“The Sun Never Says”
Hafiz
translated by Daniel Ladinsky
Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,
“You owe
Me.”
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky. |

everything is lining up so perfectly right and i've started making good (finally!) decisions for myself again. Adam told me about this church called "unity" a few blocks away from the house so while he was a work i decided to take a walk in the morning air and see what they were all about. once things got rolling i was astonished! i could not have asked for a more perfect sermon from a more perfect speaker. reverend jamie sanders spoke directly to my heart. he spoke about treating the people around us with nothing but love and kindness and projecting positive energy and so much more. we even had a meditation break to catch the body, mind, and spirit up with each other. i can't wait to go back next week! the whole thing made me miss lexi soo much, lexi if you are reading this: i love you and i miss having that spiritual connection with you and now i wish more than ever that you were here to hold my hand through this!

reality is an illusion, what you were taught in school is not always true, and there are greater things inside of us and above us at work. nature's order is not a group of random mutations.
life as we know it, whether a person believes themself to be "religious" or not, has been tainted by religion because everything is entangled and one thing affects another. we will never be free from traditions and ancient beliefs because everyone will have a belief system set up, which are affected by the past and one's surroundings, so many people find it difficult to look at anything completely objectively, even the ones that are free from the guilt of sin.
then i started to think about our creator, it seems to me as if he(/she/it) himself is an almighty scientist and this universe is perhaps his greatest experiment. with so many people constantly beginning and ending, why should this large creator care if humans decide to offend this god? he does not seem to interfere much, it seems like he just observes for the most part. it is human nature to be curious and skeptical. why should we have to overcome what is natural? why should we feel as if we need to live with guilt for not choosing one of the many religions of the world? what makes one better than the other? why should we be condemned for only acting on our what our consciousness tells us. what is wrong with thinking for yourself? so think, think, think! why are we here? what is our purpose? what is the meaning of it all? these are important questions. only you can come up with those answers, because it is your reality after all, not your parent's, not your friends', and not jesus's.
another thing i learned: our conscious actually affects reality but it is often unknown because people have built up a superficial perception of reality. our brains, just like the the network of the universe, is made of levels of atoms. therefore i believe that we have many levels of consciousness. if we open up to a higher level of consciousness then we could probably directly affect one another and objects with our minds, because as i mentioned before, all electrons are somewhat entangled, meaning they are directly connected to one another. this also pertains to the theory that, even though we are isolated in our own minds, we are all one. don't leave me now.
entanglement is really interesting. you see, back when the universe was a ball of compressed matter(i believe this or something like it to be most probable but of course everyone has their own beliefs) all electrons were entangled and guess what? even though the mass has expanded and become different organisms, they are still made from the same stuff they were made of trillions of years ago and we are still entangled. we are literally connected to everything, same atoms, different genetic make up.
the weirdest thing that i saw was that electrons behave as waves do when they are not being observed yet when observed, they behave as normal particles that take up mass. they decided to change their pattern! i think this means that even atoms have some form of consciousness. what the heck, how are they keeping a lid on this stuff?
did you know that atoms are nearly hollow? and no atoms actually touch, the electrons bounce off each other on impact(think of a basketball meeting pavement), therefore, there is a lot of unused space in everything and we are never really touching anything. also, it is theorized that this space contains an unlimited amount of energy. could it be that portals through space and time is POSSIBLE?
to be continued.
thoughts? comments? opinions? i want to know what you think! |
