    Quote Posted by O Donna (here)
    Ignorance is a gift/ an opportunity to see things in a whole new light.
    Why do children always see the world in a magical way? Because they see everything with new eyes, not with the burden of remembering of all this, been there, done that. Even though ignorance isn't bliss, it too exists for a reason. We choose to forget all of this always on this level so we can experience it all "anew" once and once again.

    Ultimately we haven't only chosen to forget the personalities we were before, we have chosen to forget that we are the totality of it all, that we are IT. Tat tvam asi, you are IT. The Creator, even if only a particle of that. Yet that particle contains it all in you, because deep down that's what who you and I are as ourSelves. We are only now participating in this theatre play and it's so damn riveting because the stakes seem to be so high too. We're all in.

    Memory is the closest I've ever come to seeing an 'actual' ghost.
    Never seen a 'Hollywood' type ghost in present reality.









    Side note: I believe one of my posts became a ghost, seems the whole thread was deleted in which it was on. A funky thread, that is true, but it did remind me that cryptography is in use on the net in plain sight.

    May health and strength be in abundance for all in the face of '22.






    Your path is paved with wonder & the miraculous every single moment.
    May it be the catalyst that lifts you to ever new heights.





    Quote May the road rise up to meet you.
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face;
    the rains fall soft upon your fields
    and until we meet again,
    may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

    (traditional gaelic blessing)

    Self-conscious(ness) is a triumph of spirit.

    You were not going to sit back on those laurels forever; there are bigger fish to fry.
    You are in the big leagues now.
    The past is the past.



    Let’s go off-roading shall we? You know, the road-less traveled.



    Yes it will be bumpy and yes, some bad choices made but who remembers going this exact way before?

    Hindsight is 20-20.



    This is where being able to laugh at yourself comes in handily.

    Disney rides are fun but soon become pattern and pattern, lifeless. The shadow of the infinite affords the opportunity to try something new.

    Hats off to every type of adventurer out there! BRAVO!





    Brave things, done every day/ moment that cameras have not and cannot capture. This does not diminish the awe.

    How to explained? Apples to oranges? Analogy? Close…..but….ummmmmm….no.

    From inner peace to inner peace.

    Namaste

    All war comes from the belief of being "separate". Peace comes from within, anahata.

    "I prayed for change,
    so I changed my mind.
    I prayed for guidance
    and learned to trust myself.
    I prayed for happiness
    and realized I am not my ego.
    I prayed for peace
    and learned to accept others unconditionally.
    I prayed for abundance and
    realized my doubt kept it out.
    I prayed for wealth
    and realized it was my health.
    I prayed for a miracle
    and realized I am the miracle.
    I prayed for a soul mate
    and realized I am the one.
    I prayed for Love
    and realized it is always knocking,
    but I have to allow it in."

    ~ Rumi

    Quote “What I want is to represent reality on the one hand, and on the other to stylize it into art…I invent the character of a novelist, whom I make my central figure; and the subject of the book…is just that very struggle between what reality offers him and what he desires to make of it.”

    -- The Counterfeiters by Gide, Andre, the character Edouard, who happens to be a novelist


    When fiction is created to reflect reality – are we supposed to feel fictional as well?
