The Other Flashes

Let's see, we have talked alot about the blueflash...that moment or day on which you see your destiny, your purpose in life unfold in front of you....we have just begun the very, very difficult and wonderful discussion of the pinkflash, that time when you are caught, like it or not, in a furious but splendid rush of romance....

There are two other special creschendos of life...the greenflash, and the whiteflash....

We will now bonce around among these four great moments of life....the book on all this is due for summer, 2010, so just hold on....

Green flashes are a matter of scientific proof....the small bright flash of green light as the sun disappears over the horizon on an exceptionally clear night horizon....I saw one once...on the beach in Oahu, Hawaii in February, when you can see 100 miles...it is rare, it requires us to seek it out...it may or may not be there, depending on conditions....this is the great metaphor for those moments we have in nature....

We need nature...we need sunlight, some of us more than others...

More to come on the green flash.....lots more....

The whiteflash....those moments when events just seem too serendipitous or sacred to be normal....you have the sense that God, if you are a believer, may just be giving you a signal...these moments may be beyond us to control or even hope for...they come like gifts....now, we can ask for signals, such as in prayers, but, nothing is guaranteed. Usually, whiteflash moments are benevolent and kind to us....sometimes they save us....they are beyond our understanding, but we do recognize them....

OK, that is the whole scope of where we are headed.....get ready for the ride of your life....if we can get these four flashes clear, look for them, experience them, we are headed to a full life and we can say we have pursued happiness....

In the weeks and months ahead, we will discuss these much more, share real life stories, I will share some of my own, and then, we will see what we have...

It is worth the complete journey and focus...
Much more on the way, as always....

The Four Great Flashes of Life

This blog exists to support those in conscious search for their life purpose. I believe we can find one that makes our life whole, rich, where everything comes together and makes sense. I've researched this and write on the topic. It is my own passion and central purpose to help people find theirs....the blue flash is the far end of the light prism, rare light....it suggests that when the moment occurs, your life is like a new day.....blue sky....energy...hope...dreams come alive...

Some may have seen as the sun goes down over the horizon... it is seen by only a few... the last part of the prism of light, as the sun disappears, there is a flash of green... this is really a metaphor for seeking special moments in nature, God's gift to us in the environment of nature... we do need those moments... crisp air in a winter morning after a fresh snowfall... the whisper of mist from a waterfall on our face... I have seen the green flash once... on the beach in Hawaii... it is a real phenomenon...

The Pink Flash is romantic love which touches most all of us sooner or later and some of us several times. It is like a whoosh... before you know it, you are so bonded with another in a rush of romance... it can be ageless, unplanned, can end in joy or pain... we all need this to be truly human, and yet we are learning about it all our lives... the lessons go on and get some of us so engrossed and confused, we often think we are starting all over again... yet we must learn from each one and must follow our heart... no easy answers here, just that we cannot avoid this so human part of our full life... when the pink (heart) flash truly hits, you feel like you are in a free fall... its power in life is among the greatest gifts.

Whatever a person's faith, there are moments when each of us seems to be spoken to directly or given a clear signal by the Creator. I call these ``white moments". Time stands still. There is no worldly explanation. Logic is defied. But an answer is given. A gift seems to be delivered. A messenger shows up. Something unexplainable occurs. Some people spend more time with this, actively pursuing the Creator' guidance. Others deny the Creator, yet admit that they see answers that they cannot trace to a source. Can we pursue answers actively? Can we learn to invoke these powers? A full life seems to include the awareness that we are searching and that this search gets richer and richer as we grow... in the life-long pursuit of happiness, it is hard to avoid some moments that are unexplainable and seem too unreal to be true...

The Blue Flash is the moment when one sees one's life purpose. Laying out in front of your feet just like a pathway. Some see it as a picture. Not everyone has this one. Those lucky ones who do describe the moment with excitement. It always takes place with some other loved one present, always takes place in a peaceful place, and people describe that their themes of life come together in a single concept or idea. It can be a company, a career goal, an idea of a central project for one's life... why we seem to justify our existence, education. It seems to occur at mid life, rarely early. People seem to need some pain and confusion and wandering before it is achieved. BUT, those who find it and follow it are the happiest on earth. They seem also to be the bravest, the toughest, and most willing to help others find it. It becomes a passionate pursuit of happiness at the highest level.
