There is more significance to this statement than what can be first assumed. It in no way means we need to run out and buy the latest fashion Wellington’s and a spade to plant potatoes. To be in tune with nature is to accept yourself for whom you truly are, to be how you are without accepting ridicule or harming others. Worry less and try not to hold onto control when your true self tells you otherwise through gut instinct. Yes we all do it, we assume we know better than this natural feeling we have been granted and all becauseĀ our need to control pops a little voice in our head to say “No way, I’m right”. If we really pay attention when these thoughts pop up, we will notice the heaviness in our gut and yes, at some point in our future, we will pay the price of being in control.
This isn’t about being the boss or being controlled, these thoughts are purely man-made and egotistical. This is about being in tune with the natural source from within, balancing the thought process with gut instinct brings energised feelings and excitement through the whole being that emerges with us every day. It brings total relaxation to connect with renewing energies to support our body each day. Some would say having control does this but look at it this way, it may work for a short while but constant control would have to be maintained and this takes energy. Sleep would not be significant as the mind would always be planning the next strategy to keep control, the best outcome in the long run is exhaustion and depression. Then the consequence of our controlled actions might implicate us in violence or uncertain attention.
We cannot change the world as there is so many trying to control it, causing wars and famine or abuse and even death. We can change our self and not play into theĀ opinions of others if it is against our nature. This is where the significance of the statement has more power, we should be true to our self and pity those who need to control, it certainly in no way means we have to be controlled by them. The best action is to distance our self from them, with support if needed. Be in tune with nature.
