Into the Light

Happiness is like a cat, If you try to coax it or call it, it will avoid you; it will never come. But if you pay no attention to it and go about your business, you’ll find it rubbing against your legs and jumping into your lap. – William Bennett

Do you really want to see Angels? Upgrade your thoughts. It is as easy as that. Hard to believe it could really be that simple but it is. And the beautiful thing about all of the spiritual energy that we can access is there is so little effort required to engage it.

That said, it requires a bit of will power to get out of the soap opera of the daily drama and lock step social grind to enter into the magical kingdom of love, light, angels, fairies and spirit guardians. One has to desire to hold focus on the conscious creation of a better mind set. One must allow for higher thoughts and perfect solutions beyond imagining. Possibilities are endless.

Do your work and you will be rewarded. The best thing about jumping to conclusions and leaps of faith? One has the potential to upgrade. If and when you don’t like the conclusions you end up with or the math seems to add up in the wrong direction, shift your focus and put your own spin on it. Where can you tweak the script to improve your lot? How can you shift your belief or your behavior to change the outcome for the better?

NO one else needs to change. YOU DO and that changes the scenario entirely. The thing you wanted to change may not exist when you come at it from that point and thus, no need to change the external when you shift yourself.

Go back and add your math again in a few minutes or a few days. You can shift the world with a thought. You can shift yourself with a breath. Blow out the candles and celebrate the light in you. We are born to glow in the dark. When you discover that inner light, the door to infinity opens.

Lose fear and play ball. The door is open.

Life – the Magical, Mystery Tour

If you aren’t in over your head, how do you know how tall you are? – T. S. Eliot

Life begins in Mystery and ends in Wonder. Answers are not the end – rather stepping stones – from one plane of belief to the next. I cannot explain my nightlight. It happens and I am in awe. I suspect there might be less awe if there were an explanation.

Then again, I am not sure there is any explanation I will accept, no matter how great the mind. After all, Stephen Hawking stuck by one explanation for 30 years until struck with a severe health crisis (when many thought he might be ready to check out), from which he recovered and reemerged with a shift in his logic that offered a new explanation to go around the first.

What creates this activity with my nightlight? How can it happen day in and day out with no will on my part? What is it? Where does it come from? How am I connected with it? Where did it go before here? Why is it here? Who is it? What is the purpose? I have my own answers for all these questions. It may take another 30 years for me to determine whether I am right… Maybe it isn’t about being right. 

What I do know? It is my puzzle. Therefore, I am up to the challenge.

We are here to explore. If there were no magic or mystery, there would be nothing to show up for…and no way for us to appear…out of the ether into a physical form.

Here we are, contemplating illumination from the vantage point of the lampshade. Answers depend upon where one directs his focus, the objects being illuminated or the source.

Seems the only answers we have been able to discern are those that leave us stuck splattered like a bug on the window of infinity. Maybe we are trying too hard. Can we decrease the speed enough to stop when our nose is merely pressed against the pane? Are we trying to morph time, gravity, or light?

Certainly, the view is awesome – until you hit that darn glass…
