First Step Toward Enlightenment

In order to fully realize and activate your inner child You must put your minds aside Your reptilian mind and your cognitive mind If you want to be fully self-actualized and enlightened I stared at the soothsayer, but kept my mouth shut. My minds were both running in all kinds of directions. I know what I speak of, he assured me. I was not convinced. Maybe we have different ways of obtaining enlightenment. My path might be totally devoid of ignoring my minds. My feelings laughed in my ear. Believing he knew more than I did. My muse began to hum and dance. That’s the first step he told me. You are on the right path.

It is possible, I think, but so very hard to do. Is this self-actualizing? I think so.

It might be for some of us but probably not all - I think God has given us a variety of ways to find our bliss.
