The Biggest Game There Is......

When we decide to make the commitment to grow, expand, refine, heal, explore ourselves we often imagine a life without struggle, growing to a place of constant happiness, trouble free bliss. Then, as we grow we keep wondering when will that happen, and why does life keep making things complicated?Bad news.There is no end to the challenge of life. As with any skill, as you get better at it you become bored with smaller things and want a bigger challenge. If you are learning anything, you will always want to play at your edges, that is where the fun is.The great thing about getting skillful at life (at being you) is that you can enjoy the play even more, have bigger wins, and you can grow your capacity in the art and expression of what you do.I see this kind of elevated experience in long-term Inquiry Method practitioners. They say things like “everything is going to hell and I am having so much fun” or “I was hurting yesterday and then I let it go” or “the less effort I make the better it gets”…There will always be new losses and challenges in life. You will lose your life, your body, people you love, pets, they will stop manufacturing your favorite jeans or change the cut, your city is changing, the world is changing…The question is not about what happens to you or what you experience, or feel, or do, but it is about the beauty with which you deal with it all. Why not get great at the biggest game there is?
