There is almost nothing new in me or anyone saying these lines…or any lines for that matter!
The only thing that really matters ..is how you say it, and if it is from your experience that you are speaking.
Anything at all, said or unsaid, from the moment of inner experience, adds beauty to the world. And yet something that is of value to you, may not find immediate relevance in your immediate world. Allow the world to decide whether or not it is of importance to it. The difficult part follows, allow for it to be transformed, reinterpreted. You don’t own it ..in any case..
Without fear or restraint or hope, allow me to share this pearl..
Do not allow any idea to anchor you
Do not allow any person to be your anchor
for ideas may get lost, or change or challenge you over the time you live
for people may get lost, or change or challenge you over the time you know them
Change is the only thing that you are going to anchor by,
Remember you can not ask the river to stop flowing, then there is no river, no flow..
And yet this deep sorrow, angst that you feel right now.. you should know this. It is as real as you, and as unreal as you (if you can know what i mean!). You will continue, continue this journey along the edge of the dagger, as long as it takes for you to know that there is no you, no dagger, no journey. Until then, the only solace (or the lack of it!) is that only people, reasons, events etc. will change..
Hence standing by all the adages that has been said and heard over and over, I say this, anchor, and re-cognicize when you are anchored elsewhere, and each time, be gentle with your self. You are human and it is okay to be!
P.S: if ..and only if you allow it to be known, from all the breaking points, from the moments in which the tightly held sand.. washes away, light will dawn on you, you will know God! Trust me on this. Do not fear it when it happens, God waits on the other side.
