"I've
got to stay busy. What am I worth if I don't?"
"Do"
is an activity.
It's
probably no mistake that we weren't named "human
doings". And even though our very name suggests
to us where life's goodies await us, few live
there. The state of Being...many seem to just
travel through on their hurried way to another
state while waving bye bye over their shoulders.
You've heard
it before...Those passersby who, on their way thru
the peaceful state of "being" are often
heard yelling over their shoulder:
"Be
still? Ha! There's no time for being still"
"I
can't be by myself"
"Silence
makes me nervous"
"I
can't look into your eyes comfortably"
"I
can't hear what you're telling me without thinking
about what I'm going to say"
Not allowing yourself to just BE
keeps you from being present with others. With yourself.
With life itself.
Everything that IS, lives in the
state of "being". And guess who's there!
YOU! Now, some of you just now went, "awwwwe",
while others of you thought "ICK" when
I said that. Some of you miss you while
others don't want to sit next to yourself!
The
state of Being. It's a great place to live! And
you even get to live next door to the Love's &
Peace's! What great neighbors they are!
