What we play is life

Posted on by philipdodson

In the words of legendary jazz musician and singer Louis Armstrong, ‘What we play is life,’ meaning that life is a game, playtime, fun, and a time to create, experiment, and create experiences. Let this moment be as it is intended to be and allow ourselves to immerse totally in it.

Life is a single constantly changing and unfolding now moment. It is the moment in which everything occurs, and the universe always gives us what we need. Everything is as it is meant to be.

We can then go with this and create our art, music, dance, laughter and whatever wants to flow from our soul…let it out to play.

It is important to go with this flow of electricity, energy, and creative juice and not to resist it.

Play, play and play some more. Dance, dance and dance some more. Laugh, laugh and laugh again. Be light, do not be serious and live this moment always. Do not dwell in the past or imagine the future, these are all states of our unconscious mind. Be conscious and create…keep playing the tunes that are the essence of our soul and what makes life a magical experience.

What we play is life.

It’s an inside job

Life is an inside job.

Our inner state is the foundation for what we manifest and perceive in the exterior world.

If we are consumed by our mind and all its repeating thought patterns, then we only see others, events and the exterior world through the judgmental filters that our unconscious mind has created.

Then based on that, we act and react. It becomes a vicious circle and our unconscious judgments are only reinforced, because that is all our mind will allow us to see in our never-ending righteousness.

If we choose to simply witness our thoughts and not energise them, we can then remain conscious and present in this moment. Thus allowing us to see the exterior world as it truly is and without the judgements that cloud all our actions.

We can then enjoy an inner state of peace and acceptance of what is.

Suffering comes from our unconscious righteousness that our fragile ego needs.

Our entire existence is only perceived and controlled inside us and we control that alone. It is our choice as to how we want to see the exterior world and what we want to manifest in it, act and react to.

Sort the inside out and everything is as it is and we can enjoy peace.
