Courage to face Uncertainty

What happens when we embrace the truth that we don't know?

What happens when you allow reality and everything about it, to be as it is, without expectation, without definition?

Reality is sometimes naked in its own mystery. Can you trust what is enough to let it be?

Be Hopeless, Be Fearless.

We live in interesting times. A lot of people are talking about 2012, change, revolution, doomsday. Most people fall into one of two groups: those expressing hope for the situation and those expressing fear.

Mind and Thoughts

Mind is useful. By discriminating between different things, it can create paths of action. Mind can bring something subtle and fuzzy to the forefront of awareness. It can clarify what seems to be unclear. Mind is specific, so it can be very practical. It can play with concepts and ease communication.

The Ancestors

Our ancestors are the stars. asteroids, the sun, the comets, the microbes, the apes, and all the people that came before us, to bring the here and now to reality.

There is a wisdom in nature that allowed for us to become, without effort, striving or force.

Nostalgia

I see pictures from before I was born, and feel a deep longing nostalgia. People on beaches in the Summers of the 1970's. What does this have to do with the NOW? Everything? Something? Nothing?

The past is where we are from. Its the source, just as the source is the silence in the now. Just as the big bang made now, 1974 made now, just as 1682 made now. Just as a few seconds ago made now.

Get outa yer heads!

People have been thinkin' bout stuff for quite a while with little result, not feeling much better.

Maybe we can't think our way out of our problems.

What if we got out of our heads and into our hearts?

Trust

I've not seen the end all be all of all things, I've not yet seen the truth that Buddha or the Enlightened ones have seen.

Wanna Evolve?

What do you want to evolve into? Isn't everything evolving anyways, on its own? Why so much effort?!

Are you serious? Are you honest? What motivates you to want to evolve?

What is this? Who are you? What is happening?

Look.
