Life is shit and then you live. We are made of the earth dust, and back to that dust we eventually transform. And life is what happens in the meantime.
Now it’s not a bad thing or a good thing, actually. It’s about circulation of good. Good food to best absorption to good shit. Lovely water and drink through the body exercise to sweat and piss. Bad food, well, good puke.
If you’re analyzing what life is–this is one true experience of all beings: scat, piss, sweat, snot. If we are made in the image and likeness, maybe we can get some clues as to the spiritual story here.
Shit: you experience life, take what you like and leave the rest. Sometimes life is spicy or rotten, and you have to let it go all the way through for relief. There are times you absorb life, eat it up, and it doesn’t even get halfway down and you know you have to puke it up undigested. There are excrutiating times of life that make you sweat and stink; when/if you realize it–you take a shower of water and let it go down the drain.
Piss, toe-jam, hair in the drain, warts, body dust–all are signs of taking in this wondrous adventure called human life and letting go what no longer serves us. It rests in eternal Gaia who takes all creatures and presses them down with millions of years of long true hugs into jewels.
Let me shine the diamonds of Your love today.
