If you observe this
cosmicplay
closely without bias, without prejudice, without preference, and even
(if possible) without judgement, you'll notice
Life itself
is turning out all by itself. Yes it sometimes follows our
script. But mostly it turns out exactly the way it turns out and
exactly the way it doesn't ie it turns out the way it's been turning
out throughout the millennia all by itself.
Furthermore if you look closely without bias, without prejudice,
without preference, and even (if possible) without judgement, you'll
notice the way
Life itself
turns out all by itself,
works!
And what's galling for control freaks like us, is neither our input nor
our approval are required for
Life itself
to turn out the way it turns out, and
work.
If you have any doubt whatsoever that your input and your
approval aren't required for
Life itself
to turn out the way it turns out and
work,
go outside on a
moonlit
night and address your concerns to the
stars.
Tell them you have important ideas about how
Life itselfshould
turn out, which you demand be instated toot sweet. Notice the
response. If you're paying
attention,
what'll become abundantly
clear
is you have no say whatsoever in how
Life itself
turns out. Zippo. Zero. Nada.
Now against that
background
(if you will), what say we do have, comes from our ability
to invent possibilities for our own lives. You and I are enabled to
create
the
contexts
from which we live our lives. We're imbued with this
power.
It's what makes us uniquely
human.
And it's not that some of us have this
power,
and some of us don't have it. The notion that some of us are (quote
unquote) born this way is at worst a myth, and at best
naïve.
Life itself
doesn't have favorites. In reality, there are no "chosen people"
- or (that said) we're all chosen people. The notion that
"Life itselfloves
me" (ie more than the
guystandingnext
to me?) is naïve. No one is special - or (that said) we're all
special. The impact is
"Life itselfloves
me" is naïve as a
belief system,
yet it has a lot of
poweras a
createdcontext.
Let me elaborate.
Taking these three ideas together as one seamless whole (one, the idea
that life turns out exactly the way it turns out and exactly the way it
doesn't ie it turns out the way it's been turning out throughout the
millennia all by itself; two, the idea that
Life works;
and three, the idea that you and I are
empowered
to
createcontexts
like
"Life itselfloves
me" from which to live our lives) brings our
createdcontexts
to bear on
Life itself.
And it's this confluence which has the possibility of starting
something truly great. No, it's arguably the only thing
which has the possibility of starting anything truly
great.
