GIVE IT UP FOR LAUGHTER

Meditation. Contemplation. Detachment. Silence.  

It seems so many things are coming at us now...things we need to learn, relearn, do, be. For instance, the art of silence...not just keeping the lips together no matter what, Super Glue could do that, and not holding the "good" thought for X amount of time, that's still self-directed. It's the whole of it, all shucked down to Being...In Silence.

It is self-acceptance that saves me when I feel overwhelmed by the spiritual search...or, I am on the verge of going into my poor, pitiful, put-upon me mode. When meditation, contemplation, detachment and silence are just a bunch of pretty words to me, I hear the God of my understanding whisper, And there's nothing wrong with that.

There. That's the art of self-acceptance. We cannot deal it to ourself, we can only be grateful when we're dealt it. 

We feel the inner security, the gutbucket knowing, that love and laughter are ours, always there, our safety net, our golden gifts of grace...and we realize, once again, we're taking ourself too seriously. 

Give it up for laughter. And love.

Thank you.
