Energy can not be created or destroyed.  This means that everything that ever was and ever will be…

Is.

I’ve been contemplating this for years and every time I pick it up, my mind stretches as my brain tightens.  Some of us humans walk about believing that we are accidental bodies in a random universe.  Our mind is on matter so to speak hence the term “what’s the matter”?  Another side to this is that each of us are the center of an infinite universe.  I’m ok with that ideology but it is not what I see.  That seems like a narrow, ego-centric way of seeing the world. 

An infinite universe would imply that the center is everywhere and the circumference is nowhere but I’m not sure that means I’m in charge or that I need to figure it all out.  I also let go of these matters because matter is just dense energy and to me, that means trapped energy.    

It makes more sense that everything ‘appears’ or ’tends’ to be.  This is more accurate than “this is what I feel or think” or “that’s just the way it is”.  This phenomena we call ’life’ is an arising.  There are many differing groups (scientific and religious) that have become so dogmatic that there is no talking to them whatsoever.  I use science and religion loosely because these groups are political… they have an agenda.

I’ll clarify.  Science is our birthright tendency to explore this phenomena we called the universe.  We must be open and curious in order to expand our awareness.  If the entire “UNI VERSE” is one phenomena arising as a tendency and we are that arising then it follow suit that the purpose of religion is to re-legion; rejoin or re-yolk us to the original form and function.  Otherwise, it’s just more bullshit ideology that perpetuates our illusion of separateness.   

It is easier to believe than it is to understand, and whatever put us here gave us all the tools to understand. 

Much like a loving observing parent allows us to be ourselves.  We are given all of the tools.  Some of us attempt to control reality through knowledge and power.  Some of us argue about whose dad is stronger and better.  Some of us smile with the subtle knowing that we are loved and are love. 

Regardless, everything is ONE thing.  I cannot understand for the life of me how we became so easily fooled into believing that we must fight for survival, rebel and do it on our own.  It is like an illness or worse… species adolescence.

Whatever your ideas or beliefs are, I suggest that you take the day or a moment to contemplate how absolutely fucking incredible it is that any of this even exists in the first place. 

I end with the beginning:

Energy can not be created or destroyed.  This means that everything that ever was and ever will be…
