The Epiphany

There comes a time in every individual's life when the world just... stops. Time ceases, and only the beat of a heart can pulse within the ears. It always happens when there is a choice involved. A choice when God itself is waiting to decide which road will apply not only to the individual, but to the world.

One choice... small, mundane. The heart races, teh palms sweat... time begins to pound, and the nervous anxiety of a soul crying out begins to be understood. For one moment in time, that individual gets it.

We are all God. Heresy. Blasphemy! But there it is. We are all God. We all carry that spark, that infinite wisdom. We love, we laugh, we cry and weep. We create.

God is in everything, and so therefore It is part of us. Each kind intention, a stack of good. Each wrong and evil presence another blot of darkness upon the canvas.

We are paint. We are spirit.

And then the moment comes/... and we choose.

Do we bring this knowledge to our populations... or do we hide it among dusty books and heretical lists? Who are we? Which choice is right?

Nothing. Nothing is what is right. All is perspective, relativism and illusion. Everything is based upon perception, and there is no possibility of making everyone happy. The pursuit of happiness is by necessity self-centered. The moral person pursues happiness while attempting to not harm others. THAT is the difference between good and evil.

THAT is who we are.

Hey Sealiah..

Very interesting viewpoint. I do agree that we have aspects of God in us but that is all. We are not God. We cannot create worlds .......planets ..... solar systems. We can't even clean up our own world or stop war or make peace. I think...... that the pursuit of happiness should begin within oneself. No one truly understands what happiness is or what it means to themselves. Your piece here is a very interesting take upon what we are. It may bring about a whole bunch of discussion if others read it. Very philosophical if I do say......... your writing that is. Thanks for sharing it.

Mysty

Thanks for the response Mysty. by saying 'we are god', I was being metaphorical. We can't wave our hands and create planets, but we CAN create. I don't know if that makes more sense now or not, but my brain was tired.
