I spend a lot of time wandering around wondering if Im good enough. Then I take selfies because through some ideal lens at some set angel maybe Ill love what Ill see. And if I dont, Ill filter it. I thought this was some modern day millennial generation charade but really its a timeless hurdle for any age. For anyone who feels totally whole and completely complete. Who loves what they see every time they glance in the mirror and at the holograms of their soul. Or even better, sees no sense for a mirror and understands that the soul is what sees. Try to see the seer. I want some. I want some of what youve been breathing. Can I sit under the bodhi tree with you? Teach me your chants, pass me your prayers. Ill say them too. Ill yell them and let them echo through the halls of my dreams if it means I can feel that too. But friends, this hole were trying to fill is not new. The dark space wont overflow with light just because we got 100 likes. A gazillion followers, the hottest girlfriend, the raddest car, the raise or any other form of flattery or praise. But maybe were inching our way towards a little key that if rattled enough and tilted the right way can wiggle right into that crevice weve been yearning to fill. Maybe were not far off with our technique of lens and angel and filter. But silly me. Howd I miss it? It isnt the lens, angel and filter on some camera or impression of an expression outside of me that need dusted and adjusted. You want to know advance technology? Check out the brain all those little wires, the mazes of files and downloads that Ill probably never understand. How a single thought shifts our chemistry, makes us feel different and walk different, speak different and touch different. Or if we cant properly walk or speak or touch, what about what makes us blink? The thought that determines how we give goodness or receive goodness. These concepts so big that its hard to wrap our minds around and believe holy. Talk about innovation. God, whoever you are, whatever you are, you did good work. Maybe my interpretations have been hallucinations. So now when I walk pass a mirror or glance in my soul, how could I or you or any of us be less than whole? A product of the most intelligent engineering still unknown to man. How could I or you or more or any of us think the design is with flaw? Rather a more appropriate response would be to be in awe.
