WHEN I WAS NOT THINKING                                            04/04/09 (00H42)

Ever wondered what would happen
Should you not think?
Am talking about literally letting and escaping
Thoughts and just be.
This is what happened to me
This other time,
There I was laying in my bed.
Without even realizing it at
That moment.
I had stopped thinking (for few seconds I know)
Guess what, the next thing…..
Tick, tick, tick…….
Still I lay, and let me to listen carefully.
Where and what is that? (tick, tick, tick)
And guess what…it was the
Watch on my wrist ticking.
In the presence of absolute (maybe not really) quietness
And no thoughts what so ever
I was reminded and could hear
My watch tick, (on my wrist nogal).
Which is something I had not heard
In four months of having worn that watch.
Sounds crazy I know, but true.

*Can you imagine all the other things that we could see, hear, smell and even taste should we just escape from everything else and pause?

*Me to you: who would you be should you be told/given a chance to be the real you (without having to face any consequences)? That is sort of break loose from:

- church principles
- commandments
- culture
- mom and dad’s piece of advices
- and the likes (that are forever in your head)

Challenge: RISE ABOVE IT ALL AS IF YOU ARE FORGETTING, BUT VERY MUCH ALERT AT THE SAME TIME. STOP THINKING (for what we think is not always true)…… …… AND CONNECT WITH YOUR INNER BEING AND SEEK TO FIND YOU WITHIN YOU. WITHOUT THINKING HOW, JUST LET YOU………………….WHO IS THERE?

The thing is we are ALL individuations from God, and surely each one of us is/should be able to connect with him without being taught/told how to do so. Or am I wrong?

Lesson: BE AND WITH YOU, GLORIFY GOD AND LET LIVE.


Am yet again to ask the Almighty to kindly allow you to grasp the deeper meaning of what I am on about here, and most probably you’ve heard similar to this. 

 BTW: it is on the 8th of this month that i was born 23 yrs ago.
