Reconciliation with life is not possible if you require an understanding of what life is about, why you are what you are, why you are here, and what, if anything, lies beyond it. Such questions are mysteries no “mind” will ever comprehend, and they are also distractions that draw you away from the life you have.

Life is a present moment reckoning where all that lies before you lives its full measure without any explanation or meaning. The “reckoning” is that you, too, can live fully in concert with everything else, as is, and without expectations that dissatisfaction, in any way, is of your own making.

It is a difficult thing to let go of all the neat little revelations you’ve determined are reasons for why things are as they are, but doing so stops an activity of your mind that always yields an erroneous result. You just don’t and won’t know, so let go. “Not-knowing” is surprisingly vast and profound, “knowing.”

Life has no way or propensity to “fall apart.” Humans, on the other hand, let it happen by giving way to mind-made expectations that do not pan out as thought or taught. Do you see? Your idea of life “falling apart” is a rigid belief, for whatever reason, that you have any control over the movement of an infinite spectacle that does what it does without any input or expectation from you. Give it up!
The upside of “giving up,” however, is that when you do, you have a chance to see that life never stops living because you think it should be other than what it is. Nor should you. “Falling apart” is the present moment’s awareness that nothing stands in the way of pristine newness that is continuously exploding into life. Wonders always unfold for those who live. Live now, live forever! They’re the same!

Thinking is a noisy affair that creates a chaotic mind, whose constant chatter drowns out silence, the emptiness into which all that is real emerges. Do you see? Nothing you think is real; it’s conceptual, and the very act of conceptualizing reality takes you into the land of dreams, hopes, and beliefs, which only adds noise to the already unreal.
The saying, “Be still and know that I (you are) am God,” is not a roadmap detailing how you come to “know” God or even your so-called self. It is a simple petition that you cannot “think” your way to knowing what YOU already are, so why “think” about it at all? Your eyes see what they see without you or anyone else understanding how or why they do.
Silence is creation, and YOU are the Creator. Silence lets you be that. Don’t give it a single thought!

Truth gets swept into the unimportant and the unnecessary, and you hold the broom that so masterfully does the sweeping. The clear view is not beholden to thought; the only thing needing sweeping is what you believe. Clear your mind, and the house is without the need for sweeping.

There is nothing you or anyone needs to know about how life will show up for you in order for you to live it. What you know, what others tell you, life must be is in no way how it is. Life is entirely out of your or anyone else’s control, and to buy into any semblance of how to make it work for you is to make it drab, stifling, and boring.
You can, however, bring “you,” as is, to every experience and encounter. That is the “real” you without the illusion that you control anything happening. You are life’s flavor and spiciness, and while you can’t change “what is,” because of “you,” experience can be rich, exciting, fun, and just better. Seriously! Go “spice” it up!

All paths, and yes, even yours and mine, “lead nowhere,” but if it has all of you, heart and soul, fully engaged, singing, dancing, laughing, and crying, it is a path like no other, and it is good. Where you “walk to” doesn’t exist, so why ask questions without answers? Walking all by itself takes you on the ride of your life.

“The path with heart,” shamans call it. Only your heart illuminates the steps you take, but the light only shines in the unquestioning silence of your soul. When you get “nowhere,” look me up; that is if I get there.

Life hides nothing from you, and there are no hidden secrets, no formulas for success or security. It unfolds as it does, not “to you” or “for you” or with profound reasons that benefit the wise, knowledgeable, and enlightened. Humans make that stuff up only because they can but shouldn’t.
Making up reasons for your life is the path to frustration and upset. Transparency, wonder, mystery, and excitement are what is and will run the gamut of your human capabilities. Only you can create an illusion or a lie, and that will always separate you from real beauty and truth. Embrace your day and experience its reality.

Wanting is not a driver of getting. Seriously, can you think of anything more grand and wondrous than the breath you are taking right now, your heart beating to a cosmic rhythm, and the essence of all that is coursing through you? How could you “want” anything more incredible than the sun on your face or raindrops tapping your window, a lover’s kiss, a friend’s warm embrace, or a smile?
When you pander to the universe, as we are oft told to do, you give way to the mundane, the selfish, and the unreal. The ultimate joy lies beneath anything you could wish for, and it quietly awaits you to be present with all that you already have, all that you already are. Simply, YOU have everything, and “having” everything means YOU “are” everything! YOU are “joy,” but only when you “want” for nothing!

You know, when you love life, suffering disappears. All things you judge right or not right give way to splendor, beauty, and myriad wonders all rolled up in “you,” wholly caught up in your experience. Stories, and all suffering, is stories lose their pizazz when living presently and in love. Close the book on your past or future. Living starts now!

When genuinely engaged in real-time, e.g., present moment awareness, all human interactions, friend or foe, will appear silly and, perhaps, a bit mundane. You may also find yourself giggling that you were once so foolish.
Live with abandon. You cannot fail at life, nor will you be graded in any way for anything you do. Only humans carry around a red pen. Have fun, not fear. Love your friendships and feuds. It won’t affect your success in life, but it will make it more enjoyable.
