WHEN THE WORLD STOOD STILL

There have been moments when people feel the world stood still.  They have ushered in many actual occurrences in our life's.  Probably the first was our moment of birth.  Most people will never remember this actual event; some people claim they do.   I am not here to argue that point; but just to remind people that the world does stand still in your life.  Other moments that make me believe the stillness of Mother Earth, is at a special event...like a graduation speech; or any speech for that matter.  The silence before a storm; the stillness as the wind seems to stop; and breath in; before the winds kick up and the trees bend from it's gusts.   In the stillness of the night; when you watch your baby breathe or the face of your loved one silently sleeping.   In the soft sounds of the waves as they roll into the rocks...gently rocking the boats from side to side.

Yes, the world stands still, as you contemplate it's depth of meaning.   It's meaning is so different to me as it is to you.  That is the beauty of this world, it's complexity.  My world is much different today than it was yesterday; as your world too has changed.

Some ideas need to stand still; and be tested by the winds of change and the stillness of your mind.  You may ask what idea's are these; and I can only answer the idea's that I question ...  for my world and your world are not the same world.  Our perceptions are different!  The colors that I see, for example, are not the same colors that you see.    So too are the people of the earth; for they come in all colors too.  Again our perceptions are different.    That's what makes this World so Special and it occupants, special too.

I think that at the moment of our death; the world will also stand still!  For your perception will be on the spiritual path before you.  We think of death as an ending; but in essence it is the continuation of your life.  The earth journey will have ended but you the spiritual being will still exist and still experience the wonder of the universe.  Many paths have crossed here on this earth journey, some will have ended and some will continue on.  This is your spiritual pathway to the infinite conception; and it's journey takes many twists and turns; but you will remember this "When the World Stood Still."
