Everything is the same, but you are not seeing it that way. You are looking through a prism for YOUR benefit.
I don’t know why I do what I do each day. I guess you could say I make a difference for some folks. I don’t get paid. I don’t meet barely anyone in person. But I keep doing it. I feel compelled to. And obviously I love my family and friends and the time I get with them. Once again, another compulsion. Now, at 34, I am really starting to pick it all apart.
Tonight I started watching City of Angels with Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan. Incredible movie! I saw it years ago when it was in the theatres. It had a profound effect on me. I guess I just felt a lot of truth in it. Everything in it seemed very possible. That’s all we have, right? Something is either possible or impossible. The longer you hang around in this “prism”, the impossible things occur less and less as we are exposed to more and more.
Can you imagine going through the world, constantly running into angels? I don’t QUITE do that, but what I go through feels very unique. No one wants to talk about it. Every time I get into a deep discussion, no one wants to really go as far as possible. And that’s usually because they are not in the HABIT of talking about that stuff. No one wants to talk about how there is no proof to anything. No one wants to talk about how you only believe the past, you don’t really know it. No one wants to talk about what a strange concept the future is. Once again, something you just believe. No proof.
We go through all this stuff, in some sort of vortex, and life just seems to swim along. We dodge the deep stuff. We ignore the genuinely massive problems. No one wants to address the really significant issues because it just takes too much work.
What would you do if you had a real life angel encounter? How would it change your perspective on life? Have you ever heard of the magazine Angels on Earth? Google it. It is put out by Guideposts.
Take some time to move that prism around a little. It can be incredibly fun to look at things differently.
