Know Thyself
:: 2008 ::
This
year has already
started off on an exciting note. Positive vibrations flood
into my life from all around. I believe this can only happen by being
humble and recognizing that we are not the center of the universe.
We do not know all. Everything around us is
important; and we are just one grain of sand in the many important
grains that make up the beach of our existence, and in particular, our
universe.
For many centuries, people have fought wars, erroneously believing that ownership is a real phenomenon. They want to own the world, because they are greater than it and above everything in it. I believe, however, that ownership of anything is an implausible notion that will continue to guide us down the path to incessant unrest. For well over a decade, I've discarded the notion that humans are more special than anything else in the world--this world and all other possible worlds. My ability to comfortably adapt to this has allowed for a much freer flow of positive spiritual vibrations.
This year brought with it many exciting experiences and a host of new information to add to my knowledge base. With each new puzzle piece in the puzzle of life, I feel the shackles of the past lift away, unburdening my soul. I've always been a fairly happy person, but now, I also feel free. This combination further opens the door of my consciousness, letting in a form of light even brighter than the sun. This light is not blinding, but illuminating. It illuminates the core of me. It allows me to see beyond the surface of my brothers' and sisters' souls, and touch that place within us all that we often never share with others. It is that true place, that place we've been taught to hide from the world, because it is too honest, too real.
I invite all who cross my path to join me in learning about self.
Know thyself. This saying, carved above numerous passageways in ancient Egyptian buildings not leveled to dust by time, speaks of what was important to a people. These people knew that the knowledge of self was integral for a healthy mind and a healthy society. They knew it was the road to vibrating on a higher spiritual level.
If you do not know you, or are not being your whole self today, then are you truly living? Know thyself...and all things will be revealed. The universe will then open up to you and engorge you to satisfaction with all you will ever need to live a life of greatness. That greatness will become infectious, inviting the great spirit of reciprocity. This is what will connect us--reciprocity.
Many more things are now being placed at my feet. I will take what I need, and share the rest. We are here only for a short time, let's make it meaningful.

Journal

You are welcome to visit my journal. It consists of my thoughts on various things centered around spirit, with a few sidebar conversations and moments of raw fun or quiet introspection (pittershawn's realm).
