Hey,
that's my boy Alex! All three! Take a glance and tell me which
one of the three is larger. The answer...none of them. Alex,
Alex and Alex are all the same size.
The
circumstances surrounding them make them appear different
than they really are.
Life.
We're seeing things as what we think they are, but
they're not! And our illusion keeps us clogged! We somehow
think that to keep love we grab
tight. But that only makes it exit stage right faster!
And what we think we can escape
by running away from actually sticks follows us closer. What
we chase alludes us, what we resist only gives it more power
and the hurrier we go the behinder we seem to get! Holy cow!
Is life a trick?
What
is life? Really. Is life all the cars and the roads and the
food and the trees and the money and the sea shells and popcorn
poppers (things visible)? Or is it the love and the laughter
and the sadness and the moment you stop running and come to
peace with yourself (things unseen)? Hence life's biggest
illusion.
The
experience of life is different for each of us. And I certainly
don't have the answer for you. I just have an idea where the
pointer is. The illusion of life is we think that
what's real is what we can touch and feel and see and smell.
But those are only temporal. Have you noticed that the things
visible to the eye seem to never hold our happiness, yet many
of us spend a lifetime trying to squeeze our joy from them?
Kind of insane, huh?
"Yeah
but I sure love driving my Ferrari".
I'm
sure you do and it's not the car that you're likin' as much
as it is the FEELING, the EXPERIENCE OF YOURSELF IN THE CAR.
That's what lights you up...YOU
LIKING YOU in that moment. Stay with me! I haven't lost
it! There's a strong gain to hearing this.
