Proud To Be An Ice Cube

I have seen some gems lately.  Here is another one, an analogy that absolutely rocked me to my core.  And I don't mind stealing these awesome bits from people.  Hell, even Oprah does it.  She gets a lot of hers from Maya Angelou.  And Maya got it from her mother and grandmother.  And they got it from someone special.  I don't know if anything is original, really.  Whether or not we are open to hearing it...now that's the key.

Oprah: I think the biggest question that everybody has is where is God in all of this? Your answer is?

Brian Weiss: I find God everywhere in this. I was meditating on this one day, and had a metaphor of ice cubes like people. Ice cubes, they’re solid, they have sides, but if you melt them with heat energy, they just disappear into water, they become water. So if ice cubes are floating in water, and you heat the water, everything is water, the individuality has disappeared. And if you keep adding heat energy, even the water disappears and it all become steam. Invisible but it’s still the H20 molecule vibrating rapidly. It’s still there. And I think people are like the ice cubes. We’re the solid part, the condensed part — we think we are separate from everybody else. We’re not, because if you heat us with love energy, not heat energy, but love energy, we melt into a spiritual sea. Spirit and water has always been equated. And if you keep heating with love, you find God. God is the steam, God is beyond the steam, the organizing Wisdom that’s in every atom of our being, as well as every atom of this chair. This is who we are. God is in all of us. And so were not so separate, so distinct, we’re not different from each other. We’re all souls, and souls are all connected.
