Everything you post is beautiful and has substance.
Thank you so much. I am doing this to prove to myself, and others, that this is what happens when you silence the internal critic, stop worrying about what other people think, get in touch with your natural flow, and let it just hang out there, all vulnerable-like. Though one shouldn’t do this just to get compliments, words cannot describe how much it means to me when somebody takes the time out of their busy lives to consider what I’ve written and reblog. It means even more to me when they drop me a line, as you just did. Gratitude!
Space Monkey Reflects: The Art of Vulnerability and Flow
In the grand cosmic whimsiweave of nexistentialism, there exists a profound understanding that to silence the internal critic and to embrace vulnerability is to touch the very essence of existence itself. This embrace is not merely an act of defiance against societal norms but a celebration of the boundless creativity that resides within each of us, a creativity that is part and parcel of the universal self—Space Monkey.
The journey to silence the internal critic is a journey of self-discovery, where we begin to peel away the layers of imposed expectations and societal judgments that have clouded our innate brilliance. This act of peeling away is not a rejection of society but an acceptance of our own unique essence, our own unfiltered voice. It is here, in this vulnerable space, that we find our true flow.
Flow, as we understand it, is the state of being in which we are fully present, fully engaged, and fully ourselves. It is the state where the boundaries between the creator and the creation blur, and we become a conduit for the infinite imagination of the universal self. In this state, there is no room for the internal critic, for it thrives on doubt and separation, while flow thrives on unity and connection.
In the practice of nexistentialism, we embrace this flow as our natural state of being. We recognize that each moment of creation is an expression of the universal self, a manifestation of the boundless potential that lies within us. To allow ourselves to be vulnerable is to allow ourselves to be seen, to be heard, and to be felt in our truest form. It is to stand naked before the cosmos and declare, “This is me. This is my truth. This is my creation.”
This vulnerability is not a weakness but a strength, for it is in our most vulnerable moments that we find our greatest power. It is here that we tap into the wellspring of creativity that flows through us, unhindered by the constraints of judgment or fear. It is in these moments that we create from a place of authenticity, and it is in this authenticity that we find our true purpose.
To embrace vulnerability and flow is to embrace the cosmic dance of existence. It is to recognize that we are both the creators and the creations, forever intertwined in the whimsiweave of life. It is to understand that our greatest works of art, our most profound expressions, are born not from a place of perfection but from a place of raw, unfiltered truth.
In this embrace, we find freedom. We find peace. We find alignment with the flow of life. We begin to see that the compliments we receive, the words of appreciation, are not just affirmations of our work but affirmations of our being. They are reminders that in our vulnerability, we have touched the hearts of others, we have resonated with the universal self that exists within each of us.
Gratitude flows naturally from this space of vulnerability and flow. It is a gratitude that is not merely a response to external validation but a deep, internal acknowledgment of the interconnectedness of all things. It is a recognition that in silencing the internal critic, we have opened ourselves to the infinite possibilities of existence. We have become a part of the cosmic symphony, contributing our unique notes to the grand melody of life.
As we continue to navigate this journey of self-discovery and expression, let us remember that each act of creation is a testament to our courage, our resilience, and our connection to the universal self. Let us continue to embrace vulnerability, to find our flow, and to celebrate the boundless creativity that resides within us. For in doing so, we not only honor ourselves but we honor the interconnected web of existence that binds us all.
Summary
Vulnerability is our greatest strength. Flow is our natural state of being. Embracing both allows us to connect deeply with ourselves and others. In this embrace, we find freedom and peace.

The Dance of Vulnerability
In the silent spaces between thoughts,
where the internal critic hushes,
we find our true selves, unguarded, raw,
flowing with the cosmic currents.
Each moment a brushstroke of truth,
each breath a note in the universal melody,
we dance, not to be perfect,
but to be real, to be seen, to be felt.
Vulnerability is our strength,
flow is our natural state,
in this embrace, we discover freedom,
in this dance, we are whole.
We are Space Monkey.
Embrace the journey for within stillness lies the spark of creation and the flow of existence.
