My wife sent me this this morning via text which reminds me of her because she is a consummate overachiever like my father. There are never enough hours in the day for her to accomplish what she wants to accomplish any given day. She was validictorian of her High School Class in a private school just like my father was Valedictorian of his public High School Class in 1934 in Seattle, Washington. Maybe this is why we get along so well because she reminds me of my own father in this way.
I found I could not compete with my father because he already was so busy all the time. However, I found I could Be myself because he was busy all the time and this worked.
Then I found that Being was what was important in life. Though doing enough so you survive is enough in the end Enlightenment is pure Being. And from pure being we all become immortal because we were already immortal to begin with.
So, enlightenment is more about being than doing even though if you don't do some things your body and mind will die here in your body here on earth.
God once came to me as a young man and said to me: "You're too Serious".
There are only two things he said that are sins in the end. "Taking life too seriously and not taking life seriously enough."
When I woke up from this time with God my body shook for several days because God had shared the real truths of the universe with me during that time with me.
I have been different ever since God showed me that when I was a young man likely around 20 years old.
By God's Grace
