I couldn't sleep last night so I thought I'd get this off my chest... i got so caught up in my head just thinking about how my spirit feels too big for my body... and I'm bite-sized compared to the many people walking this earth! and to think that our society wants to be smaller and thinner! it's actually frustrating though to try to reconcile this! either i need a bigger body or a smaller spirit!! It's so easy to let thoughts like these make me go crazy, especially when most of the time I can even verbalize the depths I feel. So I think the best way for me to guard from this craziness in my head is just to keep things very simple and keep my feet on the ground... I'm really seeing so much wisdom in the saying "less is more" and "say less and be more." I always thought more was more and less was less. well, that's it for now. I'm so appreciative to have a place like this to share openly with people who I know understand these depths that go beyond words... So I'm off to start my day. Blessings to all today!

Hey Chard - Anyone that I know who believes that more is more is working 2 jobs to prove it. More is just more, but less is blessed.

Hi Chard!

I would like to suggest that you need neither a larger body nor a smaller spirit, but rather an Expanded Consciousness with which to fully embrace and express the greatest potential of both!

Hari OM!

You could eat a lot of heavy food and get really big and slow down spiritual progress too. . .oh maybe not.

You just expand your consciousness beyond your body, but still treat your body like a pet that you love.

There was a guy named Les. When he died he wanted his headstone to read:
"No Les No More"
