Purpose is what’s set at the genesis. So before its even started the purpose is there. Like a proposal. So, for everything is, there was a purpose set for it. But the interesting thing is that that thing that now IS doesn’t have to even be aware of this purpose set for its creation. In fact, maybes its whole purpose was to come into a state of being of NOT KNOWING its purpose and thus getting to “discover” this purpose as it unfolds in a series of events that seem to be happening to and around it, but that it is also participating in.
An this participation is a curious thing, for what urges this being to participate in these particular things. For no seems reason this creation keeeps finding itself working on molecular level experiments, they have been interested in them for as long as they can remember, they’ve always thought about the microscopic exchanges going on in everything they see.
Or that creation over there, they always find themselves in and around the designing of clothes. Clothes designed in ways that actually can say something about the society it was made in. They have always thought about expression in clothing.
Or that one over there, has always had a knack, they say, for getting plants to grow and keeping them alive and thriving. They’ve always had what might be called full-blown relationships with plants.
Where do these drives, these senses of curiosity come from?
You go and ask them and even they don’t have an answer; they can point to certain memories in life that the remember standing out and pique this interest by WHY that interest was piqued there is no answer.
Many rock stars from the 70s and 80s will tell you that when they saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show that their whole world changed and they discovered that what the Beatles were doing is what they want to do. It was like a phone rang in their hearts and it was the front office making the pre-arranged wake-up call to them to remember what they were here for.
But, why would God, or whoever it may be that sets this intention want to have a Rock’n’Roll upheaval in the world? Why wouldn’t He? Both questions are just as valuable as each others and are actually the answer to the other. Why would He, well why wouldn’t He. And why wouldn’t He, well, why would He?

Have you ever accidentally walked into a store aisle and found something that you’ve been looking for and never would have guessed to look there?
Or physically bumped into someone, or knocked their drink over and after apologizing and sharing the pleasantries you find you two are quick friends, almost like you’ve known each other for all of time.
Or someone gives you a gift, maybe even a child handing you a drawing they made that seems like just a little gift, but then upon reviewing it later you find the deepest meaning, somehow this little gift that seemed to just be playful now reminds you of something that you forgot ages, or even lifetimes, ago.
These little moments are small scale examples, or reminders, of what birth is into this human life. You were birthed into the aisle, seemingly by accident, yet if you look but one second you find that this is exactly where you wanted to be, for here is the reminder of who you really are. Like you were only pretending to forget so you could have the experience of what it’d be like to discover yourself.

To remember, to recall, to recollect, to repair — re -pair. In all of these it is understood that what is remember, recalls, recollected, repair was before a thought, an act, a complete collection, a whole coupling and that some sort of separation what experienced in the form of seeming to forget what was, and always has been.
Jesus said this when he said “before Abraham was I am.”
Life is an experiment in forgetting for the purpose of remembering. We’re here in what seems to be an accident on purpose.
Think about any experience you’ve had that you may refer to as a life-lesson, an epiphany, or a moment of clarity. When that incident happened and you awoke to a new paradigm, a new perspective it was like you always knew it and you can’t believe you didn’t see that before and now you can’t unsee it. When you lok back through all you worldly memories you see it there too, you can’t not see it anymore; and you see how you even knew it back then, but you just weren’t looking, it was right there! It really is like you actually ALWAYS knew it, you just thought you forgot.
