THE ANT

Any child psychologist will tell you that a very small child can neither problem-solve nor remember its early childhood.  I would like to contest that ‘truth’.  I have a girlfriend who remembers clearly how it was to be born.  Wow, how interesting is that!  I, on the other hand, do not remember my birth, however, I do recall an event at the age of about 4 which has turned out to be quite profound insight into life on plant Earth.

One day, when my brother and sister were at school, I was cruising around the front yard on my own.  I remember I had black shoes, white socks and a lovely little cotton dress which had a delicate smocking across the bodice.

My attention was drawn to the ants that were making their way across the garden path from one garden bed to the other.  As I crouched down on my haunches I studied the ants on their journey and wondered what it would be like to be an ant and go down the ant hole that was located on one edge of the path.

I thought that the only way I could get down that ant hole and experience the life underground was to become an ant.  The thought rather appealed to me.  At that point  I experienced a massive shot of energy that passed right through my body from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.  It was almost like an electric shock but sort of pleasant. With that surge of energy came the realization that, if I became an ant, I would forget that I would forget myself and that once an ant I would not know how to get back to my real self.

I had remembered that event on occasions throughout my life but as I grew older and became more interested in spiritual things, I realized the power and context of this experience.

Are we not magnificent, powerful, creative beings who have put our thought into experiencing a reality that is not really true?  Have we not stepped into our earth suits and truly forgotten the wonder of who we really are?  And does it also not seem difficult to remember our Love, our Oneness, our Joy which are really what we are made of?

We think we are something we are not … human, separate, flawed.  Remember now that you are the most powerful, magnificent being in the Universe.  You know exactly how to truly love everyone and everything for the part they play in your earth game.  You are not separate from anything here … you are One.

Dance, twirl and sing to the truth of you being One, connected, loved and having All.  You are the Great Heart of Love Itself and without you the world would not even exist not to mention to turn on its axis.  You powerful being you!
