Reclaim Your Chicken

Who is running your life chicken or you? Are you like a chicken running around with your head cut off or are you a head running around with your chicken cut off? Who runs your life? Does your desire run your life or your thinking clear mind runs your life?
From my own experience, when I let my desire run my life, I get into trouble. This is the way I relate to the metaphor of chicken and head. My nervous system gets disturbed when my desire, intention and action are not in harmony or in sink with my thinking. I do not like this tug of war within myself. Life teaches us lesson if we are aware and open to see when I get off the track. I know I am not perfect. I have learned not to get imprisoned by my unrealistic desire and that way suffer. Since I am not fighting with my own self, I feel more free and do the best I can. I do not want to be my own enemy. I want to be my friend and live in harmony, in accord with my desire, intellect and actions. Self-examination and following the inner voice of wisdom have helped me live a harmonious life.

Namaste.
