Who knew that life could actually be simple?
Not easy because nothing happens…
but peaceful because we finally stop fighting existence itself.
The greatest things we seek are often already within us long before we go searching for them outside ourselves.
HOW COULD WE KNOW
Who knew that life could be and is…so simple.
It only requires that you live it correctly while using it.
It is when we overly “want” and then go out and about the getting and fulfilling of those wants that complications set in.
It’s how you go about it all.
It is not what you have, but how you came to have it.
YOU GOT THIS
We were not meant to win at all costs, possess all we see or constantly immerse ourselves into everything we can lay our hands on.
Actually, it is the other way around.
The closure, satisfaction, peace and contentment we are all seeking comes from within…not without.
And you already have this.
NOT BEFORE THE TIME
Getting ahead is promoted at a very early age in children just about the time when their innocence should be protected and mitigated.
When a child is constantly faced with having to do something other than be a child with what children naturally do, they advance beyond their assigned timeframe.
Bye-bye innocence and enter the competitive way of life.
Children need more kid time.
Adult time comes later.
KING SOLOMON
I am amazed at how people do not grasp the lesson presented by King Solomon and learn from it.
He was given permission to have it all and then report back his findings.
So he obeyed and went forth and had all he could think of, possessed it, repeated it and was also given the time to truly take it all in.
GO TO IT
He was the billionaire of his day.
He had power, fame, wealth and the good sense to know how to use it wisely — the true gift.
He was allowed and permitted to serve up and partake of all the many desires and pleasures and let them have their way.
He was given an unconditional:
GO FOR IT.
And he did as asked.
VANITY — The Quality of Being Useless or Futile
After indulging beyond his wildest dreams, he concludes and without hesitation reports that without meaning, depth, purpose, understanding and proper usage of the how and why dynamics, all becomes vain.
A form of worthlessness and no effect.
Having it all came down to having nothing in reality.
WHO IS USING WHO?
You see, anything that you have to constantly return to has power over you.
Whatever you get into, gets into you.
You can have, but the force behind your having wants something too.
Thus we become bound to the pleasures that bring us rewards.
This doesn’t sound right nor feel well.
Solomon was there to tell us.
ANOTHER WAY
Another fellow comes along and makes very clear that there is a way to go about something, but it involves allegiance to what is right, fair, just, true, decent and most of all part of the Universal plan and not the plan of all you can have.
One will.
One way.
One truth.
And then this promise was made.
SEEK RIGHTEOUSNESS
Do this first and everything else will be given to you.
You see, without satisfaction and closure we will always remain in a state of want.
Seeking the right way to go about earthly existence prepares you for what comes next…
similar to how the caterpillar’s life lived gives way to the butterfly stage.
ADULT CHILDREN
Back to the child existence.
In the world of a child, being carefree, light-hearted and innocent allows another to take on the responsibilities that would interfere with that existence.
Making a child stay a child.
Unless we all become like children, then we cannot gain the privilege of having a Heavenly Father.
WHO KNEW…
Who knew that life can be so simple, is given before the asking and is so easy to live if we allow it.
Now…
we know.
