What I Need to Know

What I need to know.

I was born with a very inquisitive spirit and a pondering mind.  The need to know, the whys and the whens and the hows, was strong in me but not about mundane topics, rather the mystical and unfathomable possibilities outside our day to day existence.  I have always been impressed with the fantastic and profound, the surreal and the unseen, and enjoyed the methods and people who could elevate my vision and perception of my ordinary life to an extraordinary one. By being able to see the world and life as an expansive yet hidden concept, not visible to the ordinary person, allowed me entrance into a secret society of "knowers" , a fraternity of seekers with the truest grasp of the meaning of existence. That inner belonging made it more bearable to exist in a world of darkness and ignorance, but it also separated me from humanity, the part of humanity I have seen as different, inane, foolish, and uncaring.  As long as I have believed I live separately because of my special powers associated with my allegiance to the higher awareness, the REAL world where knowledge and power are pure and divine consciousness reigns supreme, I have limited the possibility of that knowing in my own simple life.  And, as of late, I have become vividly aware of my status in the world even with all this great knowing- I am just like all those around me whom I have judged; inane, foolish, selfish and ignorant.
Does this awareness mean that all I have seen and felt about the vast universal and divine concepts are invalid ? Quite the contrary, it has taken on an even more profound meaning for me. My need to know and understand has taken on a simpler but greater approach. In knowing my connection with my divine being, I love my life and soul much better.  I realize that that being exists in each moment , each person, each thing I encounter every minute. Understanding my past gives me hope for my future but what I NEED to know is where I stand at this moment - my present. Who I am at this moment - my principles.  How will I express myself to the world around me and participate in the continuum of a conscious and beautiful existence- my soul.   Who I belong to and who I thank each day for my light and life - my God. This is all I need to know today.
