I Agree.

I agree. However, let me be a bit more clarifying...
Over the last couple years I have been practicing more & more living moment by moment. As my mind on its own tends to race at high speed whenever it feels fit leaving me NO CHOICE but to sit and just "be still". Interim I take moments, usually in the wee hours (5:30 AM ish) to just sit on the couch in the dark and be, setting a slow and calm, quiet and peaceful tone to "just do it"! All this week was packed with more than normal for me and I found this time around it was different--I also knew yesterday as I got up and sat "just do it" was a call for rest.
In conclusion, I agree, though I need the moment by moment pace and I also require--require a listening silence to help guide in "just do [what] it"

who you really are?

http://m.gty.org/resources/articles/A214/nothing-safe-about-secret-sin#.VYwooUtMuwc.facebook

A great read, again, as I read it last year and found how I find it additionally/differently helpful in this time and space.

This is what jumps and pumps within right now: "As a matter of fact, your secret life is the real litmus test of your character: "As he thinks within himself, so he is" (Proverbs 23:7). Do you want to know who you really are? Take a hard look at your private life—especially your innermost thoughts."

"Do you want to know who you really are?
Take a hard look at your private life—especially your innermost thoughts"

An invitation for us all...

Yes.

My innermost thoughts are often very celestial/Spiritual.  It's not that I am out of touch with "reality" it's more of a I see, feel and live the best I can 'here' in the moment.  

I am one who will choose the Spiritual over earthly every time...(though I am human and yes, I fail when earthly gets to be tempting time to time)

By that I mean, I live open to receive all unseen, unknown.  All God is giving to me; especially the promise of life eternally.  And the pieces shared now!  

I, again, best I can 'here' live that eternal reunion and love, true love.  Sometimes almost a creating of time and space for that in the now amongst the heartbreak and sadness.  An ascension of sorts.

I am one who loves being gentle, kind, serene, playful--not an unwise folly, joyful and loving.  Greater than not those are the basis of my innermost thoughts.

First and foremost my innermost thoughts are I want to be as good and pure and disciplined as possible 'here.'  I want NOT to sin.  I want NOT to temp others to sin.  I want NOT to keep company of sin.  I want to be, carry and company Peace.  

(this is not a one time shot and finished answer, always a work in process and progress)

I'd say I am wanting what God is preparing for me...

I am quiet, I am ready, I am faithful, I am wild oats sown, I am His.

For what shall I pray;

Holiest God of all, 
keep me in ways that are fruitful to you and for you--
moment by moment; awake, at rest - in Spirit, body and mind. 

Forgiving, loving and guiding all my earthly ways...
In Christ's name always, amen.

Eyes Of A Child

Realization of the imagination
creativity
simplicity
where does that go?
For some.

Grow up, act like an adult
not my gig the majority,
what fun would that be?!

Spongebob Squarepants
Tigger
Goldfish named Chip,
so what --
they're part of my repertoire.

Called fuckin' nuts
more times than I can count.
More often than not
poking holes in the box
head in the clouds;
"keep your head down"
"too sensitive"
call it as I see it,
as it is.

I'll laugh and say it right to your face,
not to be mean,
sadness actually,
so stuck in "reality"
humor gets lost.

All the shit happening in the world today
it's all so big, so small
panoramic view of it all
perhaps, it's your perceptions that need revisiting.

Stick with me kids --
I'll show you how to evaluate, break it down,
the lighter, brighter side,
getting shit done
making a difference
looking through the eyes of a child.

Really!

I'm a guy who talks too much

not the stereotypical bullshit one would assume

every word I speak is heartfelt truth.

I cannot help that at times it's overwhelming

or OMG just shut up -

I really do try.

Like throwing Mentos in Coca Cola

and shaking it up

yep, if it doesn't come out 

feels just like Imma explode 

bustin' the bottle apart.

The deeper the feelings

the more that fills my heart

outlet - needing to be shared.

So, my apologies

if saying too much is bothersome...

Word.

True dat.

That's just who I am,

Really!
