spiritual notes to myself- Hugh Prather pg 117

Ur spiritual efforts give u no privileges in the world, and yet u seem locked in the world; and all ur pleasures and pains, and all the experiences that are important to u, r in the world.
What difference does it make if there is another world, another reality? Y not just deal w/ what seems real and forget awakening?
Because that is how u have always answered this question.
U have played out this tradegy a thousand times before.
Yet God does wait for u. And those who r awakened await as well ur joyous homecoming.
Death insn´t the door to this celebration. The efforts u make in the present usher u in.
If u will but try a little longer, u will see each attachment to the world, and release them gadly. Once u r no longer conflicted, the sustaining arms of love will lift u up to light and joy.
And this little dream of disaster will fade from ur mind, and all who were there will be w/ u now.
