What we are looking for, is what is looking..

Life is there to be lived..

Right, so. One can say this, if one knows how to live this life -
meaning, you are actually (fully) satisfied with your / this life and have received the tools / answers etc to know how to and you are content as such?

Here my view (key) on this:

We live to worship.

We are all like a bunch of flowers. And even if you have all of the same sorts - each individual flower's colour and shape and smell will be different.

A flower: here today, gone tomorrow. Who decides how long this flower is going to exist? smell? bloom? grow? wither?

What does a flower do? I mean, you can eat some of the species. Some rather not put your teeth in it. Of some plants you can make fragrance of it. Flowers usually are a pleasant sight - if they manage to get into full blossoms.

Life in itself is more than meets the eye. In fact, I'd say, the unseen world is more than we can fathom.
It is a proven fact that there are multiple dimensions, of which we barely touch our comprehensions in the 3rd. Let alone the other ones (who knows how many other dimensions there are)

There is an unknown (or. for some, a known) source who knows it all: The ruler of the dimensions, we call Him?

Would it not be logical to worship the One, who rules, above all?

If He is all knowing, all true, all loving. Would not He be the one who deserves our worship?
Even if we don't know everything. Because we are only human beings and will never be able to know everything.

Would I not think that He'd be the savest source for me to offer Him my worship?

Where do I put my money? Would I not be careful to whom I give my money? I mean, I wouldn't flush 100$ down the drain?

Worship is the essence of our being. In worship, things start happening, start taking place.
moments move on.

In worship, we
encourage
uplift
build better
exchange help to each other (giving without expecting something in return)

We give
we elevate
acknowledge that this ruler, G'd is a higher entity than ourselves.

So what good will come from it, if we
elevate
praise
worship
a human being, who has the same abilities (gaining limited knowledge)
and outcome (physical death)
as ourselves?

When I worship, it takes the importance of of me, and I elevate that which I worship into a higher place than myself.

Which means I lower myself automatically in front of the other identity.

But, here's the thought: why bow down to another human being, who is, like me, just the same?
Not more, or less?

If the ruler of all, the overseer of the dimensions, does it not make sense that I refuse to put anything or anyone above Him?
- not another human being
- not myself
- not the evil one (in all it's forms and forces like idolatry, witchcraft, money etc)

There is:
participate - consume - being entertained
vs
creating something yourself - anticipate - be inspiring
every one of us can switch from one to the other - that's why people 'search'?

Balance. Maybe we searchers arrive, once we master this?

The whole Universe we live in rests on rules. Still.
If I drop something, it falls to the ground. Unless I fly to the moon. It is good to honour those rules.

"...Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless..."

from 2. Peter 3

PS the subject line quotes St. Francis of Assisi / or Rumi. Or anyone else for that matter. Google seems to change sources regularly.
