Bubbles \(^_^)/ I see you there. Whom are you hiding from? Behind the veil of mist, I can see you walk along and sometimes walk ahead of me. After having hidden 'A walk with my words', after having culling the appearance of those treasured images from timeline, after being denied access from all these mediums, I can still see you walking with me. That, is the very reason why I let go of all these mediums upon realising that they are of no good than just causing bitterness in the guise of a sweet bridge.
I have and you have seen far worse than these in our previous distancing. These mediums never existed, still we came back together. So, why bother now? In the end, this is soul bonding. Well, I came across an interesting incident. The story of the fountain and the electric pump.
I have an aquarium at home. It is also the source of sound for flowing water. Both create positive vibrations at home as believed by you, me and many of our ancestors. It actually does. We have tried and tested it as you know. So, this person saw the setup and questioned me, "How do you pump the water to simulate the sound of flowing water?". I said, "It is done by an aquarium pump that pumps out 1800 litres of water per hour creating the much needed sound effect. You must try it. When there is absolute silence, it actually helps relax yourself".
"Didn't you know that the electric motor causes a hum that is creating negative vibrations?", asked the person. I replied, "Yes, I know. But, this was the only option. I cannot sit and use a hand pump to simulate a fountain. Can I?". We both took sometime and the person said, "Do you hear the noise coming from the pump? That gentle hum. Does it not irritate you? I mean, although the fish makes us feel relaxed, the sound of the running water is relaxing, yet, that sound that is coming from the pump is spoiling everything. If it was me, I would have removed the entire aquarium and fountain setup".
I intervened saying, "the fish are pets depending on us for food and shelter. I, depend on the fish not to entertain me, but to bond with them and create harmony whenever I see them or spend time with them. It is a mutual benefit. As for the sound of the running water, the fish may look at it as their natural habitat and for me it is like a perfect theme to sit and meditate amidst this chaotic outside world. As for the hum, I heard it the moment I set this up. I know it is going to be there but, all that matters is, what we focus upon. Doesn't it?"
The person was quick to respond saying, "Hmmmmmmm." I got a loophole and quickly started talking saying, "Now, you gave a humming sound. Does that mean I have to throw you out for giving that humming sound? This is like, I started to see the fish and hear or focus on hearing the sound of the running water and it is serving the purpose for me and for people who visit me. When we have two positives(the fish and the running water), why focus on the one and only negative (the pump's noise)? We all strive to attain positivity. But, we do fail in attaining it because of being attracted or clinging to one strand of negativity even if we are presented with a bundle of positive aspects. Now, I do not blame you. Do not mistake."
The person intervened asking, "So, you say I was looking at only the negatives? Did I not say I heard the sound of the running water and also the fish was relaxing?" I paused to get this exact question from the person. "This, is our problem. I paused to give you a chance to defend yourself or to be precise, to let you ask me this exact question. I did not target you saying you were negative all the time. When you started, you first mentioned about the positives about the fish and the fountain. At that moment, you were satisfied. That is where we should remain anchored no matter what if our pursuit is real happiness in Life. For, real happiness is inside us and it is best felt and realised only when an external or rarely an internal element(s) of trouble pops up in Life to let us face it, be pained by it and finally defeat it. The result we get out of all this is happiness in its truest form. But, you veered off course from the pursuit of happiness and moved on to the negative of this setup, took that negativity all the way into your heart, mind, body and soul and finally decided to remove the entire setup as such. Didn't you?" The person replied, "Yes. So?"
"So,.... I did not say you were negative and I am positive. It is about balancing things." The person quickly said, "Oh, come on. I have heard enough about balancing from you. Tell me something new." I waited and said, "Alright. I do agree that what you spoke now is normal human reflex to protect oneself when endangered physically or mentally. Although you took the positives first to your heart, mind, body and soul, you can be happy with that because it did make you happy. Rather, you switched and went to the negative, clinged onto it and finally decided to remove it entirely. By doing this, you did not lose focus towards positivity but also lost your pursuit towards real happiness in Life. My question is, when you have the possibility to live with the positives of the known, why do you opt to go to the negativity and abandon camp? Tomorrow, you will be faced with the unknown, you do not know if it is positive or negative, and, when you think you cannot live with the negativity of the known, So, do you think you can live with the negativity of the unknown? I ask about negativity because, I wanted to think in your lines of '...removing just because of the presence of negativity...'. So, do not mistake again", I said.
What is all this all about? You may ask. So,..... Not you, not me, not even our ancestors, Nobody is perfect. At least till now. I have my positives and negatives. You do have yours. Although I know your negatives from long back, I never let them bother me. I rather stand by all those positives that make Life happier for us in our together forever. I agree you do the same. But, let us safely leave it to the circumstances for whatever has happened and focus on positivity in us.
Again, nobody is perfect. At least till now. So, going by that, until perfection is attained 100%, let us unite towards staying with positivity and not abandon just for the few strands of negativity in something or someone. In fact, we do lose few strands of hair everyday. But, we don't shave our heads off because of that. We do hope that new hair is growing and replacing the fallen ones. If we can do that to our hair, why not do it for anything and everything in Life? Why not do it for Life? For Love? Why not? -rPhoenix
