The story of one’s life is filled with controversy and confusion!
So much controversy and such a hell of a lot confusion created the very concept of Conflict, and thus, Story was born.
Without Conflict, there’d be no Story.
So, then, who did Conflict…mess….i mean uh. “mate” with to create the glorious child that is Story?……..
You name it, Conflict did it….he messed with…mated with the entire cosmos of possibilities…
Romance….Friendship…Politics….Conflict soon had all three of those areas of human endeavor tied into insoluble knots. And as for Religion, Science and General Societal issues? Well, they never stood a chance once Conflict showed up.
There were times when Conflict ruled the world every moment of everyone’s day! Conflict was strong, oddly comforting and all too familiar( which is what made it so easy to embrace)….BUT….!!!
There was one area of human endeavor where Conflict could not gain foothold ( Conflict has very large feet)… and that area is Consciousness….human/Divine Consciousness….Conscious was too vast and generous a place, too soothing a concept, for Conflict to ever take root….and it often died trying! But in the embrace of Consciousness, Conflict always got smaller and less powerful, and would, if truth be known, would relax in the comfort of Consciousness’ nurturing and spacious realm.
And that seems to be the story of my life: Conflict and Struggle into blessed Consciousness….honestly, who could ask for anything more?
