What if I really lived this way?

I've been wondering how I would be if I really lived like I knew everything was going to be all right. 

Or if I really lived like I knew at all times I was loved and am love.

Or if I really lived like I knew that I had access to a power that is unlimited and can do anything.

I was considering it as I was making it through another cacophonous few minutes in my life where my thoughts were doing a victim conga line in my mind.  From past and guilt to future and fear.  I loved how Liz Gilbert described the mind as a monkey swinging from vine to vine.

I just know that life is not meant to be this way.  But I also keep forgetting.  I asked a good friend last night how often he thinks about the past and he told me 10-20% of the time but he only does it, generally, when trying to recall something.  Wow, how nice that would be if I could live life and only access the past as an information source.

I know the power is within me, I just wonder when I will live that way.

Because I know that when I do, things will just be lighter.  I don't mean like dark vs. light (then again maybe I do) I just think I will walk around lighter.

That sounds pretty cool.  I wonder if I can really live that way.

I sometimes lie in bed at night and before I fall asleep I get flashbacks of things I haven't thought about for years. Often they are cringe worthy things I've done or said and it always makes me wonder why I all of a sudden think back to this time in my past.

Tim, I know with 100% certainty that you absolutely are in the process of really living in the way you describe. You clearly describe your true nature (knowing everything is more than all right, knowing you are both love and loved dearly Always, knowing you are God) and I believe you are inevitably moving deeper and deeper into that knowingness within the eternal NOW.

Yeah, you totally ROCK, Dude!!!

Peace, Love, Harmony and Joy my Friend =D
