You pass through frigid air on your way to a hot tub. You brace yourself and bear the cold knowing it is temporary and will be followed by something far more pleasant. This is a microcosm of the macrocosmic cycles of life: pleasantness followed by unpleasantness followed by … you get the flow. But what if you do not brace yourself? What if you do not label things pleasant vs. unpleasant but come to recognize it all as LIFE? Do not purposefully seek out that which you might label unpleasant, but neither need you resist or push away the moments that make up the fullness of LIFE. There are many insights to be gained in all moments. Dive in.
You are so very loved.
Labelling pleasantries and/unpleasantness are very personal opinions, regardless how many do or dont agree with you. Bottom line – this labeling proclivity so heavily underway is an ego/egos amassing excuses.
Saying “It may be difficult for ego to let go “… is an understatement for most of us. But so what? Was that ever the bigger picture point? No. You and your ego are all part of the bigger picture. But it is your soul (not our egos) that connects us all to the greater spirit, thereby the greater view for the good of us all. The One that united us in the first place is also the One Whose Spirit reflects the good in and of us all… our souls… …not just the ‘me’ certainly not just my ego
LIFE will never BE just “I” ever again once LIFE understood that. That was as true even for Adam as it is for each and all of us.
