We feel our way along The Way. We feel our way to The Way. If we are thinking, we are not feeling. Thinking about a feeling is not feeling the feeling. We cannot feel a thought, and we cannot think a feeling. Thinking enables us to consider our options. Considering our options means feeling how we feel about them. Feelings guide us to what needs to be done, and not done. Feelings set a certain tone. Our way of being has a tonal quality about it, a feel to it. Rather than think about who we want to be, we might feel about how we want to feel, and allow our feelings to guide us into being. We might practice feeling how want to feel. Centered, perhaps. Balanced. Harmonious. Peaceful. Integrated/at one. Grounded. At home with ourselves... Feeling how we want to feel has implications for what we do. Certain actions rule out certain feelings. Certain feelings rule out certain actions. Feel how you want to feel and let your actions, your choices, fall into place around how you feel. It will be a different way of doing your life.
