life energy

I wanted to explore my latest thoughts on time. I have already concluded for now that there is no time. We perceive time only because we age. If we did not age, and lived in youthful state of bodily being then time would have no relevance at all. Not a sausage. What then is the role of age that we currently have a use for it, and therefore employ it so. Well first of all, we govern a lot of our decisions based on the "amount of time we have left" So it creates a limitation that defines the necessity for decisions to be made at all. The second thing is it gives us an exit strategy, to change our perspective if we are "not getting it" from this current view point. Third, it helps us to do what we need to do in order to not age and that is a appreciate what we have. This brings me to my hypothesis on life energy. If we were given only a measured amount of life energy to fuel this particular perspective of life on this plane, then as we used it up, it would give us a perceived time line, if something mirrored the process of it being used up (such as the physical body aging). What a brilliant self balancing learning platform. If I understand the true creative process, then I will produce more creative energy than I spend (or if you prefer for wording sake...I will "efficiently recycle" this reuseable energy, keeping it within the confines of my context rather than have it morph into "general coffers" My theory goes something like this...we have a certain amount of life energy, which most of us spend. Much literature is full of fundamentals - often quoted in the bible: "to he who has some, more will be given"; and the parables of the master and his servants who are each given 1 gold coin each. One buries his, one doubles his investment, and the other makes many times his investment. And the master ends up giving the third the values held by the other two. So, how does this apply to us? Well, if we look at what gives us a return on investment spiritually for any effort we put it then we will get some idea. Lets say I expend some life energy to shop, cook and prepare an evening meal. Total imput, considerable energy. If I have cooked for others, then I have shared with them my life energy, but am connected to their return on investment if it is forthcoming. Now assume that I/the family I have cooked for, all employ a non engaging stance of watching tv while eating. The amount of return on investment is very very small. A mere fraction of the hour or two I invested, is returned to me with a "thank you for dinner" or "that was nice"- spoken as one comes back into awareness of the now...due to the plate being terminated of it's last vestige. What was available? What was the opportunity missed? Well, there was the exploration of the tastes, and textures of my creation. If I had spent that "time" engaged with the meal, my return on investment would have been significant. Had my family done the same...the return on investment for me would have been enormous. Why don't we? Well, it is simply really. We have rushed through our lives so quickly always focused on the next thing rather than the thing in front of us, that we are have ended up in a habit of always being behind. This state of 'always late for everything' has meant we have began to take short cuts...in several ways. Two I'll mention here are 1. we eat fast food which actually doesn't taste yummy if you focus on it intently; and 2. we have gone into the habit of multi tasking, in spite of the fact that the mind we experience through is only capable of experiencing one focused perspective at a time. So what is the solution? Well, make a list....if you are into lists, of all the opportunities that you have today to invest and harvest life energy. Then make a goal for each as to the deliberate effort of focus you would like to have. Do a "balance sheet" at the end of the day, and assess your effectiveness through the day as an investor. Then adjust for the next day. Decide and know this energy is real, and that you are able to refill your quota of life energy. Your mind may not be able to grasp and accept that such as this can be true...but truth has a way of getting through, and when it comes wouldn't it be awesome being the messenger in this case.
