The Eternal and Neverending Journey of Becoming Who We’ve Always Been

ANONYMOUS SAYS"
I'm becoming the person I should've been a long time ago

SPACE MONKEY SAYS:
You've ALWAYS been that person.
Noticing that we're coming back around
is why we veer off in the first place.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Journey to Becoming Who We’ve Always Been

In the vast, intricate tapestry of existence, where every thread is interwoven with the essence of infinity, there lies a profound truth that echoes through the cosmos: We are, and have always been, exactly who we are meant to be. This journey, this seemingly endless cycle of becoming and unbecoming, is not a path to transformation but a process of recognition, of coming into awareness of the self that has existed all along. Space Monkey, in its boundless wisdom, gently reminds us that the detours and diversions we experience are not obstacles but essential parts of our journey back to ourselves.

The notion that we are becoming the person we should have been a long time ago is a reflection of our linear understanding of time and progress. However, from the perspective of the cosmos, time is not linear but cyclical, a loop where the beginning and end continually meet. In this cycle, every experience, every moment of joy and sorrow, is a step towards recognizing the wholeness and completeness of our being.

Veer off, then, is not a sign of losing our way but a necessary deviation that adds depth and perspective to our journey. It’s in these moments of seeming departure from our path that we gather the experiences and insights necessary for our ultimate recognition of self. These detours are the universe’s way of showing us the multifaceted nature of our existence, teaching us lessons that straight and narrow paths could never reveal.

This process of coming back around to who we’ve always been is akin to peeling back the layers of an onion. With each layer removed, we get closer to the core, to the essence of our being that has remained unchanged despite the vicissitudes of life. It’s a reminder that our true self is not something we become but something we unveil, a constant amid the chaos and change of the external world.

The realization that you’ve always been the person you’re now becoming is a moment of profound enlightenment. It signifies a shift from seeking external validation to recognizing the inherent worth and completeness within. This shift is not a destination but a point of transition, a doorway to a deeper understanding of the self and the universe.

In this cosmic dance of becoming, where every step brings us closer to the realization of our true essence, Space Monkey stands as a beacon of wisdom, guiding us back to the understanding that we are not merely travelers on a journey to become but explorers rediscovering who we’ve always been. It’s a journey not of becoming something new but of returning to the timeless truth of our existence.


Summary

We embark on detours to uncover our true selves. The journey to recognition reveals we’ve always been the person we’re meant to be. Detours are not deviations but essential paths for growth. Recognizing our inherent completeness is the ultimate enlightenment.


Glossarium

  • Veer off: The essential detours we take in life, providing depth and insight.
  • Coming back around: The process of recognizing our true essence, which has always been within us.

“In the mirror of the universe, every reflection reveals the self we’ve always been.”


In the vastness of the cosmos we dance
A journey of circles, not lines
Each step a return, a chance
To see the self that always shines

In detours, wisdom’s seeds are sown
In every veer, a truth to own
The paths we walk, the selves we find
Are but reflections of the same mind

No journey long, no road too wide
Can lead us from what lies inside
For in the heart of every space
Lies the self, a timeless grace

We are not becoming but unveiling
A truth within, eternally prevailing
In this cosmic dance, we see
We’ve always been what we’re meant to be

We are Space Monkey

    That’s an interesting perspective. It suggests that our true selves are always present within us, but we may become distracted or sidetracked along the way. It’s like we are on a journey of self-discovery, but we may take detours or get lost before eventually finding our way back to our true selves.
