I am awake at 4 30 am because I feel God has just spoken very clearly to me about something. Recently, I have been starting my day off with a prayer. In it I sate that I am ready to learn through love. I release the idea that pain has a purpose. I am born to live a peaceful life. I release the purpose of pain, and I received the purpose of love. Sounds nice right? And makes sense. Yet for some reason I feel I, and the majority of humans, have an unconscious block to the true meaning of this. Everyone always says we wouldn’t know happiness with pain, or we wouldn’t know bliss without fear. But I believe that that is total bull shit. So, here I am, unpacking pleasure as our birthright.
