People write books-trying to understand. They say beautiful things, but it doesn’t change anything. It’s like having a garden that looks spectacular from a distance, but on close examination, every flower is made out of paper and every tree out of plastic. Now, there are advantages to this garden. You never have to water it. So you don’t ever have to cut it. It looks the same forever. The disadvantage? Flowers don’t bloom; spring never comes. Birds have no business being there. Bees never fly around in it. No nectar is collected and no flower has a beautiful aroma. The trees do not sway in the wind and even though it all looks pretty, it is static — static as in understand that an effort needs to be made every single day to be clear, to understand, to accept. To see and to feel what you and I have been given. From the heart. From the very basic being in each of us. That is why it is so important to have a living experience. Living. B r e a t h i n g . E x i s t i n g . Fe e l i n g . Thinking. Understanding. Knowing. That’s what’s real . We get used to being frustrated. We get used to being angry and upset. We get used to living in ignorance. And 99 percent of people accommodate and facilitate this. "Don’t worry about it; it’s okay.” What is okay? Is being lost okay? Is ignoring my own nature okay? Is being away from myself okay? Is not recognizing myself okay? And people will say, "That’s life. Good times happen; bad times happen. It’s all okay.” That’s why ever y one of us needs clarity so desperately
