in a language i don't understand-
sister mel mentioned this during church last week. Sometimes we're too preoccupied with the speck in the other's eye, we can't see the plank in our own.
which makes a lot of sense. and then we so proudly proclaim it to all detractors. never realising that
it can be a judgmental call too.
that's why the world; the universe as it is.
the universe is actually a puddle.
a puddle of rainwater along the murky drain beside the sulfurous road. you may seek answers to the universe in the puddle i saw today. life's answers floating about the puddle.
the problem is, we often look at it as collected water, or the reflections of the water. we don't see the puddle for what it is. a puddle.
pitiful isn't it. the analogy is pathetic, the message even more so. and
life.
life isn't about the puddle at all. life is about the thin reality existing between the congealed surface of the water, and the obscure misty air above it. life is the
in-between, the almost-there.
we can't see the forest for the trees.
sometimes i think we can't see the trees at all.
or maybe..
could it be?we can't even see.and to dee: maybe its better that way.
