I just found this while cleaning up my computer. I wrote this many years ago. I found today it was an important piece of my growth and subsequent progress. It is actually quite a long narrative so I have broken it up into smaller parts. Stay tuned for the rest of the series.
I am compelled to write; to somehow try to explain that which I know internally, in the very core of my being as truth. I am not the only one that has reached this same conclusion, nor will I be the last.
I hope you will be the next.
Why Am I? Not Who because that can only be answered AFTER the Why!
Let us begin in the middle, for from that point the past and future are both within sight. The middle being basically where we all stand now.
Right now.
That is the other important point to the middle, the now. That is all there really is! Translated that means it is the only time upon which we can exert an influence. The same truth applies to who.
Now is the answer to when and I, or myself only, is the truth of who. Where is not important because the actual place that changes happen universally is inside your soul, your consciousness or whatever you call that spark of life that makes you uniquely you.
I expect to jump off on a number of tangents here and there that may seem unrelated, but really are not. The first chance to do so appears right here.
I want to comment on your individuality, your uniqueness and what that means. It is certainly an accepted knowledge that ‘belonging’ to some group is the goal. It is certainly expressed in many different ways, but still becomes a ‘grouping’. The universe itself shuns the grouping of identity at this level. This may seem contradictory but in fact it is the reason for our uniqueness.
We are like an individual cell of a larger organism. It is through the cooperation of all of the independent entities that the larger organism can function properly. So it is up and down the scale, be it a large organism like the galaxy, or a small organism like our own body.
Our body doesn’t want every cell to be just like our skin cells! It NEEDS the individuality of each system to cooperate with the rest seamlessly for optimum performance.
This seems so plain, so obvious, yet so over looked.
BE UNIQUE! BE JUST YOU! There cannot be anything unattractive or wrong about you, you are just different, as you ought to be!
It is my opinion that the troubles in our lives stem from this very basic foundation. It is a belief somehow that we should be like others. I think it is ingrained into us as a form of hypnosis or programming from birth.
If we are independent, and comfortable being so, we are a threat to those who seek to control us. Ask yourself : How much time is really invested in learning who we are really as compared to time invested looking or acting like everyone else?
