Which pretty well describes the process I am currently undergoing in everyday life.
Sometimes my itchy skin, problematic backaches, gimp, and fuzzy eyesight make me tired of being a physical being in a physical world, with tiring emotions, and too busy mind.
But oh the uplifting sensation of looking into the unknown within and before me….
Living in two worlds, or even a multiplicity of worlds or levels of consciousness, and doing it consciously, is an interesting process. The games played on the computer are no less real than the games we play every day as “living life” (in its shallowest interpretation).
Said another way, at this time, my experience of everyday living is no more real than the games I play on Facebook. But this, of course, is only true if I experience everyday life at its most shallow. If I pay attention, and see the overlays and the forces that move in a hidden way beneath everyday life and experience, then the Facebook games are just a sketch, an attempt to make an everyday activity be pleasant and have no repercussions (except rotted fruit or hungry animals that are not REALLY rotted or hungry. No sweat.).
So trying to notice the hidden forces of life in an everyday context is a surreal process that tends to make one lose track of the overlay. Suggestion: don’t do this while driving…..
With the kind guidance of Pete and Jenn, I have understood what I had done wrong when posting new articles and blog entries. They have been corrected and now are accepting comments from readers. I continue to scour my mind for blog entries rather than reflexively going to the jigsaw puzzle site to do a couple of quick puzzles (to clear my mind, of course!).
Winter is the time for introspection…. So where did it get to?
Having had problems learning the software of my brand new site, I am testing to see if I know what the *heck* I am doing. For instance, did I just make a mistake using HTML-ease (greater than, less than, mathematically speaking) containing the word “heck.” Probably. Therefore, I will change the little arrow heads for asterisks, that are more benign. If what I am writing about seems a little obscure, not to worry. HTML-ease IS obscure to us tyros.
This is a test. It is only a test.
Life proceeds…. When does it not? Inner vision appears at unexpected moments and fades away as “life proceeds….” What the inner vision is for, one does not know. Is one supposed to know? Not necessarily. If I were more fully conscious I would be more accepting of not knowing. But that is only what I presume.
Yesterday my brain registered everything through a sort of fog. I found it difficult to take in, sort, and classify what was being said to me. I found it even more difficult to respond intelligently. Strange fog. I’m not used to that.
I shall play Solitaire and try a new website of puzzles. That should satisfy my brain and allow my real self to get on with its work. Meanwhile, I can look forward to a wine and cheese party tonight at a friend’s house. Such is life as it proceeds….
This is focused difficulty, specially with the phone glued to my ear as I listen to Jenn give instructions about how to use the software. But one must persevere. Also, I can definitely feel when my brain reaches maximum processing power and retention. Fortunately, I am old enough to not feel shy about saying “thank you very much. I am going to rest now.” LOL
Although one could say that too many horses is a bit much, I have never found this to be true. The wall behind my computer screen proves this. In my case, horses are one tool for gaining emancipation. Each person has his or her own. The work is to find them and then use them appropriately.
For example, at a certain time I found drawing to be very helpful, and a source of knowledge to my personal path. I did A LOT of drawing. I still enjoy going back to them and thinking about what triggered them. A sort of looking back at the past as a portent of the future….
