IF—

BY RUDYARD KIPLIN
[ ‘Brother Square-Toes’—Rewards and Fairies ]

If you can keep your head when all about you / Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, / If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, / But make allowance for their doubting too; / If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, / Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, / Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, / And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: / If you can dream—and not make dreams your master; / If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; / If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster / And treat those two impostors just the same; / If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken / Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, / Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, / And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools: / If you can make one heap of all your winnings / And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, / And lose, and start again at your beginnings / And never breathe a word about your loss; / If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew / To serve your turn long after they are gone, / And so hold on when there is nothing in you / Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’ / If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, / Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch, / If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, / If all men count with you, but none too much; / If you can fill the unforgiving minute / With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run, / Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, / And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

The most important knowledge you will ever need is the knowledge of God. Know the Source and you will know Who You Are … Imago Dei.

“I think we’re going to the moon because it’s in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It’s by the nature of his deep inner soul … we’re required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.” Neil Armstrong

From where I stand, it seems like there’s no more night and day, they are both slowly fading away. The Brightest Light is constantly projecting Its highest quality photons straight into my core. Perhaps, is more than a projection, I AM Its Sanctuary. All the Beauty I can experience, absorb and behold, with the limitations of my physical senses and filtered by my brain’s visual cortex, is but a dim reflection of Its Source — the only One who can truly satisfy the deepest yearning for the Beauty that my heart truly desires. Interestingly, this perception, this constant awareness of what’s behind the matrix doesn’t diminish the re-created beauty molded by quantum invisible forces using plain gray matter, it enhances it. Because of this increasingly awakened state of becoming more ‘in love,’ of being filled with IT [ the fuel our engines are designed to burn on, ] the Life in me can better appreciate even the holographic hollow moon in the September night sky, when she wants to be seen in all her different forms and apparitions, fully illuminated by our solar system’s sun or partially hiding behind dark-grey clouds. Even the night herself, like the most dazzling shaped reflection of Eve on a very special date, showing in her smooth hands, the tips of her fingers’ delicately and perfectly sculpted French manicured nails, waiting to be noticed … the small details, like the waxing or wanning crescent moon, shadowed by Earth. Beauty, with that look of love in her eyes, … Femininity at its best, contained and bottled in the most enchanting and queenly fashioned Eve, just waiting and wanting to be gently but firmly touched, as a prelude to a passionate kiss, enriched by the smell, taste and texture of the finest wine, at the sound of a mid-slow tempo Bossa-Nova jazz piece played by seasoned musicians, by the ocean, … making music and making love from a distance. Altering the brainwaves, stirring the fire, the desire that possesses and consumes our lower senses, with our permission, leading us to the deepest and most ecstatic and intoxicatingly heavely-hellish experience possible on this side of Creation — a taste of Eternity, — before waking up in each others’ arms with an even more increased and intensified sense that we were made for so much more, … for a Life that is partially now, but is yet to come, … the New Heaven and the New Earth, Eden 2.0.

“… Lumiere, darling / Lumiere over me / Lumiere, darling / Lumiere over me / Lumiere, darling / Lumiere over me …” – E.S., Tenerife Sea

“We believe that the Lover, by whatever name, is the primal energy pattern of what we could call vividness, aliveness, and passion. It lives through the great primal hungers of our species for sex, food, well-being, reproduction, creative adaptation to life’s hardships, and ultimately a sense of meaning, without which human beings cannot go on with their lives. The Lover’s drive is to satisfy those hungers.” Robert Moore

Nothing is more meaningful than Beauty … “One thing I desire and I seek most — to gaze upon the beauty of the Creator.” King David
