We Don’t “Know” and IT is Wonderful! Let’s Go With IT!
by livewhatyouknow
Trust Life.
IT knows what IT is doing.
We don’t “know” what is best or even how to label anything — ever. IT is wonderful (if we choose to see it that way)! We can let go of trying to know it all, label it all and figure it all out. Instead, we can just BE and experience all of IT without needing to call it one thing or another. IT works perfectly that way. IT is the only true perfection. IT gets to experience ITself that way, and that is what IT is here to do. Meaning, that is the only reason We are here.
Whatever we think it is — whatever seemed to happen or not happen, whatever seemed unfair, terrible, wonderful, amazing, like a blessing, sad, happy, IT didn’t happen the way we may think it did. IT wasn’t bad or good. IT was perfect!
Truth is — we don’t know if IT’s good or bad and we don’t need to. Labeling IT either way only keeps us from experiencing a deeper version of Life. Good and bad only exist in the illusion that most of us have agreed to call “reality” — it isn’t reality once we know who is creating Life and who is choosing what we are looking at and how we see it.
Deeper Truth is — there is no good or bad, there is only the exact thing the Universe/God/Life picked out for us to experience at the precise moment we experience IT. We can lean back and look for the message we are meant to receive. We can trust that IT is the experience we are meant to have because we are having it. This is the way of Life. It is going with the Flow. It is following our Heart. We can call it anything we like as long as we embrace the courage to do our best each and every day to Live IT.
It is easy to get caught up in judging situations. It is easy to waste time resisting what already is. It is easy to dwell in distracted doing. These seeming “easy” choices aren’t actually “easy” at all, they are the hardest ones to live. They only exist in the illusionary world of suffering. Even to call it suffering misses the point. If suffering leads to bliss, was it ever really suffering? Was it more like a trusted friend trying to wake us up? We do have a friend that we can trust no matter what form IT comes in. Our friend is Life.
We can build a relationship with Life based on trust and do our best to give IT our fullest attention. We can stop ignoring IT and/or wishing IT would change. As our relationship with Life deepens, something much better than “easy” will embrace us. That thing that is “better” than “easy” and beyond our habitual illusions is without a label. We could choose to call it peace, joy, love, consciousness, awakening, being, reality, truth and many other words. These are all just labels pointing in the right direction. What IT really is cannot be summed up in words, only felt deeply within. It is in the silence, not in words.
All is well. Thank you All, I’m grateful for every part of you!
Brilliant post and wisdom Stacy! I’ve been practicing living this way. We really don’t know what is good or bad. It’s best to accept, embrace and flow with what is.

Hi, Stacy. I was searching for a video of Eckhart talking about roles we play, and I saw your blog in the search. I really like what you do here, and had a very pleasant sense of peace remind me of who I am, of what sustains me. I was reading the about column, and have been browsing after reading. I noticed the last posting was this year and wondered if you started a blog elsewhere. Be well.
Blessings

Hi James. Thank you so very much for this wonderful comment! The timing couldn’t be more perfect. This feels like one of those “Universe Hugs” I mention. Just this week, I have been updating my About page as well as the My Story link at the bottom of the About page. I am resuming my posting today and excited to get back to it. Your words of encouragement and inquiry help me feel that I am on the right track in getting back to something I so cherish. Thank you for visiting. Thank you again for the wonderful comment. Sending you lots of love and good wishes! – Stacy
