[This is a reprint of my post of November 19, 2013.]
I'm reading some really high-flown spiritual material, and I'm underlining in red, highlighting in yellow, putting exclamation points out to the side in green...I am flying.
I put my head back to rest and to ponder all this, and my first thought? My very first thought is that I've got to tell Gertrude how wrong she is, how disrespectful not only to me but to blahblahblah. It was, or it felt like, an hour before I caught myself...before I reined my thoughts in and brought them back to reality. The reality that God is ever with me and so is my ego.
The good news...no, the great news...is, that God loves me so much he encourages me to laugh at myself. My ego? Not going to happen, not only no....
"Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused."
Thank you.
