Everything we do, every event, circumstance, or activity, is a brush with life. It is all rich and wonderful. What we choose is unimportant. Get on with living and stop worrying about making right or wrong choices. You cannot make a wrong choice in an infinite life. In infinity, you have the opportunity to make them all.

Your reality does not happen behind you or in front of you. Do you see? Your mind is the traveler, and its travel is always to the past or the future, both of which do not exist and therefore are not real. Seriously when does anything “real” happen? You know the answer; it’s NOW, in this present moment! Why would you go anywhere else?

We cannot know what the universe won’t divulge, which is everything, especially what we think we know, which is made up or theorized. All you can “know” is what YOU are within the cosmic soup with no recipe. The best place to start on a quest to know what YOU are is to divest everything you think you know (literally everything)”. What you know is the artificial and chemical additives to an already tasty, healthy entrée, AKA YOU.

The search for meaning or purpose in life is the problem with life in general. It suggests that we cannot be here for the simple reason of embracing and enjoying everything about life. The bottom line is we are already so much more than what we seek to find. Take a break from searching today. Embrace your magnificence without guilt or fear. Get high on YOU

If you determine that there are things to do, places to go, etc., in your quest to know yourself, you will encounter both but will not find anything but more traffic and noise through which you must navigate, leading you ever farther from what you seek. The discovery of YOU happens when the search ends. “Be still, and know that YOU are God.” You can do that right now.

Is a rose any more or less beautiful because you or anyone else thinks so? NO! Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder, as we often hear. Beauty “is” without any thought you or anyone gives it. Oh, and by the way, there’s much more beauty than you think. Stop thinking and see for yourself!

Don’t dismiss life with statements such as, “There’s nothing I can do about this, or I must learn from that, ” etc. Such statements are spiritual gobbledygook and an apathetic way to allow suffering, which is likely what you want anyway. YOU are life itself, and nothing exists without your experience of it. In other words, when it comes to life, you are smack in it regardless of what you are experiencing. Ultimately, life is living you, not the other way around. Give it all you’ve got with the exception of what you think it should be!

Do not replace what you think you are with something someone else says you should be. What you “think” and what others think is an indulgence of ego (yours or theirs) that seeks to “fit” where it can’t. Finding “what you are” requires not a single thought nor any form of ego (which is all thought and imagination). What YOU are precedes ego, and ego is not allowed in the hallowed ground of YOU! Get out of your mind.

Don’t complain about what you think makes you a victim. If anything, complain about yourself finding the time to give a shit! Stop giving a shit! You’re not a victim unless you, all by yourself, make it so.
