April 22 2008, playlist for “Stumbling Upon Moksha” show on CKMS FM:
The theme of this week’s show was “excuses”-- the justifications we give ourselves to delay being and offering our gifts. As Alanis Morissette reflects, excuses “serve us well”, by keeping us “safe, small and locked in our own [prison] cells”.
But this kind of reasoning only serves us for so long. Eventually, it becomes time to face the illusion of safety and actually SEE, first hand, that there is never any solace offered in not trying. In deed, the only failure is the failure to try-- to just be ourselves, as fully and as honestly as we can, regardless. Now...
It's time!
