Morning Meds; 5 20 19
I tend to take the idea of a spiritual journey far too seriously.
I came from a belief system where our passage through this life is seen as a one-time shot, so face it, I was always one heartbeat away from judgement.
After I accepted reincarnation as a viable possibility it took a lot of the pressure off.
You know, I could chill out a bit, this could be trip one thousand for all I know.
Hopefully, I’ve shown some improvement.
In hopes of finding a way to lighten up a bit I meditated and asked for a lighthearted guide to help me relax a bit.
I lit incense and a candle.
I fired up a bit of sage.
Crossing my legs and my fingers, I started breathing to quiet my mind.
After the silence thickened, I began to see my core with a light shining up out of it like a spotlight.
Out of this shining light the top of a cylinder slowly appeared, an elevator I thought.
Finally, it fully emerged, I waited in anticipation for its door to open.
Then much to my surprise, the soundtrack of the old Woody Woodpecker cartoon blared in my mind, the door flew open there stood, Bugs Bunny.
It really spoiled the whole mood of the thing.
I was kind of hoping for a happy Dali Lama or a laughing Buddha, but the message was quite clear just the same.
Our spiritual experiences here are meant to be an enjoyable journey not a walk on a tight wire.
Well, that’s all folks.
Don’t forget to have some fun.
Love is a happy thing, fear, not so much.
