Day 251 – Staying Committed, IV

When and as I see myself stepping into the back-chat where, within and as my own mind, I make comparisons, judgments, and justifications, like ‘I need something more’, ‘I am bored’, ‘I just want to smoke one hit so I can relax and enjoy myself’, ‘I cannot just remain here without at least smoking one little hit’, ‘there is no difference between being here at this social gathering / party and to just being at work, so long as I am not at least having a drink or smoke something’, ‘every one else gets to smoke and drink and have fun, why can’t I’, ‘what’s that harm in just a little hit?’, ‘I wish I didn’t know the things that I know and thus there would be nothing holding me back from enjoying myself and being stoned’, ‘they, in their ignorance to how physical reality really works, get to have all the fun and smoke weed and drink not realizing how they are fucking themselves and everyone else in doing so.  I wish I could be like them in this one night, and just not know the difference’, ‘this can’t just be all there is to being a physical being in one’s experience of self.  It is just too plain, too boring, too monotonous.  I must be able to at least have this one hit of weed to relax, to enjoy myself, and to mix it up a bit and change my experience of myself to make like interesting,’ – I stop, and I breathe.  I see, realize, and understand that in my participation in this, I am breaking down my wall of resistance to smoking weed, brick by brick, thought by thought, comparison by comparison, judgment by judgment until the wall of resistance finally crumbles and I give myself permission to follow the energy experience of being high that I so desire.  Within this, I forgive myself that I have not allowed myself to see, realize, and understand that my stopping of smoking weed was always just merely an energetic experience of resistance and attempted self-control, but was never a living physical reality wherein I really stopped due to the point that I fully realized that smoking weed has nothing to offer me, in and as the physical and thus have no natural use for it; because if this were so, I would not have to resist or use self-control in the first place.  Thus, I do not accept and allow myself to participate in this back-chat.  Thus, I commit myself to stopping my participation in this back-chat as soon as I see it arise within and as my mind, by deleting it immediately, and taking a breath in and thus directing my awareness to my breath and my physical body and thus do not allow my mind to move until I am stable within the breath because I see, realize, and understand that the back-chat, and my participation in it, is what eventually leads me to physical action, like finally taking that hit of weed.  If the back-chat comes up again, I find that I cannot stop it, I direct myself to say out-load in a stern directive voice as if speaking to a child, or loudly in my mind’s voice if others are around:  ‘NO, I STOP.  I DO NOT ACCEPT AND ALLOW THIS’.   Then I direct myself to remind myself that I am here.  I am a physical being where I am always whole and complete and stable as my natural condition and thus feeling bored and desiring experiences to alleviate boredom are all figments of my mind as energy and thus are not who I really am – thus I commit myself to take my stand as who I really am as the physical as life and to no longer sell-out for the energy experiences of the mind.  If this is not enough, I direct myself to walk away, as far as possible without causing a scene, from the weed and while I walk, I direct myself to stop my mind and experience each and ever step that I take and the movements of my body so that I can assist myself to align myself to within and as the physical and return to the ‘action’ when I have aligned myself within and as the breath / the physical and no longer am directed by energy.

I see, realize, and understand that enjoyment and relaxation are words that can be lived in each and every breath and that in so doing so, one needs nothing to create an experience thereof, because one is already living it.

I commit myself to change my living application to that of being here in every breath as the physical where I am not directed by energy, wherein I do not create the experiences of stress, tension and boredom, so that I thus do not require weed to relax or enjoy myself – through further exploring what I am living that creates the experiences of stress, tension, and boredom experiences that I create within and as myself / my mind so that I can release them.

I commit myself to, in future writings, explore and define the physical steps I must take to integrate and live the self-corrective point of no longer requiring weed to allow self to relax. And to define what it means practically and physically as something where I retrain myself in my body and in my world/environment where I no longer require weed.
