WHAT IS- IS, AND IT IS GOOD
BECAUSE IT IS TRUE
I am blessed to currently be without pain or illness, so sure,
“it is good”. I have known both many times over my 88 years. I have not forgotten, but I can still say “it is good”. I am here to learn, and pain and discomfort are good teachers. They are not by accident, and serve good purpose.
Most discomforting is mental confusion, having just enough cognitive capacity to know “I’m not thinking well”. Our consciousness is generally expressed through our brains. It does not originate there, and may on occasion be expressed outside the limitations of neuro functioning.
As many random thoughts flit through my consciousness, many are discomforting. I must observe and filter out that about which I can do nothing. If I can’t improve what appears to be negative, I accept it as “is”.
What “is” covers a multitude of circumstances. At this moment it seems most helpful to look to the apparent negative considerations. First in mind is Trump and his cult. Just now mentioning that subject causes me immediate discomfort about which all I can do is control my responses for my sake.
As I’ve said before, T is not thrust upon us by mistake. He is here to teach us, to show us our personal dark sides. Of course he does not know that. His Luceferian complex convinces him he is god, so if he says it, that alone makes it true. He considers he is owed the reverence of all people, and the right to punish anyone who fails to do so.
