A Day Less Ordinary
The business of being human can be so tedious. Every morning I remind myself that I do not have to make it through another day. I get to.
We can spend so much of our energy seeking a genuine connection between our physical self and our divine source, that it often becomes a life-long quest. The path can seem murky, while other days it seems crystal clear. It would seem that very few people are able to remain steadily in-tune with the divine, and those who do have no earthly idea how to describe this condition to the rest of us.
This is not for lack of trying. They write books about it, sing about it, hold seminars on it, blog about it, and illustrate their connection to divine source through artwork, poetry, preaching, and life-example. Most of us listen, read, and view their personal interpretations politely.
Meanwhile, we also tend to think of them as crazy.
This may be simply because there are no tactile representations in our human language that are adequately suited to the task of divine expression. And why would there be? We are so busy searching for our human connection to Divine Source, that we seem to be missing the whole point:
They are two separate entities.
Divine Source is eternal, timeless, and just is. A physical being is earthly, bound by the laws of space and time, and able to experience the human condition.
Both of them are you.
When I am able to remember this distinct degree of separation, I am aware of my ridiculous human tendency to seek a connection between these entities, as if there were some question of its existence!
The human being got so wrapped up in her acquired belief systems, that she forgot (again!) the simple truth. Divine Self smirks because she knows that she already is, and so marvels at the antics that little human puts herself through trying to find a connection that already exists.
If human-self would only remember that she is here to experience what her divine-self cannot, then she would realize that she gets to be on earth for another glorious day of living! Believing that she is connected to a higher power is only an aspect of the human realm, while knowing that she is already divine eliminates the need for a constant search. Well-being could not only be restored, but maintained consistently. She could be full of appreciation for who she really is…Every single splendid minute of every single splendid day that she is here to create her human experience.
There. See? Now I sound like a crazy person, too.
