Be the observer of your own life

Two days ago I felt great, full of energy and optimism. Today I feel exhausted. What it tells me is that my Earthly physical body goes through ups and downs to rival a rollercoaster. The one and only constant is my soul, the real me.

I need to remember to be the soul, the watcher - to notice how my vulnerable body suffers physically, emotionally and mentally, yet still stand apart from it. The soul has great empathy for this suffering. It knows this Earth life is temporary and deep rest awaits us at the end.
