This week, Marcy and I had some (expected) bad news,
and as I write this, we are awaiting more of the same. Two relatively
young people passing in one week makes you stop and think, doesn't it?
The
woman about whom we are awaiting news is/was an amazing individual.
Susan was full of faith and she lived that faith in a way that we don't
see very often. She gave love; she was love. Susan appreciated every
moment of her life, even saying she would choose the same all over again.
That is enlightenment right there.
As
you can imagine, I've been a bit on the distracted side and writing has
not come easily. Thinking about this post for today, I wondered how I
could put sentences together and what they could possibly be about,
considering the Big Things that are happening around us.
Then I remembered that I had intended to return to this topic of resisting our bliss.
Susan lived her bliss every minute of every day. She never said "no" to anything.
She knew that, as the Borg on Star Trek would say, "Resistance is Futile."
Now, the Borg mean "Don't fight 'cause we're stronger than you," but if you look at the definition of futile, I think the phrase would make an excellent mantra in answer to the question "Why do we resist our bliss?"
Futile: incapable of producing
any useful result; pointless.
Every time we resist our Bliss, our Faith, our Love, our Yes, we are turning our backs on life, we are producing nothing but pain, we are engaging in a pointless exercise.
I have come to a huge conclusion this week. Go here to find out what it is.
