Of Spirits and Spirituality

Empaths be like “There’s a hurt in my heart chakra and I don’t know whose it is”. These days you find me oscillating between sloth, Ascended Master, inner child trauma and magical shit. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. It’s why you’re seriously struggling. 

God is always joking. Look at your life, it is a joke. Look at other people’s lives and you will find jokes and jokes and jokes. Seriousness is illness. Seriousness has nothing spiritual about it. Spirituality is laughter, spirituality is joy, spirituality is fun. Live like a spirit. 

Today will never come again. Be a blessing. Be a real friend. Encourage someone. Take time to care. Let your words heal, not wound. But if it becomes absolutely necessary, ensure that the daggers you speak don’t just mortally wound your victim. But also ensure timely death. 

Making music is so spiritual. I’m not a deeply spiritual person, but music is sacred to me. When you see the bodies of work Jon Bellion puts out, you can immediately tell that he has been touched by the “Hand of God”. The music hits you and you feel no pain. Soul food.

When you get angry, they tell you count to five before you reply. Why? It’s what happens before I count to five that makes life interesting. I sleep in church because I’m trying to be more like God, and on the seventh day he rested. Waking me up in his house is simply rude. 

Self awareness is not self-centeredness, and spirituality is not narcissism. ‘Know thyself’ is not a narcissistic pursuit. Spirituality is like a bird. If you hold it too closely, it chokes, and if you hold it too loosely, it escapes. If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. 

If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

    Nothing New to See and Hear Now with
    Only Eyes and Ears Whereas Mystical Spirituality

    Is Far Beyond Even Distance Space Time and
    Yes Only a Matter of Materially Reducing Reality
