Dune: Part Two (2024) + reddit text posts

“Don’t cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time making it. Your past mistakes are meant to guide you, not define you; and if you are not willing to change, then don’t expect your life to. The first place we lose the battle is in our own thinking. If you think it’s permanent then it’s permanent. If you think you’ve reached your limits then you have. You have to change your thinking…You have the power to change your life at any given moment. Never forget that.” Socrates said that, “the secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” Be kind and gentle with yourselves, my friends. With adversity, comes opportunity. Forgive yourself quickly so as to not waste DIVINE opportunity. Do not continue to slap the Universe-Yourself in the face. Slow down Take a deeep breath… …even if it’s just for a few minutes, try to LISTEN and be humbled – Every single one you is worthy of ALL you hold dear in the depths of your heart! Do NOT deny yourself of your Divine Truth, your Divine LOVE! I think it’s crucial (especially now) that we all refrain from seeking external validation for the present that is our existence. Whether you seek to satiate this hunger/loneliness/anxiety/boredom/etc– btw, when you feel this way, the ONLY thing you absolutely NEED and the only person that NEEDS to care for or love you, IS YOU– and silencing your own needs by using other people is pretty rude, completely nonsensical, and seriously fucking unhealthy for everyone involved. Each of us is here, infinitely learning to understand and ask for what we need, in order to decide how we move forward in creating who we ARE. This perceived fragmented journey through "Time” and “Space” has led you to exactly where you are right NOW. How perfectly imperfect is that?! Because when you look at who you were three years ago, and then ten years ago, you might laugh and you’ll most likely cringe; but this reflection on your journey will always contain a powerful and peaceful nostalgia- one that you can actually have right now, in the present, with plenty of patience, self-discipline, practice, and love. I think that when we reflect back on our lives- regardless of what personal hells we have trekked across, seemed to barely climb out of, and not only survived through, but THRIVED through- those earlier pains have long since dulled, your heart has healed itself many times over; and yes, maybe we can remember the significant Darknesses that have also forged and molded our Strength time and time again, but I believe that we primarily reminisce, FEEL, resonate with, and re-experience the Light. And like very young children, we easily and happily re-welcome and relive those moments in which the Love outside of us allowed us to reconnect to the Love eternally within us. When we look back, maybe we look back to once again know the Love that we have presently and temporarily forgotten. We go back to being naive to remember. And we will do it again, many times over. But you can have that Love now because you are entitled to it! YOUR BIRTH, YOUR LIFE, THE FACT THAT THE UNIVERSE THOUGHT YOU SPECIFICALLY NEEDED TO EXIST– THIS is the ONLY validation you will EVER need. Speak openly and honestly, with appropriate consideration. People will ALWAYS feel what they are going to feel and it is not your responsibility or obligation to convolute that process by choosing them as you neglect yourself and your own highest TRUTH. You are NOT responsible for or even capable of genuinely/deeply/permanently changing other’s emotions, experiences, decisions, or lives. Look back on your entire life thus far; try to recall each moment, whether you perceived it to be inconsequential or significant, agonizing or ethereal, full of darkness or full of light–now try and remember each passing thought in your mind, each passing feeling that resonated within these moments… and you will discover that you most likely cannot. Reflect upon the infinite nature of Yourself; it is inexplicably complex because you, yourself are a Universe. And so is every One else. So if you desire to truly and deeply Love the people and the world around you, look Inward. You are the One you are seeking. If everyone were to commit to the lifelong (most likely eternal lol) alignment with their Highest Truths, we could know a deep love and true peace on this plane of existence. Infinite Love, Respect, and Gratitude for You. Thank you for listening!
