LAUGHTER, THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE

It’s not about right belief; it’s about right practice. * * * We come into existence with a binary egoic operating system already installed. We can make the choice to upgrade to a non-dual operating system. -- Cynthia Bourgeault

I believe Bourgeault nails it, and life itself is all about right practice and upgrading our egoic operating system...or, choice of reactions...at anytime as needed. Needed meaning to stay spiritually in touch...sometimes just trying not to be as nasty as we want to be.

To more deeply understand that, take the saying that most have heard, hurt people hurt people. Consider that most times hurt people hurt people seemingly out of anger when in fact anger is hurt's hidey hole. Hurt is a feeling of lack of love and the binary egoic response is the well-known fight or flight.

We must remember this, the way of the Lord is not the way of fight or flight, nor of winning friends and influencing people. That way stays our focus on self...upgrading to the way of the Lord is to turn and return our focus to the Higher Power within our self. That it is that opens the spiritual flow outward for the benefit of you, me, them, us, ours, theirs, dogs and cats and all the flora and fauna in between.

The way we practice that is not thinking on it but not thinking...we turn our thoughts over to God. In God consciousness, there is only love...and laughter which is the language of love.

Thank you.
