Mystery is the core of every experience; we either challenge it with reason or embrace it with our will. Most of us look for or create reasons for why things are as they are. Sadly, our reason occurs in the overused bed of right and wrong, which is always faulty. Without knowing why or how, it takes guts to plunge into “what is.” Let not your reason keep you from doing so.

Knowing “what you are” only comes by detaching yourself from what you think you know about yourself. Let go of everything you have been told or believe yourself to be. There is no human consciousness in all the universe capable of comprehending “how great thou art.”

The experience of something always surpasses the thought of it. Let not what you think spoil the splendor of what is. Peace, love, and beauty reside in a place that cannot be thought of.

You are on a path unaffected by your plans and resolutions whose intent is to take you this way or that or to do one thing or another. Your path is the least traveled and will always be that way. No one can experience your journey, nor can you experience theirs. Resolve to love and appreciate the only path you could be on and thrill that no one else is on it with you. Yours truly is “The road less traveled.”

The exceptions to the rules tell us the most about life; they tell us the truth. No matter our particular collective values, we are all exceptional, far beyond any collective viewpoint or idea. Remember this: YOU are more significant than any collective’s view of you. Even the collectives you subscribe to. Be exceptional today; just by being YOU

What we like to call reality requires a definition formed in our minds. What is real takes experience. In other words, the mind interprets experience and then alters it. Get into life without the noise of judgment, definition, or interpretation. Experience (reality) requires no agreements.

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.

You are the canvas upon which everything is painted, and whether there is color, expression, beauty, or nothing at all, YOU remain life’s only artist. In other words, you are not an expression of life; life is an expression of you. Life’s beauty leaves no room for any questions you think need answers. Let go and be amazed at what returns.

You cannot be in the present if your heart is not there with you, and if you’re deep in thought, your heart is not around. Thinking is the expressway to non-reality.
