We had a year together, you and I, my angel. I tried to keep up the good vibes for you. I tried to show you interesting things about this ‘new’ world. Show you security and trust. You are so amazing.
But a year was not enough time… I got to know a wonderful new person, parting will be hard to say the least. Soon I will have to leave you and go back out into the ‘real’ world, and miss you long days of the week. I will treasure our times together more than I now even realize.
My pure love, my daughter… never thought I’d get so lucky…remember me saying that to you over and over when you were first born? “How’d I get so lucky” Daddy and I called you “Maya Papaya”, because of your spiky hair…
And I sang you to sleep with, “Goodnight sweetheart, I’ll see you in the morning, good-night sweetheart, I’ll see you in my dreams…”
Daddy knew the love would floor him, so afraid. I knew, but embraced the change…
Why did I used to mock ‘parents’? Now I am so glad to join the ranks, of those who can love this unselfishly, this beautifully…
The love of a child is the best love their is, (if you are already centered as a individual person, of course)..
The pedophiles are abusing such a precious/Godly state….before the world corrupts us…they hasten the corruption…how sad…
I do not believe in original sin…I believe angels are sent to us, perfect and holy…
The love of a child is pure, heart-melting love, just so vastly different from other types of love… (Romantic, friendship, etc.)
Love of the world and all on it is much more difficult to achieve.
I’ve discovered it is better to love unconditionally, without judgment, without mental good or bad categories, and that mindset does take practice…..
Not to easily anger, to forgive other people for the emotional pain they inflict upon you is sometimes very, very difficult indeed…
But it is so freeing to try and maintain a non-judgmental mindset,
a forgiving mindset,
and an empathetic mind set…
(of people and animals)
To stop thinking of other people as ‘different’ takes work sometime When someone speaks a different language, has a different appearance and demeanor than yourself, it may be difficult to realize that they feel just as deeply as you…
Have you ever been an outsider? You should try being an ‘elective outcast’ if you haven’t already, to broaden your earthly empathy… (I love Goths for this) Walk the streets pretending to be homeless, see how it feels…
Animals have no choice in your treatment of them. Try to imagine yourself as a pet, at your mercy, or a wild animal that crosses your path…
Chances are, that animal has something to ‘show’ you…the concept of animal guides are important in Native American culture and can show you pieces of the puzzle of your life, that you may not have seen on your own…
Loving yourself, allowing love to flow freely to you, can be the most difficult lesson of all…
Smoking cigarettes, most drug and alcohol abuse comes from a lack of self-love…escapism, hating your surroundings and circumstances also…
(Try to change those circumstances, (at least mentally by meditation.)
With addictions of any kind, the body is no longer serving as a ‘temple’, and the brain has surrendered to the ego, (that part of us which compares accomplishments, holds destructive pride, envy, negative emotions…) On an endless task/reward wheel we never find real peace, though that’s what the goal is…
All negativity can be overcome to achieve an Enlightened state of mind,
not necessarily final Enlightenment, (Nirvana),
but the practice of healthy and pure day to day living, maybe some yoga, meditation (it’s easy)…
which is necessary to open your chakras, soul, entire being to true bliss, living Nirvana, which is within reach… Here and Now… You don’t need dogma, you need to unlock what is already inside you…
