This Is A Perfect Moment
It's a perfect moment for many reasons, but especially because you and I are waking up from our sleepwalking thumbsucking dumbclucking collusion with the masters of illusion and destruction.
Thanks to them, from whom the painful blessings flow, we are waking up.
Their wars and tortures,
their crimes against nature,
extinctions of species
and brand new diseases.
Their spying and lying
in the name of the father,
sterilizing seeds and
trademarking water.
Molestations of god,
celebrations of shame,
stealing our dreams and
changing our names.
Their ingenious commercials
and bloodsucking hustles,
their endless rehearsals
for the end of the world.
Thanks to them, from whom the painful blessings flow, we are waking up.

Pronoia is the opposite of paranoia--the antidote for paranoia.
Pronoia is the true theory that all of creation is conspiring to shower you with blessings.
Pronoia is the guarantee that life always gives you exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.
Pronoia says that everything alive is working very hard to liberate you from ignorance and transform you into the gift of love you were born to be.

Some Buddhists say the inherent nature of existence is suffering; they long to escape into nirvana. Many Catholics say the inherent nature of life is sinful; they long for the purified peace of heaven. But pronoia assures us that the inherent nature of life is to liberate us.
Being born on the earth is the highest honor and greatest privilege. To be alive as human beings gives us the chance to pull off exquisite and Herculean feats of magic that are not possible in nirvana or heaven or any other so-called paradise, higher dimension, or better place.
I'm not exaggerating or indulging in poetic metaphor when I say this. Visualize it if you dare.
The sweet stuff that quenches all of our longing is not far away in some other time and place. It's right here and right now.

Life really is perfectly imperfect. I don't know if everything really happens for a reason or what this reason even is, but I know I'm not going to waste one perfect moment ever again if I can help it. How many of us are doing what we want to do right now, I wonder?
"Do we all know where we belong? And if we do, in our hearts, why do we so often do nothing about it?" ~ Beyond Borders, a very good movie which I recommend.
I am happy right now. There are moments when a sad longing creep in, but how could I not be happy? I'm alive and I can do anything I please. Every day brings new adventures and I'm ready for them all. Don't forget to live, people!!! This may be the only life we have and if that's the case, make the very most of it.
What's something you always say you want to do, but haven't done it yet? What are you waiting for?
Is there something you want someone to know, but haven't ever told them? What are you waiting for?
Before It Is Too Late
If you've a tender message
Or a loving word to say
Don't wait 'til you forget it
But whisper it today.
We live but in the present,
The future is unknown
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is all our own.
The tender words unspoken
The letters never sent
The long forgotten messages
The wealth of love unspent.
For these some hearts are breaking
For these some loved ones wait
So show them that you care for them
Before it is to late.
