Something I Know. Part 1

When I was 14 I believed that one had to adhere to a philosophy or religion.  For what purpose,  I had yet to figure that out.  I travelled, questioned, meditated and  past life regressed. I got massaged, Reikied, Zero Balanced, Theta healed, acupunctured, Tarot carded, astrologized ( is there such a word?) rolfed, and studied lots. I lived and studied in lands that are considered the cradle of civilization,  land of the Tao and rising sun only to find out as an adult that wherever I am and whoever I "think" I am or wish to become is simply an illusion! 

Whew!! It sure is liberating knowing that after all of my adventures and wanderings,  I have returned to fine.   It is said, and I agree,  that we are beings of divine grace and simply go through our lives forgetting this bit!  I am at last free to no longer clutter my mind with the limiting concerns of perfection or of lacking enough spirituality or enlightenment!!  I can, without restraint,  move through my mundane days and see the brilliance of everything or not.  I can grumble about too much laundry knowing that my bitching at that moment in time does not define me as a person (neither does it get the laundry folded any faster).  Ah, the vastness of the temporal  a true freedom to enjoy all things while Knowing that I am both on my way and already there.

This is what I know to be true.  This is what I feel to be definitive of kindness, compassion and love.

ENSHRINEHEALTH DYNAMICS TIP:

Follow your thoughts.  What we think ultimately creates our world.  The further we move away from thoughts of judgement and limitation (which are borne of fear and sadness) and move toward thoughts of kindness the sooner our lives will manifest the results of kindness.  Illuminating these thoughts is the first step to realizing that they are neither who we are nor that they have the power we think they do.   So, when you listen to those voices that judge, criticize and justify, simply acknowledge them and *POOF* they disappear.
