Radical Optimism

This reminds me a lot of Krishnamurti’s work too, but also, more recently, of Michael Singer’s “The Untethered Soul!”. It is truly beautiful and inspiring and perhaps that’s what humanity should be aiming for – oh, wait, there is no aiming for!! 😊 At every step one can notice how tricky it is to get our mind around the conditioning that is so deeply rooted! We are always taught to aim for something – even as we aim to clear our mind of aiming… Personally, I love the idea of living with joy and embracing every moment with gratitude. Living without judgement is so liberating. For me, it is the larger perspective that does the trick. Expanding awareness to the mysterious universe we call our home. I marvel at the infinity of the universe and its abundance of beauty. That is enough to feed my soul for a while. It allows me to experience oneness with everything. And everything seems so fresh and new. Just staying open, staying aware. But living in our current world as a radical optimist will take some practice. I believe that everything is perfect as it is. And I believe that joy, rather than worry is the key to solving our problems. So, I guess, I am an optimist. I will not aim to become radical. But if it happens…well…it happens!! 😊
