Simple

I had the desire to write this comment in response to Ashiya's blog post - I've read it before on her private one. I think I want attention again - lol. I hope she approves of my comment :P

The most difficult thing to understand is that life is really simple.

We have a tendency of making things a lot more complicated.

The ego-mind, the personality, tells us that simple things are somehow devalued.

The intellect wants to make things juicy.

To make someone or something less than or more than. Instead of appreciating that all things are from the same Source, if perceptively different.

For example, we prefer the use of complicated words and phrases (okay, I do! :P) to make what we are saying or what we are listening to seem more profound. More valid, more legitimate, more true.

Everything is as it is. C'est tout.

I can't wait for the day I have raised my consciousness of the truth to the level that I'll be able to eat an apple and drink only water and that will be a divine feast for me.

For the day when I'll get back to sleeping on a bare floor and have the best rest I've had.

For the day when people will just be in my presence and no words will need be said to communicate our truths and that we can just see the other person's true essence shine bright.

For the day when I realise that I, and every single sentient being on this earth, is always connected to Allah and as such, cannot help but be Divine; spiritual beings having a human experience.

Affirmation: I am who I am, I am where I am, with what I have. I release all that within and without that is not truly my true essence. I am ready to embrace the truth of Who I Truly Am.

"O my Allah, the honour of being Your servant is sufficient.

I am proud of the fact that You are my Lord.
You are just as I want, so make me just as You like me to be."
~ Imam Ali (a.s.)

Allah, Divinity, and our True Spirit, is clear, crystal, pure.

Simple.

I just checked my library account - as usual, didn't keep on top of things, now have more library fines. Well, that's done. I am now going to the library to return all the books.

Except the It's Just a Date one. Just in case I still need it.

The parents

Your Type Four EnneaThought for January 13th— Reflect on your childhood today. As a child, did you believe you were not like your parents? Did you feel that you were not "seen" by your parents and that you did not connect sufficiently with your parents? As an adult, what does this have to do with you now? (The Wisdom of the Enneagram, 182) As I've said myriad times before, these things just slap me in the face with a wet fish most days. I suppose it makes sense that I should send Reiki healing to my relationships with my father and my mother. Haven't really done that for ages. It's too hard sometimes, I choose to ignore and avoid dealing with them mainly because these are the two people I've been connected with since birth. A lot of effort is required in order to 'let things slide'. Living with my dad is hell, and I'm co-creating it on purpose, as part of my desire to annoy, to hurt him the way he hurts me. My mum, well, I guess we'...

Je dois écrire

Je dois écrire . L'ironie est que quand j'avais le temps, je na'i pu pas fair rien . Doesn't matter, I have to write. I keep listening to poets like Keane and Travis and Darren Hayes and I'm here, with the creativity finally bursting forth again, and what's more, the joie de vivre bursting through and I'm not writing and I'm not taking pictures and I'm doing bloody cashier work at Oxfam. I am a swan, I am a seagull that glides and glides. I am the tree, the squirrel. Words are all I have to make myself different from you lot. To make myself lighter, somewhat more worthy. How low is my self esteem that I still believe those falsehoods. I just cannot find people on my wave length. It means I never shall. Or I do and because of my skin colour or because I am behind the Oxfam counter, or because I am in Morden, or London, or the UK, I shall never know. An opera singer. A person who wants to wear kurtis but is scared of going into a desi shop i...

Judgement

Tarot Card Interpretation & Meaning - (20) Judgment Introduction: Judgment can be a card about jumping to conclusions, decisions and judgments. which are too hastily made. If you are prone to such things, this is a clear signal to slow down and give things more thought and to give people "more chances."
