Starting the Cold Engine

From the stall I had to start my engine cold.

With that, check those items that made driving a pleasant experience.  So I’ll admit; I digressed.

   In the world of wants; ours is not to obtain.  Let me say that in another way; we are inspired by our desire, but that is not a contract for getting.

Clearing it up a bit maybe even more; because it bears repeating, striving due to an interest to get from here-and-now to there-and-then. 

   What sparkles, attracts us, this is the simplicity of relationship as cause to our effect; and we have a lot attracting us.  Put every experience you ever had; from tying your shoe to the first kiss of autumn and you'll get where I'm going.  And that is true, we're going...on and on.  The desire to express how we feel is valid, and it couples with another irresistible desire to feel connected. Not so much BE connected by some external measure, but frankly that 'WE' feel the rush when WE convince ourselves we're understood; thereby connected.  That may be a fancy word for accepted, and if so then you may sense where all of this takes us...to beliefs.

Oh my!

   Some beliefs and values are shoveled into us before most have even mastered speech.  Most have been indoctrinated before developing even the slightest inkling of reasoning; that was intentional and by design.  I'd not say it’s a conspiracy so much as it being a ritual that foremost worked and it avoids complications that may arise with asking.  We're all for efficiency and others have decided that ours would be a 'yes' if we had all the facts like they do.  Taken to extremes (as is always the case) we're enslaved before we even realized that's our social and personal nature to try and control.

    We endeavor to harness the universe, so that means control the externals...be they raw materials or our fellow breathing brethren.  Be that as it may, these filters to belief are put into place to create an interpretation of existence.  Intentionally, as I’ve mentioned, the facts you are given to use in your process of decision are selective and, well, a bit...slanted and biased. 

   But that doesn't invalidate the process in the quest to obtain what is true.  You get to decide as best you can with what you have.  And in that moment of clarity agree...be that in Santa; the tooth fairy; or the fairness of social justice, you are validated by none other than God...who happens to be provided to you in the manner the adults around you see fit.  Not the God of creation, but the god of consciousness in which we are all part.  Within all of that noise of interpretation is the primary operational template: Creation is our business.  That's what life does, that's ALL that life is interested in.  Not quality, and not quantity; just more and more of life.  Even in destruction life is creating possibilities into a reality that is necessary for its success. We feel comfort with obtaining our goals. (comfort is another concept that is contagious, right up there with entitlement). The good news is; it is temporary. The not so fun news is that most, if not all, of your beliefs are also temporary and mostly false.  Most are designed to limit you for some lofty reason or another, but the fact remains that freedom is under siege and it has always been at battle with fear and safe on the opponent’s side...and they're friggin cunning and smart.

   The silent peace that we seek is not end of conflict, but the presence of freedom.  Know that in the silent absence of creativity, that you are not lacking, but in repose.  Energy gathers even without asking.  Because that is the nature of our physical experience.  Energy becomes matter, and matter dissolves back to its fundamental elements; then it is attracted to like kind energy and when it becomes dense, returns to matter once more (even light is matter...electrons...tiny matter that matters fast). 

Abandon the need to judge by any standards beyond what you can feel.

It’s your only best compass, and it is dedicated to serve you with or without contamination.  All of that thinking about, and knowledge obtained are examples of passage, but does not in any case mean it’s true.  Even if it were true once upon a time, now is new.

So

Dabble, as I am doing here. And look what you have?  Several hundred words that depict the glory of being naked, or being seen naked and giggle at the idea that we can be naughty without fear of punishment.

Now that's not a mandate to go running down the street without shoes...there's glass out there so be careful.  What it does suggest is to consider what it is you would like...and make your plans with the spirit of excitement without results to deem them worthy....we are here for such a very short time.  And when that period is over...whether you were well known or obscure; hero or villain...the ride still stops.  Breath deep now and create without thinking about creating...dabble...like you knew how to do it without being shown.
