“How does this serve me?” Have you ever asked the question? “This,” whatever “it” happens to be, is your mind asking why life happens to you and how it happening benefits you. Underneath all questioning, what YOU are is the only real question worth having an answer to. Do you see?
Life doesn’t ask questions because YOU are the only question and its subsequent answer. In other words, life lives YOU, not for you. YOU are the infinite, out of which all that is finite proceeds, and life, however it manifests, is just passing through, YOU. Wave it on and smile as it passes. YOU are all it’s got, and it loves you for it.

Perception, coupled with language, is dreams forged in the unreal, the non-existent. Un-coupled with language, perception stops time but lasts forever. Suspend narratives and see.

Awareness “knows” no truth. You see, it doesn’t need to. “It” already is, all that is. You, me, anyone, everyone attempting to define awareness is not the truth, but rather the tainting of it. Eyes open to truth are, simply, open.

You are entangled with all that is, regardless of its distance or time from you, negating attraction, philosophy, psychology, religion, and politics altogether. It’s not about your mind and its most grand imaginings, the goodness of your intentions, your caring heart. It’s YOU enwrapped in a universal soup that streams the infinite. YOU are the flavor of life; when you’re not “present,” it loses its taste.

The cost of awareness is your certainty, knowledge, beliefs, hopes, dreams, etc., which is far too high for most to pay. After all, illusion provides some semblance of safety, comfort, and security, so the “search” for something else is a search for “more” of the same, e.g., no search at all. It’s no different than paying a therapist to make you crazier.
If your so-called “search” does not upset every sensibility you possess, every single thing you think you know, you’re skipping down a road, “adding to” your illusion. Reality is unfixed, ambiguous, and upside down from anything you think it should be, and its only promise is that life, in all its forms, is mysterious, dangerous, unsafe, but wondrous in every way. In simple terms, “less (of all you think) is (really) more.”

The best and only version of yourself is what you are now without the thought processing that says there is some other version you should be. Thinking about what you “are not” prevents you from any possibility of being what YOU are. Version “YOU, NOW” never needs an upgrade! Send the programmers home; you’ve got this!

No one can teach the most important thing you can learn in this life. What is the most important thing you can learn, you ask? You must find it yourself. I can tell you, however, no one ever discovered it by searching for it. At the heart of it all is your heart. Learning starts there and finishes there.

If all that is is spiritual (and it is), then any position you take, belief you hold, and judgments you make are no more spiritual than others you disparage. Spirituality has nothing to do with your sense of right but everything to do with your sense of wrong. That is, loving the wrong you compare to your right.
Love and spirituality know no opposites. Do you?

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.
