The Painting of Life

Be Free from now and always.................What is there to wait?..................Until your very last breath there will be some work to do..........some duty to still complete...........someone to care for............That picture you shall continue to paint until the very last moment.................There will be no moment when all will be done..........Each one lives with the hope of love..........Each one wishes to be loved  a little more than he was yesterday............Each one wishes to receive a perfect moment to love his beloved ones a little more............One comes with the hope to be complete in whatever he finds and receives in his life.............But in the midst of the plans you make..........in the midst of the worries you chase..........in the midst of panicking and rushing to complete your perfect picture you forget your true purpose............You forget that the main purpose of your coming was to know the artist and the source of his inspiration...........that is your Self and God.
Remember every picture that you paint will be a reflection of how much you know your Self and what you know of your Self will reflect how close you are to God.
The illusion lies in attempting to paint the perfect picture.............One becomes so engrossed in collecting the colors of the world that in that one forgets to reflect and draw from the rainbow of truth that shines in every soul..........in every Self. Be strong moment to moment................realize every picture that you have painted is only a perception drawn by your mind............They do not in any way reflect the truth of your nature and the strength of your true character...........The fear of painting the perfect picture is itself drawing the fear from you to paint the picture of horrifying imperfections..............
The truth is simple............there is no perfect picture...........no perfect self............no perfect time and no perfect life. Knowing that hold the brush in your hand..............turn toward the treasures of simple values...........Be content in simply expressing the simple values that speak in your nature..........Hold on to these values each time you feel the urge to turn to an outside source to find happiness.............Turn away from the temptation of voices that call you away from being Self content.With the colors of simple values and the palette of Self discipline continue to create the moments of life there with you........................With the innocence of laughter and the purity of sweet childlike love fill the canvas and marvel as the will of God holds your hand to paint the picture that is for the moment perfect for you to witness………And then you must move on with creating a more colorful rainbow of values.....principles..........and confidence in your Self and in the will of the source..........God.  Be free from then on...........and realize the peace that you have drawn from within to create the moment of complete acceptance ............You are the artist that will paint the picture of the Source using only the wealth of the soul and the expressions of peace that reside in your own truth!
