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!

Funny thing we often say, e.g., “I am closing this chapter in my life.” Funny because there are no chapters in life, and life ultimately consists of a single page. That is the one you are living now. Nothing behind it and nothing in front. Just a blank page waiting for you to fill it with everything you can create. Yours is a story without a beginning or end; it is the most extraordinary story “never” told, only fully lived. Best of all, you don’t have to “write” a thing. Get busy living.
