Wonder & Awe...

Posted on Apr 4th, 2006 by Zennie : Earl of Essence Zennie
The Majestic Sombrero Galaxy (Messier 104)



I heard a message on Sunday that said we have been taught in life to come to
conclusions. That is fine he said, but often we close ourselves off to the wonders and mystery of God by maintaining an attachment to our conclusions.

Another key point that was made was that everything is changing, especially these days, so opening to new concusions or no conclusion and experiencing the mystery makes life an adventure and a journey of wonder and awe... like a child. It brings fun, growth, learning, and love into our lives that would not have come had we not opened up or if we
were only willing to see life in the same old ways. I know that there have been times in my life where I have been absolutely bored with my life. Now I see why. I was looking a life from the same set of old conclusions.

This was a timely message for me as I tend to come to conclusions and decide too early how a person or situation will be instead of letting it bloom and grow.

Anyway, the preview of the "Celestine Prophecy" movie and the message this past weekend really showed me within myself that each situation I enter into if I walk into it vulnerable and open will reveal to me the truth of what it is I can know. Vulnerability is the opening to not knowing how it will turn out. Our intuition guides us spontaneously through the experience, but does not reveal what is truly in it for us until we walk
through it.

So, I like this "no conclusion" intuitive style of living, and I want to be more spontaneous in a deeper more vulnerable way trusting that the path is opening to me each step I take and no conclusion is permanent.

I have read about "not knowing" or "don't know" mind, but that seems similar to vulnerability which leads to openness which leads to the willings to gain new insights and speak the truth of what I have experienced without having to protect myself. In a sense, it is taking the risk that as I am and as life is I am still lovable and the possibilities are endless for new realizations. It really doesn't matter what I know or how good I look on the surface. In fact, those attachments or protections just limit me.
