Skeletons Scare Minds

Welcome back people.  So you are still with us?  What do I mean?  You could have died since the last article.  Then you wouldn’t give a shit about the TV news anymore.  But oh well, let’s pretend for a moment…..no let’s not.  Isn’t that what is going so wrong?  Pretending that things aren’t so…  It baffles me how people chop reality into pieces and then act like only a few of them exist.  

You can swoop around and around the truth, coming to it in so many ways.  Superimposing concepts on to what you see doesn’t change it intrinsically. Truth remains as it is.  It is you who are distorted.  It is your mind coloring everything with clumps of conclusions.  So many minds in closets of darkness...  Maybe those skeletons will finally scare them out.

Driving forward, running from the past, we hope the arms of our precious future will take the pain away.  Then one day we arrive at the location we prayed we’d come to and the ground starts sinking like quicksand.  Halfway into the hole, you cry out, “I’ll do anything, just give me another chance!”  For some reason the dirt pukes you up, you wipe yourself off and try again.

Now, open and learn.  Lo, to ye who arrives.  Fluidity in the present is the luxury we are missing.  This is not some metaphysical hooey unless interpreted by a hooey head.  I’m tired of messing around.  Let’s get the job done. (Someone offstage yells, “Over here!  Over here!”)  Would you please tell them that you are going to Love yourself first this time?

If they come back, tell them that you have moved.  It won’t be a lie if you are alive.  Sharing and empathy come after you can smile at the mirror.  Feeling is just as important as thinking.  Remind the men because sometimes they think they are too tough; someday we will look back and label them ‘behind the times’.  It is powerful and fulfilling to open your heart.  Try it.
