So today as I was walking to work I was noticing my shadow. It's always dark when I go to work, so it's just the street lights behind me. Usually where I walk I get two shadows from the different lights. This morning though, I walked about three feet further to the left and had 3 shadows. I laughed. Then I was thinking more about the joy in my life. I've been telling people to focus on the little things that make them happy and it will create a happy life full of little joyful moments. I thought about posting something to facebook about my 3 shadows, and the delight it caused. It's so childlike. I don't know anyone that appreciates their shadows anymore. Am I regressing to a childlike state? I don't think so, but maybe. Is that a bad thing? I don't know. Probably not. I'm pretty sure Jesus says something about being like a little child. The wonder, the joy, the complete faith, the love. There is no complications- it just is.
I don't say much about God anymore, just because it doesn't feel necessary anymore. The talking about it, I mean. I don't think on those terms anymore. God is. All around and through me. He uses me, He directs my path into random coincidences all the time. I have learned to accept that God just is. I cannot be far away from him, I don't have to talk to him, because that is merely for my benefit. He knows my thoughts before I finish thinking them- because he is beyond time. I have learned that everyone needs to experience God in their own ways. What could be infinitely important to someone else, is pointless to me. And that's okay. Do what you've got to do. Everyone is wired differently.
The thing that has been the most useful to me, is to know that it's nothing I do. It's just BEing in the moment. Fully aware of what is going on around me- that God IS. "I AM" is the best thing He called himself. It is mindblowing.
Anyway.
So I met a guy who seems to really like me. Crazy. But awesome. So we'll see if this goes anywhere. He's been out of town for a week but gets back tomorrow. I so can't wait!!!!!!
