Musings of a Spiritual Warrior

20 April 2006

Another day, another musing.  My the days are flying by.  It is not right to be so busy all of the time.  There needs to be an opportunity to enjoy life.  That includes the work life as well.  Though, it does have its moments.  We just need to be able to create more of them.  Part of the reward at work, comes from interacting with others.  This is something that I don't do a lot of on my own.  But, that is starting to change.  The tides are starting to turn.  Not that I see myself as ever being extrovertive.  But, there is no reason to be as much of an introvert as I have been for so long.  What is familiar is not necessarily good.  It may be or may not be depending on what we make of it.  We create our own reality, here as well as everywhere else.  No, not all of this occurs consciously, but much of it is controlled consciously by what we believe and what we know.  What about those who are unaware of what they believe?  Clearly, they are without a clue.  Though, in their ignorance may be a bliss that is absent to someone who is more conscious.  The goal is not necessarily to live consciously.  There are many things that we can do automatically, once we develop the appropriate abilities.  Until then, we may have to apply attention and intention.

When will we realize that our will is spirits will for us?  That is indeed a powerful realization.  And, if we have chosen to resign our will to the will of spirit?  Then that is spirits will for us so long as that is our experience.  It is not a struggle.  It is not a matter of one versus the other.  That is not how spirit works in our lives.  She expresses through us to the degree that we allow her to.  She takes everything that she is freely given.  She uses everything as well, primarily in service to those in need.  And, all are in need to some degree.  Only the severity and the types of needs vary, not the needs themselves.  This will change when we eliminate the concept of need via the fair distribution of the abundance that is created through us.  What makes us think that what is done through us is ours ... that we somehow own it?  This is far from the case.  This is what establishes the differences, the walls and the barriers between us.  From one vantage point, differences are very good ... so long as we don't make different than into better than.  No one is better than anyone else.  Though we all have our unique abilities and talents.

In general, people try to do the best they can under the circumstances in which they find themselves.  This is absolute, there are no exceptions.  Hmm ... are there really any absolutes?  That seems to be questionable in and of itself.  We live in a world of relativity.  Where do we find absolutes on which to hang our consciousness?  One answer that comes to mind is:  in the sounds of silence.  I don't really know where that came from, but it sent a shiver through my body.

Overall, life is good.  It could be better, but it could also be far worse.  I continue to take each day one day at a time, not really knowing what I will be doing from one day to the next.  I've been doing that for years.  It has become a way of being for me, one that is all too comfortable perhaps.  Maybe it is time to shake things up and do things differently for awhile.  How much and how differently are important.  At this point, it seems that a major change is in order.  I'm tired of being tired.  I'm tired of being bored.  I'm tired of not having the opportunity to live life to the fullest.  Hmm ... but that is not true.  We all have the opportunity to do this.  It is a matter of what we choose to do.  Any limits we have to our expression and our experience are of our own making.  This is always the case, regardless of any apparent evidence to the contrary.    It seems that I've not only accepted limits imposed on me by others, but I've created limits of my own free will as well.  These have resulted in conditions that I do not chose to tolerate.  Spirit, however, can tolerate everything.

I AM THAT I AM THAT YOU ARE!   Be Happy and Create Well!

LOVE,

Wayne
