A Theory
Maybe I’m just dabbling in exoticism? Maybe not, but I have this belief about the grand scheme of things; the big picture, if you will. For years I’ve believed that we, in life, can be equated to beams of light. Each beam shines in a certain, unique way. Some may fizzle, some are super jagged, some are straight and narrow, and some are so bright that others are drawn towards while others are grotesquely appalled. Each, though, has the possibility to shine greatness. With all this, some beams shine parallel to others, never touching, while others cross producing a dynamic brightness. This dynamic brightness can be either, or both, positive and negative. It’s never known until the rays intersect.
You know when you meet someone and you just click? Or you lock eyes with someone in the produce department of your local groceria, and you are instantly drawn? You know what it feels like to sit next to someone in a waiting room and just feel “it”? Or you get a prank phone call and that prankster ends up being one of your best friends for life? You know? Kismet. Destiny. Beams of Light Intersecting.
Then one day it happens. A once positive energy source, turns negative. A deflection is in the works and it’s so uncontrollable. You can’t help it, stop it, or avoid it. After all, you, a beam of light, can not fully control [your fortune]; there’s something more in the grand scheme of things. You just have to have faith that the Greatest Beam will shine in the right direction and even when you don’t shine in the right direction you are hopeful that, willingly, this Beam will shine purely, with truth, and affirmation of life. There’s a faith that each light possesses that allows [it] to have confidence that the Greatest Beam is who He is and that He will do what He promises to do. Faith. Hope. Confidence. Brilliance.
It’s a complicated theory. I don’t even fully get it, but I don’t think I’m quite supposed to really. I just felt the need to finally put it together for myself. At this point in life I have been feeling that I don’t have enough beam points. I often feel like I am blazing in a straight line, not crossing, not bumping, not even feeling heat from the others. This is just a feeling, I know, because there are many, constant criss-crosses. I’m thankful for those intersections and I have a resounding faith that my own illumination is strong, assured, heartening, steadfast, and true.
