What if our average life span is 500 or 1000 years? That means those of us in our 50’s are actually still in childhood or adolescence. Just a more wise version of it.
Now I know many of you are thinking “I don’t want to live that long.” but that is only because you believe getting older is fraught with frailty, shrinking height, mental decline, and eventually diapers.
But what if, like in the animal kingdom, old age is never old? You live, live, live until bam! You’re dead. Have you ever seen an old eagle, or a hippo in a retirement watering hole, a jackrabbit sporting a bald head and cane, or a lizard gnarled by arthritis?
Now this blog can go on and on about the atrocities of the standard diet, pollution, big pharm’s evil agenda, etc. But, no - if you read my blogs, you know it’s always about how you create your world and its constant reflection back at you of your assumptions.
So, let’s talk agelessness. Yes, it exists. All around you. The very earth we live on is how old? And with no sign of slowing down. Mountains, oceans, the sun, forests, universes - in other words, Mother Nature. She is the epitome of a defiant Goddess who isn’t ever going to tolerate constraint or limitations.
Did you know that in the true animal kingdom, that isn’t influenced by humans, cancer doesn’t exist? Now, I agree with the movie “What the Bleep Do We Know?” and their theory that what we look for we create so there is no true unbiased studies - but I do believe that old age, cancer, etc. isn’t part of Mother Nature. Simply because Mother Nature is a constant example and invitation to live larger and more limitless than we are playing with.
One other thing. There is the You that is always available anytime you want to turn inward. It has been by your side from the get go - not ever once taking a lunch break. Despite you being cold, it’s never cold. Despite you being scared, it’s never scared. And despite your constant aging with the passing years and decades - it doesn’t age or change.
Perhaps that is where our focus should be. Perhaps the fountain of youth has always been right here. Perhaps instead of aging - we just experience the exiting and entering of infinite chapters of our existences.
Hmmmm.
