THE CONSTANTS IN MY LIFE
CONSTANTS
DO NOT CHANGE; Or do they?
There
was a time I would've answered this infallibly so, No, constants
don't change! Not so today, after nearly 65 years on Earth I don't
feel sure of anything any more. My cat was a singular constant in my
daily life, and my garden too, the cat is gone and a change is forced
upon me while I witness my garden suffer. Consider the cat and the
garden parable stuff of life, then find your own constant that
changed forcing you to accept or reject the results, work with it or
moan and complain about how unfair life was to do that to you! Who
cares!
Change
is the only Constant in life, that seems to fit more easily to our
actual life experiences in the long run. How we adapt to each change
as they come about seem to change as well. Must I accept the awesome
responsibility of being A constant in someone else's life? Is
that a noble task of selfless service to the Family of Man? Because
let's be clear, a disciplined path of forward motion into any kind of
evolution (mental, physical, spiritual) must by nature create better
versions of me under any circumstance! Not looking for perfection,
and neither settling for mediocrity is a wise man's path.
Too many fools, not enough wise men!
Be
so ever watchful of all patterns of your life children, some
enhancing, some hindering, all necessary for the road to the
formlessness and reunion. My own morning patterns are wonderfully
life enhancing, but the life patterns of the nights, which become
character building destiny making stuff of our lives, oh that's where
my battle is, with the non-self self who thinks he is entitled, after
a life of waiting for the "golden years" to begin!
If
we are truly coauthors of our lives destiny, and we collectively
affect that which makes for the greater patterns of our humanity's
choices in action, what does the state of our humanity today say to
the other coauthor of our lives destiny? Have we all gone madly
selfish and crawled into our comfort zones hoping the humanity's
problems in getting along will somehow work itself out? Really? Is
this to be our doom as a race of beings who was on Earth a while?
In
my garden I have no problem deciding what live plant to uproot and
destroy, and which ones to keep. I know of novice gardeners who
agonize over each lost plant during thinning out process of the
season! Addiction seems to be better described as any life pattern
(though it be destructive) which we seem not willing to do without.
In the process of thinning out the patterns of our lives, all of
which took many years to develop and keep alive in our minds, We grow
and mature to give awesome fruits, if, we are paying any attention to the constants that change and changes that become constants!
IN
GRATITUDE LOVE SEEMS TO FIND A WAY INTO OUR HEARTS, SO WE LOOK FOR
MORE THINGS TO BE GRATEFUL ABOUT DAILY AND KEEP IN MOTION,
and
that's all i know !
ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY
