Bliss

 

Joseph Campbell called it bliss, but that is only one specific way of looking at it.

It is that, but it is so much more.

It is what fills you, surrounds you, inundates you.

It is what you had in the womb on a scale humans seldom dare to dream of. 

You don't earn it, or deserve it. You can't make it, or own it.

You fall into it and it becomes a part of you, regulating the beating of your heart, the spinning of your thoughts, the space around you. It is an awakening of all your senses and understanding.

You do not own it. You cannot buy it. You really have no control over it except to open yourself and accept it when you become aware that it IS.

You may only get glancing experiences, but that is enough. And you may be swallowed whole by it without even realizing it.

However it comes to you, it goes beyond understanding into being.
