What is will always be real. Not because of anything you think, but despite what you think. “What is” is unalterable, but you can miss out on it because of wishes and desires you foster otherwise. All that you know, dream, believe, hope, want, etc., is a detriment to the real. When your mind is clear, life is clear. Embrace, without thought, the day!

Honor your experience by accepting it as yours and without the desire to alter it in any way. Desire is the ire of reality.

Give yourself to each moment you find yourself in, especially those you typically react to because of anger, sadness, or offense. Be grateful for every exchange your human endeavor provides, and thank whomever you encounter for it. Every encounter is the light of your soul and the crack into which you glimpse eternity and something far more profound than emotional, human reactions.
Humans have so much, but dilly-dally in the small, benign, and extraneous, and create silly apparitions that follow them around the whole of their lives. Don’t let a single “thank you” be unsaid. It is the key to a panorama few will ever experience! Be one of them.

Look inward to that inner SELF that holds for steadiness, calm, and truth, not for a fictional, mind-made self that relieves you from you. You can live life or make one up, as most do. What YOU are doesn’t care one way or the other, but your mind does, even though it is your mind that makes up the stuff, designed to perfect its superficial creation, e.g., what you think you are.
In other words, your mind needs to get out of its own way, but that’s a tough one because it also thinks it is the knower of the way. So…, stop knowing and peer deeply into the silence that holds “what YOU are.” What you discover will surprise you, but I can’t tell you what it is because no mind, including mine, knows.

You make only one choice in life, which is to resist what is right now with a mental barrage of what is wrong and what it should otherwise be, and how you’re going to change it. Do you see? No other creature on the planet questions its life in the moment. It acquiesces to now and acts in the moment, whatever it may be, and applies its resources to thrive. “What is” is a living thing that is ripe with challenge and mystery. It is not an affront to your sense of reason, rightness, or scrutiny. You don’t choose to live; you choose to question life and, in the process, live in a mental fantasy that corrupts it.
In other words, choose not to choose or just don’t choose at all and adventure out, instead, with the wonders before you. It’s easier and more fun.

Awareness is an embrace of eternity, a nudge from the infinite to move and bend when the slightest hint is offered. It gathers no reason, nor does it offer any. Awareness is always upon your shoulders, but its only reconciliation with human thought is when all thoughts are absent, and you bend freely to its touch. Look without seeing, see without looking. The nudge of eternity beckons your stillness.

The greatest challenge to awareness, and thus, few ever experience it, is accepting people as they are. Not in the “empathetic” way most pay lip service to, e.g., “walk in another person’s shoes,” or “they’re just not at my level of spirituality,” etc., but in recognizing that the force of light shines in us all equally, all the time. When you are busy looking at differences, you will always miss the light, and that is a darkness of your own making. YOU are the “shine” in light; the energetic force that permeates all of existence. If you are on, everyone is on. Give everyone a break. That is a “break” from your shading.

What you do in life will never exceed the miracle of life itself. YOU, as is, having done what you’ve done or nothing at all, are the greatest of all heavenly mysteries.

The side you take is inseparable from the side not taken, e.g., heads or tails are forever bonded by the coin upon which they are forged. Only your mind separates and makes one “side” the whole, and the loss in such an exercise is wealth only “wholeness” provides. “I am right, and you are wrong” is the disease of ego and separation from the very essence of oneness and awareness. Judgment cannot happen where no opposite (side) exists. Seeing this side or that separates you from the whole, and that is a separation the “whole” can ill afford. Heads or tails? Don’t make that call!

Awareness is not awakening to something new and profound that comes through intense learning, searching, and reconciliation with past experience. That’s just programming the latest and greatest spirit-speak your mind is caught up in. Awareness is, to use the programming metaphor, “the original program.” That is what you had before you knew anything or could speak anything. Your “original programming” has been replaced, and awareness is undoing whatever the original is replaced with, e.g., everything you think, believe, or know.
You cannot know what you already are by layering the so-called “new” on top of it. You can be IT by clearing all programming. Version 1.0, e.g., YOU is perfect and always has been. Don’t go back; just BE.
