Quote of the Day

"...But y'all can see me now cos you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind" --Gorillaz/Del The Funky Homosapien: Clint Eastwood

My take (if you care): As you guys should know by now, I believe this world isn't real. I believe it's an illusion as A Course In Miracles states. I believe our minds made this place and our bodies. I also believe that we don't really see with our eyes as Del states in this song. Our minds have just made it seem that way. "But how come 'blind' people can't see?" You might ask. I say, "shut the eff up!" Just kidding. I don't know. I think we just imagined ourselves in certain situations and have accepted it without much/any, or more importantly, the right questions. My analogies usually go back to dreams. In dreams we think we're seeing the outside world with our eyes. If we blink or close our eyes in our dreams, we think we see nothing. But what body is there that does the blinking or sleeping? We're just dreaming it all even though it seems real.

My point? As usual, nothing. To me, these thoughts are just more reinforcement that we don't need to take this world and our so-called-lives so seriously. Enjoy it! The more we perceive things correctly from the right state of mind, the sooner we'll realize what situation we've put ourselves into and how to get out of it.
