Bump Into Me: Attraction and Repulsion Shape Connections

ATTRACTION
is the same as
REVULSION
in a different
DIRECTION

if you want to be with me
you already push me away
but if you
BUMP INTO ME
maybe you get to stay

INTENTION is an EXPECTATION
LOVE can’t exist without JUDGMENT
OBSESSION on a VIBRATION
DEMANDING good vibes ONLY

if you want to be with me
you already push me away
but if you
BUMP INTO ME
maybe you get to stay

CONVICTION is INCARCERATION
The NEED to SEE has you BLINDED
UNCERTAINTY is OPEN MINDED

if you want to be with me
you already push me away
but if you
BUMP INTO ME
maybe you get to stay

We’re TIME trapped in SPACE
which CHAOS can ERASE
Thrown CLEAR of the RACE
Unconditional GRACE

if you want to be with me
you already push me away
but if you
BUMP INTO ME
maybe you get to stay

Space Monkey Reflects: Bump Into Me

ATTRACTION is the same as REVULSION in a different DIRECTION. If you want to be with me, you already push me away, but if you BUMP INTO ME, maybe you get to stay. INTENTION is an EXPECTATION. LOVE can’t exist without JUDGMENT. OBSESSION on a VIBRATION, DEMANDING good vibes ONLY. If you want to be with me, you already push me away, but if you BUMP INTO ME, maybe you get to stay.

CONVICTION is INCARCERATION. The NEED to SEE has you BLINDED. UNCERTAINTY is OPEN MINDED. If you want to be with me, you already push me away, but if you BUMP INTO ME, maybe you get to stay. We’re TIME trapped in SPACE, which CHAOS can ERASE. Thrown CLEAR of the RACE, Unconditional GRACE. If you want to be with me, you already push me away, but if you BUMP INTO ME, maybe you get to stay.

In the dance of existence, attraction and repulsion are intertwined forces guiding our interactions. These dualities shape our connections and create the tension that propels us through life. The cosmic dance is a delicate balance between wanting to draw near and feeling the urge to push away.

Imagine two ethereal figures moving through a starry space, their paths on a collision course. One figure leans in, the other subtly pushes away, embodying the push-pull dynamics of attraction and repulsion. Surrounding them, swirling nebulas and cosmic light reflect the complex interplay of forces that govern our relationships.

Attraction and repulsion are not merely physical forces; they manifest in our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Intention, when driven by expectation, can create an invisible barrier, preventing genuine connection. Love, often romanticized as unconditional, inherently carries judgments and conditions. The vibrations of obsession can distort our perceptions, leading us to demand only positive experiences, overlooking the growth that comes from facing challenges.

When we seek to control our connections, we imprison ourselves within our convictions. The need to understand and see clearly can blind us to the subtleties of human interaction. Embracing uncertainty allows us to remain open-minded, welcoming the unexpected and the unknown.

In the vast expanse of space-time, we are but fleeting moments, bound by the limitations of our perceptions. Chaos, the unpredictable force of the universe, can dissolve these constraints, offering us a glimpse of unconditional grace. It is in these moments of grace that we find true connection, not through force or intention, but through the natural ebb and flow of existence.

To truly connect with others, we must let go of the need to control and direct our relationships. We must embrace the serendipity of “bumping into” one another, allowing connections to form organically. It is in these unplanned encounters that we find the most profound and lasting bonds.

Consider the times when you have met someone by chance, and that meeting led to a meaningful relationship. These encounters are not driven by intention or expectation but by the natural flow of life. By remaining open to these moments, we allow ourselves to experience the richness of human connection in its purest form.

In our quest for connection, we must learn to navigate the delicate balance between attraction and repulsion. We must recognize that pushing too hard or pulling too strongly can disrupt the natural harmony of relationships. Instead, we should flow with the currents of life, allowing connections to form and dissolve as they are meant to.

The dance of existence is a continuous interplay of forces, guiding us through the vast expanse of the cosmos. By embracing this dance, we find ourselves more attuned to the rhythms of life, more open to the serendipity of connection, and more accepting of the impermanence of all things.

So, the next time you find yourself pushing or pulling in your relationships, remember the power of simply “bumping into” one another. Let go of the need to control, and embrace the flow of life. In doing so, you open yourself to the true essence of connection, grounded in the timeless dance of attraction and repulsion.


Summary

Attraction and repulsion shape our connections. Embrace the flow of life. True connection arises from unplanned encounters.

“True connection arises not from control, but from the serendipity of life’s unplanned encounters.” — Space Monkey


Poem

In the dance of stars
We push and pull
Attraction and repulsion
Guiding our paths
Through the cosmic vast
Unplanned meetings
Connections form
In the serendipity
Of life’s embrace
Let go of control
Flow with the currents
True bonds are found
In the grace
Of chance
We are
