Why do we insist on always being secure and certain of everything in our lives? It is a falsehood that stems from fear that makes us design these ideas. There is no security in the following statements:
I need a job that gives me a salary: Lie!!!!
I love her so the next obvious step is marriage: Lie!!!!
Health insurance is important for when I get sick: Lie!!!
Lies, Lies, and more untruths!!!!
Truth: YOU NEED NOTHING.
In this moment, I have everything that I will ever "need."
Truth: LOVE IS NOT A WRITTEN AGREEMENT
When Love exists there is no need to even talk about it. "To verbalize it is to profane it." - Osho
Truth: HEALTH INSURANCE IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS LIFE INSURANCE
What is guaranteed in this life?
There is a mysterious beauty in living without security.

Relating Ride
Life is an amusement park...I just bought my tickets!!!
I am involved in a new challenge as of late. No longer in the pursuit of "relationships" for what I can take from anyone else. Instead, I NOW embark on these amazing adventures with my fellow "riders" and decide what qualities from within I am to share with them. It is the "relating" with them that Osho so eloquently describes as "just a meeting of two strangers."
Be prepared and seek out new opportunites to express yourself in anyway you see fit. We are all creators and once we can comfortably be aware of the importance of our human interactions we will learn to bless them - each one. There is no ride that is not worth taking. No rider that you shouldn't want to sit with. Take them all as they come. When you look back on the experience you will say to yourself, "They were all worth it!" It is along this journey that we express our highest potential - WHO WE ALL ARE!!! So bask in the glory of the experience and just throw your arms in the sky....

Circle, Circle, Dot, Dot...
"Everything is wonderful, BUT..."
"I really want this!"
"I really need that!"
"Why are these things happening to me?"
We always have to put our own twist on things don't we??? I've heard it so many times before, I've said it way too often, it all stops now!!! No more saying one thing and doing another. Time to put into practice everything I already KNOW. Unhappiness (or even happiness for that matter) does not come about from the circumstances of our lives, but conditioning... the training of our minds.
Circumstances??? The word itself implies a stand taken in a circle or a person being surrounded by something. Surrounded by what though? Our minds draw these simple shapes of Euclidean geometry with us at its centre. We have this incredible power to create and uncreate these two regions of separation (interior and exterior). We are that one point or dot on the inside and everything else is out. This separation can never serve a beneficial purpose in our lives. Instead, its purpose is destructive because there is no separation!!! It's all an illusion. We are all one. God, the universe, you, them, him, her, and even me. We've been programmed from an early age to compartmentalize, differentiate, rationalize, and separate. These boundaries we have been taught to create only hinder us from understanding and achieving our full potential. Limits placed in our lives out of fear, not love. For love has no boundaries. It wishes to have no restrictions in the manner in which it can be expressed - freedom in its purest form. It can all be yours if you just let go and be free!
