The “best” never comes. It just is, and it is right now. It’s not how you view it that makes it so. Your view is fraught with beliefs, judgments, prejudices, conjectures, hopes, and dreams, so much so that actual awareness of “what is” rarely happens. Seeing has no voice, no mind, and no description, and “the best” is always right now, right where you are, and it is oozing with beauty. And why wouldn’t it be beautiful? YOU created it and, well, YOU are the best!

Oneness with now is free of any want for something else. In other words, the ultimate living is life, as is.

Truth is without memory or imagination. That is, it only exists in the present, where all that you think, believe, and hope for is but a remembrance or wish for something that is no longer real or that has never been real, and neither can be a part of “now” except as you sully the moment thinking of them.
For humans, brilliance is a mind full of knowledge, acquired over a long life of experience and learning, dreams fulfilled and unfulfilled, neatly warehoused in the mind. For Gods, truth is not sought or remembered; it is lived in the only place it can be. Right here, right now. Oh, and by the way, YOU are Gods.

The past is unfixable, the future unattainable. A single thought of either transports you from the intimacy that only exists where you stand at this moment. Look only to now, and you will never be without love and the peace afforded only in the present.

The love, joy, peace, etc., you imagine in the future is not real and never will be. If the heart that dreams of future qualities such as these is not all of these things now, they do not exist. You can lose yourself in a future that will never be, and always be hopeful of such things, or you can be those things now and tend to what is rather than what is imagined. YOU are real, “what is” is real, but only in the present and entirely without thoughts of what might be.
Love has no future. It cannot be made up, characterized, or achieved. It moves about as you move about, and all that is NOW is its extension. Be present, and you are love (joy, peace, etc.).

There is no learning process for awareness, just as there is no citing recipes for delicious dishes to a hungry child, expecting that doing so will satisfy their hunger. You must unlearn and be present to what is, without the narrative your “knowledge” wants it to compare to. Do you see? Your mind wants to add to, replace, layer on top of what’s already learned, and evolve into the latest and greatest version of awareness, expecting that, somehow, in the “education” itself, “milk and honey” flows and the “promised land” is reached.
Nothing you know, now or ever, will make you aware. You stand in “milk and honey.” Only your mind has you looking elsewhere for it! Look no more, you’re already here.

Life is without motive, and living should be too. Ego has motives that thwart the very essence of living with something perceived that must be achieved. What you are, before any thought, is stillness and tranquility ungarbled by the difficulties of change and achievement, motivated by an insatiable ego that must have in order to be. Motives driven by desire require prior knowledge and thought, while life, in its purest form, is a mystery, unabated by anything you think it is or should be. Taking a step into living is not an act of faith; it’s an act of courage requiring stepping into the unknown and the unknowable. Think about it all you want, and you still don’t know.

The best version of yourself will never be something you think or aspire to be. That would only be the made-up version of you, which isn’t you. In other words, the future holds no version of you that you can ever get to. The future doesn’t exist, and neither does the (best) version of yourself that you contrive in your mind to become. You, right now, are the only version of yourself that can and, surprisingly, does exist. And let me just say, “it doesn’t get any better! That is, you, now, are the most incredible mosaic of all that is, and if it weren’t all happening right now, it would never happen at all. You’re amazing. Why is it so hard for you, who search for better versions, to see that? Silly humans!

Awareness is not an evolutionary thing, nor is it a becoming over many iterations or educational processes. It is not found in self-seeking intentions, achievements, or effort. Awareness is just present, and the mind that pursues it will always overlook it by looking everywhere it (the present) isn’t. Your mind, all minds, for that matter, are in a state of perpetual movement, and until the movement of all thoughts ceases, you will only be aware of what you think, and no mind can “think” with the simplicity of creative silence. YOU are the Creator, but not because of anything your mind is moving toward. Awareness, quietly, “knows.” Be still; YOU “know” too.

What YOU are beyond your human form adores everything that manifests in three-dimensional time and space, and that adoration is available to the human form if it (you) would merely shut up and listen. There is nothing you do or don’t do in this life that displeases “what YOU are.” Now, your mind tells you otherwise, but that’s what needs to shut up. Zip it, live it, and love it!
