You love that life is a mystery. You may say you want the mystery solved, and yet you may adore the anticipation of knowing the answers perhaps more than knowing the answers.
And yet there is truly no question to be answered -- and yet how can the magnificence of life on Earth be so great? And how can such majesty be yours? And how can so many people be One? How can it be that all is well and that there is an overriding majesty and beauty in life even when London Bridge is falling down? How can so much love exist and yet need to be revealed?
In terms of the mystery of life, it is like when you sit down to a great meal. The moment before eating, when you are so hungry, that suspended moment is more delicious than the food itself. You like the mysteries of life to be the carrot before you. You like a story yet untold and another and another. You want one page after another to turn. You want no end to pages.
You love that the Unknown exists. You treasure the Unknown. In comparison, the Known seems like small potatoes. I want to tell you that all is known and you already know it. It is not so much a question of discovery for you as it is of remembrance. It is like the name of someone you know, and, for a while, you simply can't think of the name. You know it, and yet you can't think of it. And then there is the moment when the name pops into your head, and you say, "Ah, that's it. I always knew it. Just couldn't think of it. But now I remember."
All that you are seeking to know is a re-cognition, beloveds. It is not so much a question of knowing as it is a question of knowing once again, of simply the light going on, and you recognize that which you already know.
All the boundlessness of life is well-known to you. You think you have forgotten. You think so until you come across an old memory, and you are reminded. You re-member. You put the pieces back together. You discover there was no puzzle to solve, just something to arise in your consciousness again.
Beloveds, you are the Knower. There are no secrets from you. Your face lights up at the realization of that which you have always known.
In truth, life has not fooled you for one moment. You have been aware all along. You have merely covered up your knowing. You have worn the guise of being unaware when you have been aware all the time.If you didn't already know, how else would you know Truth when you see it? You are seeing it again. You are re-seeing. You always want more before you to unfold. It is true that there is always more and more to unfold, and you take naps in between.
It is not so much another chapter in life as it is another awakening, one awakening after another. You wake up and fall back to sleep, wake up again, and fall back to sleep, and so you spend your life in awakening. Your eyes flutter open and close. You eyes are like the shutter of a camera, and many pictures are taken, a whole series, one after another, click click click.

"Winds of Change"

Days like today are toss-ups.To know something is settled- yet not sure its what u want. Like fishing out to sea; a calm day- a storm- then almost all memory of what happened before the present; seems to vanish & u wonder if what u just lived thru was a dream, an image, or even real. I guess tear stains speak of reality, but most other things have me wondering. I know a mind is a phenomenal thing, but how much weight can a heart carry? Great moments of complete sadness are incomparable - wow - they can hit like a tidal wave at any moment. Its getting unstuck from the droll & the apathy of total grief. Even funerals can be happier. Sorry semi- morbid thought ; but a fact of life indeed. So- as the wind blows me away in some other direction, I cling to the post of 'yesterday'. That might be the last of the truly incredible person I met awhile back. Seems a shame when all or nothing is your only option. Is that from GOD or man?[man=excuse me; its actually more often about u than anything else]. Any who- the world doesn't stop for the beleaguered unless they're taken somewhere to hide from its constant motion. I know someone who can hide themselves. Is that a particular skill? I've seen that , where someone can just drop all of the past, disappear & reappear as a whole new person! Incredible. I've tried. Can't do it.Maybe that's my problem? lol
When I see a boat in my mind- only 1 fisherman sits. When I see a room, it only has 1 chair. When I see a house, only 1 person lives inside. When I see a main street, nobody is around, everything is closed, & I'm the only pedestrian. I'm the only passenger on the train, & I must be the pilot to fly an airplane anywhere. Funny -I saw an Eagle gliding, soaring yesterday while running with my in the soccer field; but there was something menacing about his height of flight. I watched closely, my eyes searching for his, as if to scare him somehow. Watching to be sure he wasn't diving for my . Ready to interfere. I mean , what else could I think of ? He went away tho. I wondered - out of the 3 of us -who really needed the most protection?The eagles wings of freedom; My innocent Aeron, or my heart? But we were all hungry for something that allowed us to move forward with time, & change the course of the day. Is the future always better? Mine hasn't always been. Not sure about this time- again-
my nemesis of doubt. The 'hunger of the day' ? . The hunger of the rest of my life , is in the tears for the one I will always love & miss beyond my being. [Do I need an artificial heart? where's the beat gone?] How can one understand all they want to when they don't own life itself.

"TheThings We Miss"

Just wondering a few things- looking back instead of forward-lol. What do we miss other than the sheer memory of a happy youth. that's almost universal - although i understand, not for everybody. But one thing I've definitely encountered is a person who is not afraid of their own truths. Of having enough juice to unmask themselves & be unafraid of questions about their past & present. Certain secrets aren't always best kept to oneself.It leads to misunderstanding. Don't we know all things will be revealed in time anyhow? I mean the LORD told us that. I for one never want to cry out of bitterness, nor let it control my thoughts. A sour taste is a sour taste, who needs it. Maybe just we learn about others in our own understanding & that's meant to direct our choices? Not sure about that- but i do know I've made some huge mistakes with my heart. But like I said. Not bitter as much as saddened by inabilities of denying ones own self when its obviously not the way to handle things. What is it we protect in ourselves? Honesty, & good thoughts are certainly worth protecting, but aren't there times we can laugh at our own actions? Do we not trust love enough to lose our fears? Well- I just wonder how long it takes for certain things to evolve into a persons acceptance of themselves, even imperfect & sometimes perfect. This was just a musing I guess. Really- what was that saying? accept the things we cannot change? I guess I'll just leave it at that, close my door for awhile & lose myself somewhere other than online.Without bitterness - only with deep sadness & regret I might have fallen for the person i find the hardest to understand, rather hard.Was it meant to be? or just a lack of knowing what a person can do to another person? not just in love, but for the many reasons of those who strive in vain. Is there a prize for anything in the end?
