...if it wasnt for the fact that we have no idea where we come from or where we go after we die. We don't even know why we die!!! We can say that it's because we get old or sick...but why, beyond that? I think ego is the downfall of man, but why do we have an ego at all? It's not ONLY because we think the WORLD of ourselves, but its because without a clear answer, we can OWN the highest answer. In reality, we only know how things work, but not why. We have suspicions and faiths, but no clear answer. No APPARENT answer, anyways. If there is a place called "heaven", we might only understand it by strolling through this place first. Why and how we're born into certain times and places, don't know (of course), BUT some people believe, that in order to obtain "heaven" you must have a mind like a child....because intelligence (Adam and Eve's Apple) is supposed to be our sin. That personally, doesnt "click" with me. The fact that I can write and think and love (some love stemming from thought and appreciation), takes intelligence. Can I do those things without the "ego" though? Maybe, but there first needs to be an answer to all things..then I just work within them, through them, and create around them. "Create"...the word create is funny. What do we really create? Everything stems from everything else..even imagination. Some people are born with an active, ambitious mind; some patient and analytical. Is it really ours though? And if it turns out that it isnt ( that we are a bunch of robots), would you or I still want it? Maybe the fact that we don't know, is our gift. So jealousy and all the negative emotions that cause a sting inside of us, should just be put down because in reality...there is a possiblity that we could be fighting over something that is not really there. |

All those intangibles... Ego, Hate, Jealousy. Not things, not taste, no scent, nothing tangible... so why do they feel so real? They stem from our free will... supposedly our gift, yet also a curse, that's the lesson I feel, to overcome the need to control by giving rein to the unconditional Love we feel when we look in a baby's eyes, when we see an animal in need and when we gaze into a mirror and smaile at the beautiful face looking back at us. It's easier to do that hating or gaining control... so why do we turn from it? For me it's because one is outer... visible and the other, introspective, less visible to others, yet ultimately more so. We just have to keep on the path.
Great food for thoughts here hun xxtantricxx mwaaah!
