* you can't control everything...

 ...but that doesn't mean that you can control nothing.

(that verse is soooooo rich & juicy [and up to you] that 
it would have been restrictive to add capitalization & coloration).

b116 (7.30-1.2023): what is Love?

what is Love? [i]
by nobody k. nows

what is Love? (that answer has to go another Way)
what is love (it’s ego: left & right/below-above)
what is Love (can wIe go?)
 
Playing:
what is Love?
___________________________________
 
·       since no one has ever been able to describe what love/Love is... i might as well give it a go:
   o   love = ego-ic affection: it often ends badly.
   o   Love = Unconditional Positive Regard: one wants the best for he/r beLoved, without regard to self-gain.  no quid-pro-quo.  Unconditional Love (of course) is non-judge-mental.  it is All-Ways a Happy ending.

• on planet earth, Unconditional Love might be best experienced by mother and child, due to the act that child and mother were/are One.

 few (if any) you-[i]-mans will ever come close to bathing in the Rain of Love.

* is a bad actor a good omen...

 ...or is versa-vice?

* i love the rain

when i was a kid, my father (albert) used to sit out on the front porch during thunderstorms.  we (his wife & kids) would gather around him, and we would applaud the lightning and thunder.  the neighbors, of course, thought that we were crazy -- so we named our house "m.m.i."

i've wondered if, when albert was a kid, if he'd been scared of storms.  i wondered if that was his way of helping us not to be.

i'm grateful for albert, and i love the rain.

* a course in miracles

a course in miracles is a book about Love.  it is in code, of course, and was a foundation for Spiritual Scripting.

my guess is that the author knew that she could never, ever describe Love, so she described what Love is not: the ego.

classic. 

this is not to downplay the ego.  ego (energy, on the go) is merely perspective: relative, differentiated, sometimes oppositical perspective.

ego (sometimes referred to as "edging-god-out") isn't bad, per se.  it is an is... in this, a relative world.

from a Higher Perspective, 

Love IS.

* what did it?

q: what brought me out of the depths of the back end of the train and into Love Reigns?

honestly?  besides rain?

1. a movie (top gun, maverick), and

2. a song (love reign o'er me), and

3. intelligent comedy (bill hicks) and outrageous comedy (sam kinison)...

...and hummingbirds.

tears of joy begin Love Reigns, 
and that doesn't mean that i will simply ignore 

the present situation that this little blue ball is staging.

the perspective, however, shifts:

instead of fear, Love.

of note?

1-3 (above) necessitated technology.

let's stay positive, as best as we can. 

b116 (7.25-3.2023): Love Reigns (prologue)

Love Reigns (prologue) [i]
by a. Lover
 
this book is not intended to be reality.  it is intended to be a Spiritual peek at Love.  Real, Unconditional, Love.
 
the idea is that Love IS ALL, and that our experience, here in the Play, is the ego-love continuum: the black/white, the up/down, the left/right, etc.
 
Love Reigns decides to turn the tables on hell.  Love Reigns believes in Love.  Love Reigns can co-Create the one-in-a-million outcome.
 
Love Reigns, even as Love rains.
 
the reason why i’m writing this book is to engage with Love,… to embrace HE/R, to Trust HE/R, and to Believe that creating one’s own story-line is possible.
 
will ‘bad’ things happen?  how can they not?   can i react with Love?  this book is that.

Love rains [i]
by a. Lover
 
Love (not always sunshine)
me, i can’t complain
it’s a mix of dark and light and (yes, tonight)
Love rains
___________________________________
 
·       Love, in HE/R quest to Know HE/R-self, particularizes into that which s/he (apparently) is not: the ego.

·       the ego (the false sense of separate self) ‘reports back’ to Oneness, if you will.

·       the micro Be-ing the Macro, so to speak.

·       Love can, in effect, rain.
 
Perfect Bliss can feel like pain, at times.

___________________________________
 
·       this book represents a shift from the darkness of the back end of the train.  it imagines a Uni-verse of Love -- that allows each of us (as One) to co-create the Play.

·       as of today, i am choosing the positive.

·       even if everything appears to break down, I’m going to Trust that the Uni-Verse is Love, and that Love IS.

·       i can believe.

* back cover (the back end of the train)

the back cover of the back end is a play in progress/process:

the graphic will be different, since i used a graphic from the web.  heck, i can just ask chat-gpt (or he/r evolution) to design the graphic.

...but how will i know if chat-gpt didn't violate copyright law?  how will the ensuing litigation progress?  who will sue whom -- when currency doesn't exist?

why does all of this matter?

because it's fun?

waaaaaaay back when -- in the year of 2019.  

it was part of book 83: the back 9.

it is hereby resurrected in book 115: the back end of the train.

i was, of course, wrong...

when i inferred that robots couldn't sing, or dance or play.

One (or more) of them will be able to do EVERYthing imaginable..
