Moog: I love that song, "Oh Yoko." One morning months ago, I went to a Starbucks early morning for some breakfast and coffee. Outside of the lobby, there was some piped-in music playing. I didn't recognize it at first because it was an instrumental part that was playing. It was so beautiful. It took my breath away. I stopped and listened a bit longer before I entered and then heard John's voice. Even today remembering this, it takes my breath away. It was such a beautiful setting for the start of an ordinary week day.
BTW: Everyone here is really encouraging me to post most. I've never encountered so many affirmations in one place before. Yes, I was in absentia for a time but I think I needed that space. I needed to go to the Moon and sit there a while with my eyes and ears turned away from our blue planet Earth. I needed to rediscover myself not as a pile of fashioned clay or mud but as a creature of a timeless and infinite universe. So much for being a cog in a huge wheel, I needed to believe in something more than the symbolic wheel of anonymity and oblivion. I still haven't found myself because of all the mirrors everywhere, reflecting me back to me and seeing the faces of others in my own eyes and countenance.
We are on a mysterious trek across the universe. One time we're here and in another time we are light years away from where we used to be. And time is occurring all at once. Everything is happening all together, past, present and future. But something incomprehensible extinguishes any awareness we may have of the separate components of our existence which are continually subsumed into the greater hole of the Whole.
Why did I write this? It's the universe speaking of itself through one of its creatures. It is conscious and alive and because of it we know we exist or suspect that we do.
So, let it be. Later.
