Shedding God
when you have shed your “god,”
like old dead skin,
it will fall away off your body---
decaying & no longer relevant in any way
to the rest of your healthy
body---
you will feel cleaner than you ever have before, simply because
there is nothing out there already established as
superior
which claims that you have “sinned” or that you
constantly do wrong, consequently being in need of
“it”
&
you will feel the weight of a thousand bad dreams
released from your
shoulders,
because the fear of “what comes after” will no longer be a
question
to be answered.
understanding that your death is finite will allow you to see life for what it is---
extremely short &
extremely precious.
you will no longer feel that you owe anything to
anyone,
except those that you choose to love on this
planet &
you will no longer fear any consequence of an action
which has not been spelled out for you by yourself & your fellow humans,
having had many examples of those before you
suffering or succeeding in
such.
by taking up the sole responsibility for your
own
life,
you will most assuredly find that it becomes clearer that
our importance,
if there is any on this planet,
is revealed to us, by us,
and that we alone are able to better our lives, or
kill ourselves off.
