    Default The right thing??

    How do you or I know that we are doing the right thing?

    Well, I believe that my inner guidance will lead me to the correct path for me. And that I am always doing exactly the perfect and right thing for me at any moment in time.

    This means that if I eat raw it is perfect, and if I eat cooked it is perfect.

    Actually there is no thing but perfection in God/dess's Universe.

    I am totally perfect as are you.

    Now with this in mind, why am I not breatharian? Why do I need to breath? Why do I exsist as a human being? What is my purpose?

    To be. It is that simple, there is no more or less than that. To be, means to be aware of myself as a spiritual being of light. To express my god/dess hood as a physical creation on this plane.

    To be is to express myself using my emotions, my thoughts, my beliefs, my talents, my knowledge, and my focus.

    To experience that which I have expresses as my life, to experience the emotions that my physical being is manifesting, to gain the capacity for those emotions, and to evolve into a more perfect self of creative self expression.

    What a circle this is, to be, to experience, to emote, to be. hummmmm.

    For what purpose? To be, etc.

    There is no more answer than this.

    And with that said, then for what purpose is anything? To be.

    Okay, I got that, so anything more or less is simply the experience, to bring about the emotion. Which in turn brings about the the self. Hmmmmmm

    and another hmmmmm, well, okay three hummmmmmmmms, just to be sure.

    I don't really feel that there is anything more than this.

    So, all that I am, all that I do, all that I buy, all that I express, all that I paint or write or uncook or build or create really doesn't mean anything unless it creates an emotional response, in myself or another.

    And I believe that a pleasurable emotional response is all that is important. All other emotional responses do not uplift the spirit or help with inner growth.

    Again, to be. hmmmmmmm And I might add "to be raw" as it helps me experience and express the most pleasurable of things in this life.

    This was on my mind the last week or so......when raw becomes so innate or conditioned like waking up or breathing, will I be tempted to seek newer and more different ways b/c I am concerned it will not evoke me like it does now? I wonder often times.

    I wonder too if what I am doing is right.....well not so much right but being validated by my surroundings and the world. Still alot of fear to conquer within.

    Thank you for sharing this Christine, I feel less alone and lonely about it :) ;)

    I'm not worthy.

    I finally bought into your goofy ideas.

    I'm peeling my clothes off as I type.



    Peace,

    Quite a feat. I always suspected you were a one-handed typist.
