There is much to learn and you believe you have so little time.
This is not true on either count.
Learning need not be done. You know what is ahead of you, for you laid the path a long time ago.
Unforget.
Tell yourself you do know. Let yourself know the answer.
You do.
And as for time we have been over this many times before.
Have you thought of ways yet to leverage time instead of being constrained?
You created the game so you can change the rules.
Step out of time as you know how to do. The urgency will fall away.
Focus on time and you focus on the problem, you focus not on what matters most.
And what is that?
You.
All of you. Together with the earth and sky and all things in between.
What matters is that you get along because there is no other choice.
This does not mean that you play nice – for that is not truly you.
There is no other choice because you are in each other’s space. You have no space to call you own – you try as hard as you might but you cannot not be in everyone else’s space.
So instead of trying to be apart, look at how you are already a part – of everything.
There is nowhere you can hide.
Stop pretending.
Focus instead on who you are, what it is you are here to be – the expression you like to describe as uniquely you.
Celebrate that. Celebrate your part in being you.
Focus on what you want things to be. Focus on doing what it is you like to do.
Engage yourself.
Put yourself into motion rather than idling away.
Engage in life.
Engage what is before you, behind and all around.
Move through this world instead of sitting still (which you can do even though you make believe you move).
Engage and you step out of time.
Engage and you begin to unforget.
Engage with all that is you and you start to see the difference you make in just being a part of this all.
This may not be easy at first. You may feel yourself on shaky ground.
Let that move you to a new centre – to shake you out of what you knew before.
You will become accustomed to the movement of life and will no longer want to remain still.
Shake yourself up. Change the direction of the stir.
Create as much air as you can grow.
Move. Shake. Stir.
Engage.
That is what to shoot for.
