Playing the Divine Hand There are all kinds of measures of success. Whole arenas of shared collective values that can decide if you have “made it” or not. Images from the tribe that “show” if you have made it or not. Are you a genuine man? What is on the cover of GQ magazine? Are you an authentic woman? Which magazine are you on the cover of? What icons are associated with your “success”? Perhaps it is that PhD or a position on the board of directors. Or maybe an Emmy or Oscar sitting on the mantle. What are you going to use to see if you are honoring your true potential? When we are raised, we are imprinted with our values. Those values were to become the measuring stick of what we accomplish with our life … if we let them. There is no problem at all with this…
You are where you will find God The traditional model of several “World” religions is that there is a God out there,perhaps somewhere up in the clouds. Awaiting your “return” so that you can be judged based on how you chose to live your life. And then the “sentencing” follows. LOL. Indeed, certainly the idea of God/Goddess being here now is not that common of a belief. Even the spiritual seekers are often looking “outward” to find the Divine. I don’t want to paint a picture that the Divine is in hiding. There are major cultures in the Eastern religions that affirm that God is to be found within ourselves. You can even mentally understand that you are a point of presence to the Divine right now. That there is in you now, a God/Goddess essence, that is the source of All That Is. Mentally you can get that. But…
