that you can manage,⁣
control,⁣
influence,⁣
make,⁣
DO things.⁣
⁣
You can’t.⁣
What you think of as ‘you’ has no control.⁣
(Even though at times, it seems that way.)⁣
It doesn’t do a thing.⁣
(Even though actions happen.)⁣
It doesn’t make decisions.⁣
(Even though choices are made.)⁣
⁣
There’s no ‘you’ doing any of it.⁣
⁣
And still—⁣
you think you choose.⁣
You plan.⁣
You weigh.⁣
You ask your body,⁣
pull a card,⁣
feel into the yes.⁣
⁣
And then the thing just happens.⁣
You send the message.⁣
You cancel the call.⁣
You change your mind.⁣
⁣
Not because 𝘺𝘰𝘶 made it happen.⁣
But because it moved.⁣
⁣
You didn’t choose the thought.⁣
You didn’t summon the impulse.⁣
You didn’t make the decision.⁣
⁣
It was already happening—⁣
before you caught up to it.⁣
⁣
There was never a moment of control.⁣
Just movement.⁣
And a story wrapped around it.⁣
⁣
Life moved.⁣
And put your name on it.⁣
