On the one matter is the reality of actuality and on
the other is our creative imagination that gives to us the freedom to many believe
in things unknown and unproven. The decision and choice is ours to have reason
to hope and believe and have faith in what we want to believe. Though many Angels may protect us demons
constantly attack our mind with thoughts and in life attack our very existence
with random chance and random events that bring situation and circumstance to
the forefront of our survival. They challenge the roll of the dice and the draw
of the card, but the power of thought provoking spiritual warfare is in our
human nature.
Sure we have indifference to opinion, but remember
opinion is infinitely debatable and because we have the freedom of thought
sometimes our thoughts recognize differences of opinion are part of each of our
personalities and character. You have to believe in something even if you have
to believe in yourself to move on with time and age comes to you with wisdom
and experience, along with random chance and situations, and conditions so give
me the strength to accept the things I cannot change and change the things I can
and the wisdom to know the difference, and when I look into a mirror I recognize
change starts with me and then the world around me and inside me will change;
like nature, change is one constant element of life we can believe in and
happens in a parsec of a moment without notice.
Living on the edge is challenging, pushing the
envelope to the extreme balancing it on the close edge of the table keeping it
from falling to the floor. But maybe the envelope cannot be pushed further than
the imaginary limits we put on it? Perhaps there are no limits, but gravity
cannot be denied unless you live in space where zero g’s are just fine with me.
Somewhere between the top of the water and the sandy bottom of the ocean I balance
myself scuba diving in zero g conditions
and focus just on the sound of my breathing and heartbeat. All the while
keeping the original thought my mind gives its attention to- life surrounds me
and goes on inside me and both realities exist simultaneously.
Remember an idea can be easily lost if not written
down and there is more to reading than just the words; it’s the words that have
meaning and we are given to thought provoking ideas when we read or even write;
a territory of no man’s land uninhabitable except in our imagination, and after
the power of a thought overwhelms us more thoughts arrive before we can think
further and our mind races to keep pace with even our own thoughts. We have to
create an openness or clearing space to negotiate all our thoughts and consider
them and weigh their worth and value. We must consider our mindset and how we
negotiate the way we think because it takes a certain way of thinking to
realize the power of thought.
In brief we search for short term conclusions and deal
with them as need arises. We must regard the contemplative and meditative conclusions
we come to and the consequences they bring. We lead ourselves into the
complexities of the human philosophy. Life goes on without regard for time
because it is endless in the Golden Eternity and we are conscious except that we,
in our days are surrounded by our sleep. When you add it all up the tears and
pleasure are equal. Is it any wonder the monkey is confused? The interplay of
thought and argument for the present moment is reflected in the attitude we
have towards contemplative and meditative thinking; but we do get caught up in
the moment and decision is based on the worth and value of pleasure without
regard for consequence. And then we face head on with
With the consequences of our actions and reactions negotiating
or own desires spontaneously and thoughtless in the moment of choice and decision.
