Putting it On the Shelf of the Mysteries of Your Life: What Are Yours?

• Laurel's Corner

Tonight I was talking to a close friend who is in EBT and she talked about the grace and mystery of life, the spiritual nature of the emotional brain. She said, "Put it on the shelf of the mysteries of mysteries of your life."

If we accept the essential pain of life that we can't nail everything down, that there are mysteries, not just general ones but about the specifics of our life: The lover who didn't really love us -- why can drive us to Brain State 5. Why the live of someone who had so much love to give was cut short? Why no matter what we do we can't concentrate, spell, speak perfectly or remember people's names?  What are the profound losses in your life that you are better off putting on the shelf and accepting that they are, in fact, mysteries?
