The beauty of observing people, situations and knowledge. One of the beautiful curranderas I got to meet in Ecuador explained us about the micro and macro.
Life is beautiful but sometimes also comes with it’s challenges. Within the theory of micro and macro it is important to know when to zoom in and out.
When it feels like life is ending and everything is a total mess, it is important to think of the macro. We are all just humans on this planet called earth, a floating rock in an endless expanding universe. You are here for a short and temporary time. Zoom out, in a few hours, days or years it will not matter. Do not get stuck on the problems in your life. You will move through them. Things will pass.
At the same time sometimes we are so focused on the bigger scheme of things that we forget about the micro. While the micro is very very important. For instance the fabric you wear, the food you nourish yourself with and connecting to the water you drink. All the vibrations matter. From the thoughts you are going to sleep with to the way you talk to another being.
When to focus on the micro and macro is a skill you can develop over time. Zooming in and out.
Enjoy your life and remember in the grant scheme of things: you are just a hump of cells walking around on this earth trying our best.
