Why, thank you very much.
Unfortunately, little good it has done for me through time, unless, of course, the proof may be found somewhere along the lines of Spiritual Advancements.
Which actually might hold a window, seeing as I have consistently made choices in this life that have rejected the promises of wealth for the comfort of my own psyche.
The list of what I have rejected is somewhat long, and still makes me smile.
>Being true to oneself is always a far better choice, one without regrets, and very comforting in aspect. My simple life has suited me just fine, with many important lessons of survival learned along the way.
When in was about 15, my mother chastised me for not going to Church. I told her my church was in my heart, to which she replied:
>you are deludedI told her it had to do with love, and living IT every breath, not just one hour on Sunday. She became incensed, and finally said: "You can't 'live on Love', you need more. You..."
Well, I look at her, smiled, and walked away.
The next twenty years were rough between us, until she became a Discalced Carmelite Nun, and began seeing a different world, where love reigns true.
We when on to have many interesting, esoteric conversations. To this day she she rarely tries to oppose me. That woman still needs many prayers, lost as she still is in many ways. In some ways, I think of her as my own wayward child, who needs understanding, and, well, love.
>oh, look. There I went off again musing. It's interesting how that works at times, what sparks the mind to connect dots on lines that weren't visible. Apologies. lol
