Tales of a Double Virgo
Episode #52
wandering thru the desert
what if
life
was really a desert
and
as we walked along
each experience
was created by heat
and light
and perhaps our desire.
what if we were actually dropped
IN to a blank screen
and
our world around us
was our own creation.
if we can think it
it is possible.
truth, yes.
and as we wander
in the desert
alone
we decided a camel would be nice.
and so we were riding one….
and
with our weary legs resting
we noticed the dryness in our throat
looking down to find a glass of water in our hand.
everything that IS
was first a thought.
as we trek across the barren land
we seek shelter from the heat and the wind.
we look up to be surrounded by trees
sheltering our ride
offering relief. offering shade.
then
from the emptiness in our hearts
community is born
and
we find ourselves surrounded by others.
one moment we are a solo traveler
on foot
the next
we are surrounded by life, in all of its forms.
have you ever worked so hard TOWARD something
and
one day
find yourself there
almost confused??
after putting SO much effort in the towards-ing
actually getting there
can be quite a surprise.
now what?!
the universe LOVES clarity.
without clarity
the painter has no paints.
often
clarity comes
as a result of pain
challenges
mistakes.
rinse the brush.
start again.
paint the picture
EXACTLY
how you want to.
what IF
life really WAS the desert?!
and
the only reason
anything exists
is because of thought.
think about the sheer magnitude of thoughts
that go thru you head
every day.
what if they could be replaced
with pure. clear. thought.
thought that has not been poisoned by doubt. fear.
thought that lifts us
high!
to the place we truly belong.
clarity is born from experience.
when we understand
what we do NOT want
we can understand
what we DO.
and then we find ourselves riding a camel….
when walking alone in the desert
consider this.
the vastness of it all is not in LACK
it is a ripe canvas
ready for creating.
if your life feels empty. lonely. hopeless.
perhaps
you have not yet realized
the camel under you.
ANY experience
can be
Clean Slated.
know what you don’t want
to know what you want.
and
build your beautiful life around you.
