Time is such an elusive thing. It gets away from you! It dominates you, and yet how does it do that? You make lists in order to master time. You try to set priorities in order to master time. Whether you follow your lists or not, time seems to get the better of you.

And so it is with space. There is too much or not enough. You try to arrange it. You try to keep it one way or another.

Both space and time seem to have their own say. You try and try to keep them in place, and, yet, time and space speed, and sometimes you just can't keep up.

If you race time and space, you won't be the winner, or you won't be the winner for long.

Must time and space dominate your lives? Of course, time and space are the relative that you are dealing with. You may say you are dealing with people as well. Of course, the people you interact with are yourself in one shape or another. They too are trying to keep up with time and space. People seem to be your biggest issue, yet it may be that time and space are.

Of course, sometimes people are in your space. And sometimes people take up your time. Those same people, if they came without space and time and without their physical attributes, they would be easy for you. All that interferes with your love would fall away. All that interferes would not exist. You would become two souls meeting as One.

What are some of the things in the world that do irk you? Speeding cars. Litter on the streets. People talking with their mouths full or making slurping noises.

And so your senses come into play. Counting is with your fingers and your toes. Counting is touch. All the senses are beautiful. It is your mind that would make something else of them. The five senses are your great intermediaries in life, yet the mind takes over. Your mind tells you what is worth keeping and what is not, and, yet, as strong as your mind is, you sometimes escape it.

What is the missing factor? Some might say it is habit. Some might call it will.

You would like to be above anger, and yet you find yourself angry, perhaps time and time again. You cannot contain yourself. Yet is not anger willful? Is it will or lack of will that makes you help yourself to anger? What incurs your anger?

Does your mind actually make your choices for you? Does the heart? What makes you tick?

What does rule you, beloveds? What makes you swim in the dark. What makes you use a blindfold?

Whatever, come nearer to Me. Stay close to Me. In truth, Our hearts are One. Your thoughts, fostered by the world, pull you off track and unsettle Our arrangement. Let Our minds be One as well. Come closer to My way of thinking, for I earnestly seek you to see in new ways. Be open to My heart, and be open to My mind, for I would like you to be attuned to all that is good and true. I speak of your inheritance. My heart and mind are for you.

The reality is that not even My mind and heart are separate, one from the other. Our One Heart and Mind embrace its One Self in the same manner that you and I, as One, embrace.
