What if?

In our world we are oriented to get things done. To be better. To fix the world. To fix ourselves. To improve. To achieve. The thought of all that makes me feel "less than" already. This is the world of the ego, the little me that wants to be better and more special than all the other little mees. It is a world that is always going from unfinished to finished. A world that feels incomplete and is looking for completeness.

What if, instead of going from incomplete to complete, that we saw the world as already complete and just moving to another complete?

Uncomplete to complete or
Complete to complete?

Every moment a complete moment with no changes necessary. It already exists - why couldn't it be seen as complete? Actually, what else could it be except complete? There is no such thing as half a moment, or an unperfect moment. The moment is the moment just as it is. So we could as easily live from one complete moment to the next complete moment. Think how much easier it would be to live this way. Never needing to "fix" anything.

Just like a wave arises on the ocean, in completeness, and recedes, another arises, each one complete. Because it exists. We don't try to fix the wave and make it a better one or a bigger one or a softer one. Why are we any different?
