Providence

Humans like to think that their Mind

is there to assist them in solving problems.

This is a misunderstanding.

The Mind can only create problems.


The act of problem-solving

is only an insistence to douse oneself in the act.

Nothing more.

They miss it not when they begin to solve.

They miss it when they seek problems out.


Those nodding their head eagerly

think they know what I mean.

I am afraid you do not.

The senior, more experienced

who are smiling because their experience has

taught them to

"see the big picture" and

"understand the bigger problem",

are smiling prematurely.


You have no idea.

The rabbit hole goes deep.


Let there be light and there was light.

Let there be life and there was life.


But this magic did not work for anything other

than that, did it?

Everything else has been a result of blinded toiling

and the sacrifice of man's innate.

(Which others called innovation fueled by hard work and ambition,

and have been blindly chasing it.)


Sure the inventors have been remembered.

To this day, their pictures can be found on Wikipedia

with their countenance reflecting reasonable contentedness.

But what about their own lives?

Did they experience bliss and unsolicited peace?

Did they wake up every day with absolute acceptance of their times?


"How could they? Why would they?

That is why they did what they did!

They were too busy and successful!" - you will argue.

Why not, dear friend?


What you label "invention" is something you do not

understand the source of.

What you label "innovation" is something you do not

understand the precursors of.

What you label "successful" is something you do not

understand the price of.


Problem-solve all you want.

Invent and innovate all you want.

But a way exists to do them while being at Peace,

and in accordance with Nature.

Every other way is the way of global excitement, for sure,

but one that is followed by global depression. Without fail.


Problem-solve and you will stay lost in problem-solving.

Allow the Truth through you and you will understand.

Problems will solve themselves.

This is not a promise.

But this is the Way.

To "innovate", "invent", and still Exist supremely.


The timing of it all...

The sheer timing of it all...

How can it be so perfectly lined up?

I, the atheist,

says it is merely coincidence.

I, the human,

Knows

it cannot be anything but

Providence.


Thank you.
