One old spirit asked me. Are you playing a game of chess? I was looking questioning at him. Was I, was I playing a game of chess. I didn't knew the rules of chess. So why should I play a game without knowing the rules of it? I asked it to that old spirit. He said: You are not playing a game without rules. Make them.
Do we make our own rules in our short physical lives? Or do we live by others, their rules...
If I understood it right, we have to make our own rules in order to play our games. Take care of those games we want to play, if we dislike the game entirely then change the game. It is quite funny that we are always thinking inside the box while outside the box are also many possiblities into living our lives.
So yes I am playing a game of chess, only my game of chess. With my rules and my thoughts and my energy.
That old spirit was smiling at me when I told him I would invent my own rules. Telling me that I already did, that we already did. We have chosen the rules of our games already, but we sometimes forget that we are always allowed to change the rules if need be.
What game are you playing? With which rules?
The spirits aren't making rules for us, they are inviting us to make them. To search out our own kind of games, playfully learn to involve our soul and spirit. To understand the power we hold into our hands.
I thanked the old and smiling spirit for it's wise words and loving energy. He left with one last gentle touch before he said. Don't forget, all rules are made for a good reason, but sometimes forget them and just enjoy.
