separation

It doesn't take a lot to recognize where there is a connection to the divine in someone's action. It's the feeling of awe, it's the feeling of not knowing how someone went from A to B, it's the feeling on genius behind someone's action.

We all know what it is. It is that little "something" that happens between action and inaction. That "something" that we can't place. We don't know what it is, we are grateful for it, and we don't know how to repeat.

Have you ever been in a state where you fail to make a connection, and then suddenly feel lost? You feel that separation from yourself, like you "lost your edge"?

Or you feel like you lost your "train of thought" at times?

What is it that make us keep or lose that connection? How can we get it back? What do we surrender in order to get it back? It's the give and take of action vs inaction, of thought vs action, of male vs female.

God is between every pair of opposites.
God is there where you don't know how to act, or what to think.
God is between male and female, and between female and male.
God is between order and disorder.
God is that creating force between the two opposites, that creates and fills the space between them.
God creates male and female, and connects them.

It's that separation between the opposites that brings them together. Because the perception of the opposite is done through that creating force we call God. Because God is neither male or female.

It just is ... perception ... experience ... life ...
