More Thoughts on Paper

Well, not really...Im not thinking about paper, nor will I talk about my thoughts on the issue of paper more than to say, we should use less of it and recycle more of it....
I had a moment yesterday in between distracting myself with work and distracting myself with a movie, that gave me a glimpse of the wall that has been coming between my "pen" and my "self", during which I wrote a brief expose....on what else could it be, but myself?
so...here it is, nothing special, but written with "The most selfish thing a person can be is selfless" playing in the background:
By loving and accepting and forgiving myself, and everyone else, I am doing the same for God. The little problem I have is that something is holding me back from commiting to this truth fully.
Im blocked.
There is a wall between my pen and my emotions
I cant even feel myself to my own satisfaction
There is none in being alone.
But on the other hand
I dont spend the time that is required
to enjoy my self or begin to enjoy my self.
Why is attachment wrong?
Because it hurts.
Why does attachment hurt?
Because by its nature it places things in time-which is destructive. Attachment is finite, and that which we are attached to is sure to end-thus causing us pain.
What is wrong with hurting?
Accepting pain is the act of rejecting wholeness/holiness while denying pain is the denial that we are separated from God. There is less pain the less separated from the Whole that we are.
If we are separate from God, then it is His choice that we are...but we have free will, so we are separated by our own choice....
By loving and accepting ourselves, we love and accept God.
We are separate from God by CHOICE>both His is ours is His is Ours-Mine is His is Mine.
He LONGS to be close to Me, as I LONG to be close to Him.
Wholeness....
But there is something wrong with Non-attachment. I can feel it. There is something insensitive and fake about not attaching yourself to some energy that touches you deeply. It strikes an off chord with me.
I think that it is not "nonattachment" that is the plateau to reach...I think it is "all-attachment"- Appreciation, Love, Respect, and Joy in EVERYTHING continually....
