Looking

Let there be the understanding that all things are generated because of our desire to fulfill a purpose. Let it be understood that we direct our movies much like directors direct movies. We all have an overall sense of the script but we have the option of changing things as they are being filmed. While every change directly affects the outcome, the main story lives through our changes.

While we see things in their unfolding, new things appear to us and the story is ever evolving. Creating involves letting all things go. Creating things involves allowing those things to become what they are so that they can change to what they will become.

No scene is ever complete until it is photographed and embedded in our consciousness. And even then it is not complete because it will change as it is being watched.

Our confusion arises becuase we don't know if we are creating or directing or watching. So it is our role that we must go beyond. We must allow "it" to be. We must surrender to the story behind the story, which was written long ago and which entices us to enact a story to bring that original story forth.

Most of what we create, we created long ago. To create anew for the future we must allow those original creations to manifest and clear our canvas for a new painting.

The world is a painting that awaits the release of past pigments and longs for the creation of new ones. When we cease painting we become the painting. When we stop looking at the painting and enter it we step into the potentiality of the next painting. The next painting is always within the last painting. If only we would release it. We cannot do this until we take paintbrush in hand. We cannot do this until we relinquish control and see the painting for the deep heartfelt desires that they are. We cannot enter a painting until we have put the paintbrush aside and become that which we paint. Feel the colors. Feel the texture. Feel the depth. Feel the overall scene. Step into it and beyond it. There you will find all that which gives meaning. There, you will find you. And there you will find all that you are looking for.
