The simplest way to turn your Life into something better is to learn to get in tune with the Life. And the simplest way to tune into Life is to get into a love affair with Life.

By love affair I mean the element that is present when you are attracted to a person of the opposite sex. When such thing does happen, when we feel a strong pull towards someone, it is as if every cell of your body is becoming alive, the energy of your body changes. That experience gives pleasure, but there is more than pleasure in it, there is an element of joy, it cannot be expressed, however you know what it is.

Have you also noticed, that when you are experiencing this aliveness suddenly everything becomes wonderful, at least you feel so. When you are experiencing the aliveness triggered by your beloved, event and people which otherwise seem difficult appear to be easy to deal with. So the element that gives you a shot of aliveness is the feeling that you want to be with the beloved, and while you are being with them, you want the time to stop.

However the question is, do you need a person of opposite sex to trigger your aliveness? Can’t you get into a love affair with Life? Life is already ready to make an affair with you’re your existence is the proof of that, but can you accept Life as your beloved?

As an idea it appears wonderful – get into a love affair with Life. Unfortunately very few people can translate into living. And the reason is that most people are confused about what is Life. People confuse Life with their Life-story. Your story is about your possessions, talents, skills, relations and incidences that occurred at some point in your Life. Your story is not your Life. I do not recommend getting into love affair with your story. I ask to get into love affair with Life.

The difference between Life and your story of Life is the difference between a cinema screen and the movie that is running on the screen. Life is the screen which allows different stories to unfold, but it is not the movie which is showing. Movies come and go, screen remains – untouched by the content of the story. It is not spirituality, nor psychology it is plain practical fact that the story of your Life is not the Life.
