Traveling The Full Circle Path

Escape - or is it? How long have you noted the many ways and means we have to escape reality. But then we have to examine the terms don't we.

We tend to think of reality as the gritty in life though we do recognize that there are beauties found in reality. I don't think that we question really that babies smile and laugh and that's part of reality but we don't usually classify it as that. We tend to classify it as beauty, love or joy depending upon our position in life.

But we have to come back to escape. Look at all the many forms of environments as well as entertainments we have to achieve escape - but what's the ultimate goal here. Are we fleeing from life or are we rather attracted to something within ourselves and within life that creates a feeling within us.

I believe that we all need to feel welcome, safe, appreciated, loved and honored for who we are. Generally speaking we have a lot of this when we are first born - not always - but a lot. When we don't feel those things when we're first born perhaps we regret having come and then we may get upset and demonstrate that.

But there are other times when we strive for that which is often classified as escape. My feeling is that we are truly striving for those original feelings that caused us to welcome life just as we need to have life welcome us.

Maybe it's a full circle. Maybe this desire to find, this seeking is part of the path we wander from those early days of our childhood to our elder years when we prepare to rejoin the all. It is something to consider.

In light of that why don't we say this living prayer if you like. "I am asking that all those beings who need to feel welcome, loved, appreciated, understood and accepted for being who they are that they have the opportunity to feel those feelings now in the most benevolent way and that we also who are stating this have that opportunity on an ongoing basis and provide that opportunity for others when offered the chance."

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.
