THE
REBOUND EFFECT

Did
you ever take one of those nasal decongestant spray deals? Maybe you
had some allergies going on...or a stuffed up nose from a cold.
At
first you can get some relief...but...IF you use the spray too much,
too often and for too long...you get the payback.
Your
nose gets clogged...it gets super clogged!
REBOUND!
Sometimes
I've noticed that when I start to shoot my mouth off about some state
of consciousness that I have arrived at, in, with, whatever...or some
revelation about my ascension into wonderfulness...that I've figured
some tricky bit out, perhaps it's about some relationship thing,
or...whatever.
The
condition is one where I think I have made some insight or
understanding regarding something or other, usually to do with a
tricky and or difficult element of behavior...reaction...response...and usually wrapped around some
interaction with another human being.
Come
to think of it, this could also include some thorny problem of
attitude, feeling, emotion around some critical issue in my life...or
in the life of someone I come into contact with.
Perhaps
the person tells me about something they are going through...and I
smugly know that I have mastered this particular whatever it is they
are going through...and I might think how IF ONLY they had MY
insight...oh boy, how clean and wonderful they would be, feel,
and...so on.
Do
you know what's coming?
Can
you...feel it?
REBOUND,
BABY!
Sure,
before you know it, somehow or another this little tricky deal-i-oh
is front and centre, right in my face, and I have most decidedly NOT
arrived at some “insight.”
In
fact I am right back in the poo sauce, wondering why my enormous
enlightenment has dared to take a well deserved vacation from me.
Let
me clear up a possible misconception about me me me...I am NOT all
wonder and perfection. No.
And
I do do the God thing, a lot.
Probably
cuz I need to...or think that I do.
But
mostly, I think it's cuz I got into the habit. And it's a tough
needle to drop, you know? Especially when it gets in your face and
won't let you run away.
So
I know a little bit about what it's like to be all holy and
pure...and Brother and Sister Love, that is most definitely NOT me.
Some
days you just got to go through the REBOUND, and get into some lumpy
gravy, and clogged up spirit. Some days you get this heavy weather
you just got to go through.
Some
days, you gonna feel like crap, and about as spiritual as...well...as
me: Not too bleeping spiritual.
And
I know for a fact on a personal level that does not mean that the
game is over...and so do you. I just wanted to tell you that you are
not alone in this parade of misery and grumpiness, or whatever your
in-the-moment affliction might be.
In
the case of this series, the intent is to focus your attention on the
teaching that God lays out
in the book, “God Consciousness.”
And
what God has to say about when you are down in the dumps, or getting
some tasty REBOUND.
My
arrogance seems to be ALWAYS answered with some sort of object
lesson. And I have found that when I become aware that I am
suffering, this is a good time to reboot the program, and drop a few
hits of God.
All
the Best,
Robert
