Calling all adventurers!
What follows might not be thought to investigate anything about truths. I wish to expand things by Investigating Fiction Filled with Truths, so in a way it really is in the right section. Every time I write anything for another soul, I can see reflections of truths in myself. With each comment offered to me, I am hopeful that we share truths among us. It might not seem apparent yet, but trust me when I say, we definitely WILL be investigating truths, even if the story is not real…
Just a Bag
I wish to take you on an imaginary adventure. This is a special adventure that requires your mind, as well as mine, to get to the treasure at the end. The first thing one must do is find a comfortable space and gather up our favorite relaxing snacks. I’m sipping on a cup of hot coffee, sweetened with rich French Vanilla cream. Ready? Ok!
Close your virtual eyes to the distractions that cloud our thoughts…
Imagine if you will a well-worn path before you. On your arm, you carry a bag. I want you take a moment to create within your mind a bag of your choosing, but let me give you some information you will need in designing your bag. This adventure requires that you must carry only one item, the bag. You can imagine it to be of decent size, as one can place anything desired within its depths. But there are rules surrounding this bag. Anytime we move from one place to another, we must only carry one item. Since we cannot leave the bag behind, it should be pretty clear that it will be our only equipment.
**A beautiful thing about this bag is its ability to always know our needs, therefore we need attempt to pack any necessities, nor dig around searching within its depths. One must simply reach in and grasp! I love this feature!**
Now, whatever you need out of the bag, it must be retrieved only after you put the bag down. Once you no longer need the item, you must either dispose of it or you can place it back within this bag. It gets a little tricky though, because even if you pulled the item out, it may disappear after you return it to the bag, never to be seen again.
This bag will sustain you, from now until we reach the treasure. Meaning everything from food, clothing, and sleeping materials can be retrieved from within your bag. The truths about your bag is revealed each and every time you reach in for anything. The bag shapes itself to fit the needs of the one bearing it! It has a love for you, far from any other bag you have ever had!
With this mental picture, create a bag in your mind that has been crafted by someone so very in love with you! Would they not painstakingly design something of great beauty for you? Take the time to memorize each loving stitch placed on your bag, and the pattern etched carefully upon its surface. Imagine your loved one, if you will, as a masterful tailor; designing a bag just for you!
As we journey, there will be some adjustments in the beginning, as we get used to stopping every time one needs something out of their bag. Sometimes along our adventure, it may seem difficult to only carry one big bulky item, but you will also discover that your bag weighs nothing at all! Please enjoy the peace of not worrying about what to wear or eat. Also, appreciate no dishes, dirty laundry, or grocery shopping; not to mention skipping out on the two days needed for planning and packing said bag. Don’t forget that we travel together, so there will be benefits to relying on each other, and sharing tasks.
There will be times one may become frustrated, not being able to juggle more than one item. These may be times that draw us all to slow down, stop, and possibly sit down. We will only be as fast as our slowest members. Have faith that your bag carries wisdom, so we can trust in something other than our own strengths …
I will meet you here in a full 7 sunrises…
P.S. If you might drop me a note to confirm your desire to assist me, it will strengthen my resolve to depart on the date chosen…
