Life is mostly tips - of icebergs floating on seas of Mystery!

After many sinking experiences I began subscribing to this notion:  Whenever I suppose I have someone or some situation all figured out or mostly sized up it is best to say to myself, "Wait...shift back a ways, for what I see is only the tip on top of most of the reality of this experience!" 

I instruct myself to dive deeper through imagination, dreams, wonder, and wondering to know more....and more.  Even then, perspective, reflection, refraction, and filtering come into play.  And no matter how much I know, I am ecstatic to realize that most of All-There-Is is Mystery!

This is an incredible tip…so true.  Life is Mystery.  Our minds only think we've got it figured out.  Diving deeper can reveal so much.  Thanks for sharing this.

“most of All-There-Is is Mystery!”Thanks for sharing this great Tip.

How true this is… I seem to keep myself amused - sometimes for days -  thinking I can figure something out and that I can discover the answer only to find that I must revisit yet again the same situation with an open mind and curiousity. I aspire to remain always curious from the start. However, I often skip along short cuts of understanding that lead me nowhere and then I am required to  back track.

Yet I notice from your writings that probably you would insist upon generating abundant fun during those occasional visits to 'nowhere' and delight in transforming your tracking back into new alternative ways of life-questing onwards.

lol yes this is so… I see life and living as an adventure and there is such wonder, delight and learning around every corner. Still, I have this little inner voice that will soemtimes get hooked on figuring things out instead of just observing what “is” with wonder and curiousity. Maybe it is my awareness of this little irksome part of me that keeps me writing about embracing the sidebars and side-trips in daily living. I think your blog posting ”Everyday signs form a non-ordinary message to shift” is a great example of staying open and curious to life's tips while generating abundant fun!

I love this thought so much, it is such good advice on how to live your life and when something happens looking deeper then what is just on the surface!
