Resistance

I know change is good for me
I know I am all ready for it
Still there is this unseen resistance
As if something within me dies ..
Even if I know staying the same is unhealthy
I still feel this resistance is mine...
Have you come across something similar
Deep hidden inside you
That is so hard to give away
The suffering says - since you resist
I am here to stay
And I resist this feeling of guilt and shame
I resist this resistance within myself
And the more I resist the more stronger it becomes
I think that’s how this inner resistance works
So here I say- I respect you from within
I observe you objectively as feelings and sensations
Won’t label you as ether good or bad
I will stay with you without any expectations
As a compassionate friend - as an outside observer
And as I observe I see with some clarity
That you may have some higher purpose that’s beyond me to understand
But one thing is for sure
As I surrender and let go
You are no longer resistance
You slowly dissolve into something anew
Empty space with simple awareness
Resistance- where are you my friend
I change my perception and I feel Zen
