\"2368799393_9ce7857805\"<\/a>Have you noticed how life just keeps getting easier the older you get?\u00a0 Things that used to be important in life now seem not to even have your consideration for contemplation?\u00a0 Because of this your life has dramatically decreased in drama.\u00a0 All of us will sooner or later “get it”.\u00a0 Love.\u00a0\u00a0 Like it or not, that’s what life boils down too.\u00a0 I know that that’s a big pill to swallow on the back of a dry loveless throat for some of us who are still early on our paths.\u00a0 As a matter of fact (or opinion), I would say that the more the idea of “love” makes you squirm the less mature you are where you are.\u00a0 That’s not a knock on you but a fair observation, in my opinion.<\/p>\n

What is life?\u00a0 Life is love.\u00a0 What is love?\u00a0 Love is life.\u00a0 What is God?\u00a0 God is love.\u00a0 Its circular.\u00a0 Its perfect.\u00a0 Its graceful.<\/p>\n

As the realization of our own mortality sets in,\u00a0 our lives go through a transformation.\u00a0 A repositioning if you will, of a sort of internal quake that repositions are personal axis, changing our lifes trajectory towards an attitude of giving and sharing.\u00a0 Being contributing.<\/p>\n

What becomes clear to each of us is why are we on this Earth.\u00a0 We become less selfish and we begin to lose that “whats in it for me” and start living a “what can I do for you” model.\u00a0 If you need something more tangible to wrap your head around think about your parents.\u00a0 Remember how tough they used to be?\u00a0 Now as you sit across the breakfast table watching them play with your kids, you wonder, who are these people?\u00a0 And where were they all my life?\u00a0 The latter is quickly dismissed with your utter most appreciation that they are so much more easy going.\u00a0 Their grandkids are happily bouncing on your parents lap being soaked in unconditional love.<\/p>\n

As I have processed this myself, my conclusion is that what is happening is that we are all realizing that all of lifes possessions are not what really matters.\u00a0 The old cliche is really true.\u00a0 Its not what you take with you when you\u00a0leave because you cant take anything of material, but its what you leave behind spritually.\u00a0 Your spirit can live in a child for the rest of their lives long after you have been physically absent.\u00a0 Its your legacy, your memory. It’s \u00a0the difference you made that matters.\u00a0 And either way, their WILL be difference.\u00a0 What will yours be?<\/p>\n

If you dont feel it yet, dont worry or fret.\u00a0 Dont be jealous or envious.\u00a0 The catch is that these selfish feelings will not be possible for you to harbor when your path finally brings you to this really exciting place of understanding and forgiveness.\u00a0 Its quite relaxing.\u00a0 Peaceful.\u00a0 Its a gift to have your mind free of all the silly things in life that you never had and never will have control over.\u00a0 Freeing up space so you can concentrate on the things that do matter.\u00a0 You will almost always look back at the person you used to be and say.\u00a0 How was that me?<\/p>\n

The nice thing is that you will look back with acceptance and forgiveness with your new toolbag of understanding, and give yourself a pat on the back for your progress.<\/p>\n

Life is moments.\u00a0 We dont have enough time on this Earth to figure out all the things that are bogging us down.\u00a0 Just take that internal filing cabinet of all the things that befuddle you and dump it on the ground where it belongs.\u00a0 You DONT have to figure it out!\u00a0 Its just that simple.<\/p>\n

Now with this new room for your soul to move around in, shake of the dust of “why” and just start living.<\/p>\n
