You take your health as an indictment of you. You take it as a label. You take it as you take your dress size. You take it as a stamp upon you. You take it as an indicator of you.

If you have illness, you might as well take it as a language.

Take it as a door you are opening.

Take it as a metaphor.

What does it allude to?

Look to the language of illness.

Your body has a cold. Your body has a fever. Your body has something to be cut out. Your body has something to be added.

Look to the language of life.

There is nothing in Human life that cannot be a story told to you.

The entire Human life is a metaphor. It is an exploration of Truth. It is Truth retold. It is a bone you wrest all the marrow from.

Life is an event that you go to.

It is not what you wear that is important.

What is important is with what eyes you look at the event you attend. How you look at life is the making of it, and you do make it what you will.

Much is made of life. It is all made-up. It is all a production. Now think of what you produce.

We can say that you are a super market. You have a produce section. You have a meat department. You have canned goods and boxed goods and glib instant-ready goods. You have a hot foods section and a deep freeze. In which department do you prevail? From which department do you make your selections?

You choose what of yourself you offer.

Consider what you offer.

Put a fruit stand outside.

Assemble beautiful fruit out there.

If you have an awning, pull it up.

Greet the sun. You know it is there.

Know that where you are is beautiful in the sun or the shade.

All the customers and passersby have come to you for a reason. They have sought you out.

All the people in your life are there for something. Perhaps they have something to give you, but certainly you have something to give them.

Consider that you are an auctioneer. What do you offer?

Consider that you are the bidder. On what do you bid?

What catches your attention? On what does sunlight fall? Whose eyes do you meet? On what does your eye alight? What note do you hum. What song do you hear? What color of the rainbow are you shining today?

What is your purpose today? Never mind tomorrow right now. Mind today. What is your purpose today?

Leap out of bed and be a consultant to the world today. Be a silent observer. Be an extoller. Be a radiant light. Be a stimulant and be a calmer. Give out to the world that which you would like to take in. Be yourself that which you seek. If you seek happiness, give it. You do give what you seek.

Seek pain no longer, for you have sought it. You have been on the lookout for it. Now be on the watch for joy, for it is joy that is rightfully yours, and rightfully yours to give, and rightfully yours to receive.

Turn your face to joy today. It has been seeking you. Get out front where it can see you, and you can see it. Joy is the truth of life, and it is the truth of you. Radiate joy today. In sickness or in health, radiate joy. Be a giver of joy today, and thus you are a gift of joy to the world, and the King has come.
