the Irony of Humanity … (06/20/13)
The GREAT IRONIES of BEING HUMAN(e):
*Irony #01: The only way to personally experience the raw Bliss of Oneness is to realize that you are not at all separate from your surroundings.
*Irony #02: The only way to mentally realize this Oneness is to physically ACT accordingly; in ways intended to benefit the whole more than the self.
*Irony #03: Every time we do something for another that brings ourselves the least personal benefit, we are actually doing the most for our Selves.
Bonus Irony: The more difficult the act of self-sacrifice engaged, the more simple the aforementioned Truths become — and the more profoundly we are allowed to soak in the Bliss that allWays accompanies them.
“When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.” ~ John Muir
