Even though it is never my intention to knock anything down, I think I know what you mean. When things are seen as they are, there may seem to be the action of negating everything, and that is not entirely false. But there is no intention to do it. If you see what is there, there is no desire to continue playing games. Like seeing a rope you thought to be a snake. Can you look at the rope and feel fear anymore? Can you ever see the snake again?

'I'd rather be with God', is the example. i really wonder why a child would say that. Unusual thing to say. How do we be happy with what we have? I suppose by removing all feeling of lack, all conditioned notions of what we should be or have to be happy. Or just , like you say, act on what we want to happen and find joy in the journey itself. Good to see your posts again. Eagerly awating the one on 'finding love'(relationships). Am sure you're gonna knock down the concept of 'need of love' , itself , but still waiting.. god bless We can’t be , where we already are, as most of the times we are unhappy here and happiness seems to lie in what is in the future or past. ‘I’d rather be with God’, is the example. i really wonder why a child would say that.
