Life is for Living

Life is for living, money is for spending, clothes are for wearing, and food is for eating.

There is always another day, the sun sets, the sun rises, each day comes with a new 24 hours for us to live. One day will be our personal last, but even then, the days will continue for others. Time does not run out, it continually replenishes.

The stuff of life is just the same. It is only an illusion caused by our fear and short sightedness that makes us think we might run out of something. The World is full of all the things we need and want. There is no danger of running out of food any more than there is any danger of time running out. Plants grow, rocks form, and animals are born. It happens continuously, without any effort from us. Each substance fills the measure of it's creation, follows it's divine intention to perfection.

An oak tree always starts as an acorn. There are not any oak trees out there that used to be rose bushes. Rain always comes from rain clouds and rain clouds come from evaporation. Rain drops don't start out as pebbles in a stream. So it is with us. We have always been who we are. Our divine and powerful nature is constant, only our fear makes us believe differently. Only mankind has this ability of self delusion. The rest of nature never has an identity crisis. Our mind is the most powerful of all God's creations, and our mind is capable of convincing us that God does not exist.

Fear and doubt are only products of the mind. They teach us to worry, and fret and otherwise stress. There is no productive outcome from fear or doubt. They do not help us. They do not save us from certain doom. They do not even put one more dollar in our pocket, or add one more minute to our life. They rob us of joy, and keep us from love.

Life is infinitely good. Eat the roast in the freezer. Saving it will only ruin it. Wear your favorite shirt, drive your car, pick some flowers, spend your money. Let them fill the measure of their creation. Let them fulfill their intention. Live life and fulfill yours.
