The shadow and the life

The life you think you are having is but a shadow of the life you were born to lead, and your purpose is to come out of that shadow and into a fuller knowledge of yourself, which we will summarise as life in abundance. the way to know that glorious life is to experience it: there is no other way. Even though everyone's experience has subtle differences of trajectory: the way to experience it can now be made clear.
That way is not the provenance of any one religion or of atheism. It cannot be owned. It cannot be boxed without losing the essence of itself. It cannot be reduced to words, though they may point the way.
So let us start with some good news. The Good News is, the Good News is that you are not alone. You never were alone. There is one-who-walks-beside-you and that one-who-walks-beside-you was always beside you, is beside you now and will always be beside you, until the end of time.
This one beside you may apparently take many forms or remain formless. The form does not matter. But you can tune into this form in the here and now. There is absolutely nothing to prevent you from doing so, save the chimeras that even now are dissipating. Glory is all around you. You are glorious.
