The Biggest Enemy Isn’t Outside, It’s Inside
Escaping the entrapped mind.
When we’re trapped by our past, we can’t enjoy the present moment. We can’t appreciate the future. And we can’t find joy in living our dreams.
Because we’ve forgotten how to love.
We’ve forgotten how to connect with others. We’ve forgotten how to laugh. We’ve forgotten how good it feels to smile.
We’ve forgotten that joy comes from being happy. And happiness comes from loving.
The entrapped mind blocks our connection to other people, to ourselves, to the world around us.
We’re trapped by our own thoughts. We’re trapped by our own fears. We’re trapped by the same old stories we tell ourselves every day.
Every day we wake up, we fall asleep thinking the same thing. But we don’t realize it.
We don’t realize that we’re stuck.
We don’t understand that we’re entrapped.
