Then, something changed, there was this presence everywhere. It is not within the word, the Creator, but we have to use some word for this presence. The entire creation was like one connected living Being down to the infinite unseen up to the infinite ungrasped. As I was cleaning that garbage can I "felt" how everything, even the garbage, was sacred. Now, if I would hear something like that from another person without experiencing it myself, I would probably think that this person is a good candidate to visit the psychiatrist. But I am not crazy, and I would not tell anywho that I once experienced garbage as sacred. But still, of all the experiences this would be the one. It was like everything was alive and connected, no matter how far it seems to be. The air itself was sparkling with this presence... And it didn't matter where I was, or where did I come from, or what unimportant, little thing I was doing, since everything was what we call "the Creator". But that time I was not only saying those words and thinking it, but experiencing it...
Beautiful, Ankh. I am envious of you
