Truth Or Dare

What is the truth? - Do you dare to find out?

'It must be nice to live in a cozy illusion' - This is a statement made by someone that I felt was being a bit harsh on me when I was speaking about my life as I now live it (most of the time).

My first response was 'ouch!' and then I thought 'but we all live in an illusion to some degree don't we?' Well this was ok and it got me by for a while - Until . . . . . .

I thought deeper about this whole thing of illusion and the great 'get out clause' of "Oh I'm sorry I wasn't thinking straight at the time I'll do/say that again"

Which of course lands me in the hot water/ hornets nest of 'who the fuck am I anyway?

I know that there are some benighted folk that 'think; they know who they are - (sorry let me put that again) - I think I know of some folk that 'do definitely' know who they are, and I usually conclude (on a good day?) that they are the lucky one's and on a bad day I'm not so sure.

'This is no one's problem but my own.' This is another of my thoughts on the subject of nothing in particular. This - is = I am stating that 'this is' reality. No - one's = I am really talking about 'who I am'. Problem = something that I cannot understand. My = me/myself/I. Own = posses.

Now I'm thinking I'm trying to be clever and it is true I am trying to be clever. Why would I not want to be clever? But I am trying to not be confusing and so on that note I will desist. I hope that you can see what I am getting at (he thinks to him-selves assuming that there are people reading this!)

Bearing in mind that nobody seems to have the time to do yoga anymore -( too busy is such a popular excuse these days - but let me ask you one thing - who makes you busy or what makes you busy?) - I am not going to suggest that you get up in the morning and do 30 minutes of deep breathing - because you won't have time!

'We have found a strange footprint on the shores of the unknown. We have devised clever theories, one after anther, to account for it's origin. At last we have succeeded in reconstructing the creature that made this footprint. And Lo!. It is our own!' Sir Arthur Eddington. (British Astrophysicist ).

Shanti!
