It's as though I'm losing parts of my self as I age.
First it was my youth and then my children, my career, alot of money and each time I let go of those parts of my persona the better I felt. Personality is a choice. I've chosen several. The one I currently use is one of a loving, caring person who can be depended on. She also has a little adventure in her soul, but she is finding better and better ways of utilizing that particular talent.
As I age further I may let go of those too. How I am seen is not always how I want to be seen. But when I am seen, I rejoice.
What is left when all these coverings fall away is the true Self. The Self that is all of us. And we recognize each other as a thirsty traveler recognizes water in a desert.
It matters not what coverings I wear, I am safe in all ways now and no longer need to protect the Self. This is truly the end of War amongst mankind.
Then, it's a dance of veils and when the last veil drops or we end the dance, we die to dance another dance in other places with others.
