Adam's Aspects

Text Box: My road to the Light was bumpy and up the hill most of the time, or so it seemed.
 
It was just typical stuff in my way, like pride, fear, blaming my childhood, my mother and anyone who came to mind. And most of all, TRYING to take care of daily business, which expanded well into the future with unpaid bills, dreams which were never realized, and in a nutshell, misery of navigating in the total fog.
 
God was listening to everyone but me. 
And I believed that I had only myself to BLAME for it. 
One does not blame God. 
I have tried that, many times. It didn’t work.
 
Bottom line was, I had a full time job just to survive misery.
No, don’t get me wrong, I was searching for Light for as long as I can remember. 
But I was searching in all the wrong places. 
 
...Or maybe not...
 
Text Box: Just as I was ready to cash in, (like many times before), new revelations popped out. This time though, SERIOUSLY  NEW.  
 
Overnight, I realized one thing:  all the struggle in the world will not take me anywhere. I don’t want to know where I am going. Or how do I get “there”, if anywhere. Suddenly I had only one desire -- to be ALIVE. And ONE can be alive only when ONE realizes that “later” exists just in our imagination. 
“Later” is pure illusion.
 
The word “Later” has no meaning at all in the reality of living in the NOW. 
And that is ALL we have: Now. 


Text Box: Before the revelation I was barely functioning on a ‘I’ll do that later’, ‘pay them later’, ‘worry about stuff later’ routine. “Later” became my Modus-Operandi; my savior. But things changed when I gave up control of my Life. 
 
Think for a moment about these words “Give-Up”. 
 
To GIVE doesn’t mean “to keep”, “to hold down,” or “negotiate a little”. 
To give something means to no longer have ANY attachment to it. 
It means to SURRENDER.
 
UP means not “out”; not “in”, not “down” or “self”. UP means Up.
 
Therefore, GIVE UP means to surrender to a higher level. 
In my case the only higher level is the Creator. Universe. I AM- if you wish.
I wish.
 
I was only kidding myself (and everyone around me), that I had control over my life. 
But the only control I had was to make sure that I will attempt to repair what I had broken in the first place, by living an illusion of having control of my life. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Text Box: Life is a FLOW, a Harmonious flow.
It is a FORCE which has a Perfect Operating System, a Superb Processor and a Huge Memory.
Life is the Ultimate Perpetual Motion. 
 
The Universe doesn’t rely on our Screwdrivers, Pliers, Silicon Valleys, and Engineers. It works just fine without rebuilding, thank you very much.
 
God never said, “Go and do what you WANT,  plan your next move, create schemes, intrigues, betrayals and wars. --And when you fail, just pull yourself back up by the boot straps. I will be watching you from above (UP). Have YOUR freedom, you Silly Con”. 
 
Instead God said : “Be Still, and know that I AM God” (God=Greatest Operating Designer = Glorious Omnipotent Divinity)
 
And then God continued:
“You are a  ONE bit of RAM in this Superb Computer called UNIVERSE. 
It is NOT Your job to attempt to change its Operating System from within. 
Just KNOW, that You are connected. You BELONG. Sit back and relax. You are I AM”. 
 
This time I heard the message. 
My life has turned around. I am filled with a Peace, Joy and Love. 
I’m experiencing Love from everything (ALL) around me. 
I have no worries. 
And most of all, I don’t have to think that I’ll die some day “later” or “sooner”. 
I have already done so, “...for a man must die to be born again...” 
In my case it happened EFFORT-LESSLY. It take only half a century.
 
Enjoy, since you lasted this long.
                                                                 
 
Adam.
